Has the panel templates been posted somewhere.

I've searched and can't seem to find them.

This chassis passes tech with ease. When I had mine at the Nationals it actually fell short measuring 12.25"

Maybe check with Rockdrifter. He practically had a production line going:

I have a CAD file for panels but have had trouble keeping proportions when translating to PDF...and haven't had enough time to look deeper into the issue causing that.

I gave the CAD file to Michelle so she should have the proper PDF of it available.

Shoot her a p.m. she has the CAD file for the panels to do internal skins for the Mantis. Order up a set of her custom internal BAD AZZ skins then cut your panels too fit.

I just finished assembling my Mantis today and just noticed the revised bent upper links. Not sure of that change has been mentioned in this thread but I have no binding in anything as I had read about in a build here.

Hello!

Does the Mantis chassis work with Bully 2 axles yet? I'd like to purchase one, but want to make sure my axles fit.

Thank you,

Travis Bredon
