Is that a pull-off between the Panthers and Losis?

What happen was he used bent delrin link's in the rear(It must have alum, straight link's to give proper support). Instead of giving the support needed they just rotated under pressure and allowed the chassis to bend......oh ya, and it's a thinner version that had already bent when it was given to him....so it had a weak link already.

This is no longer an issue, specifically because all proper hardware and higher quality alum. and design will come with DNA production unit's.

A hard flip on to a pointed rock that stabbed the chassis and cut the rear servo wire in half ...it was so clean I would sworn it was cut by sabatoge if it had worked prior to that.

Yeah bent delrin links blow....Unfortunatly I had to use bent links to dip under the side mounted servo.They only lasted 1x comp on the 2.2 Berg also :-(
.035 wall stainless holds up much nicer

Almost eveything had to be special made since I am running my axles, and there were a few challenges.

Good thing is everytime I break something the next version is usally better.

Thanks for the Chassis Jason
