Thats nice Will

, you are a brave man to expose the speedo's like that. I would never do it cause my junk takes a swim every now & then.

RcBro · 07-12-2011, 08:23 PM

I'll balloon them back up once the rain comes again.

I'm more worried about all the solder mods then the water lol

Thanks for the compliments guys!

Taking the rig apart for a quick rebuild before Goldendale. Figured I'd snap some better pictures of the Carbon Fiber Rock Logic Chassis. I was a little worried about strength, until the sunday at AWCC. I went playing and jumped off a good 5-8 super steep ridge and the car hit hard on the top chassis. No breaks! Very impressed.

Dang William until now I didn't know I had my front lowers backwards until I seen your links. Now I need to go change mine.

I tried to build mine looking at your pictures.

Glad I could help

Finally got around to installing my 4PL skins from Freq E. Man do I love the skins, but boy do I hate installing stickers lol.

The chassis is looking good. I've eyed over Carbon Chassis. Is there any delaminating happening on yours yet? In my years in planes and helis i've had a few carbon frames delaminate.

RcBro · 07-13-2011, 11:02 PM

None thus far, I'm sure a little CA would seal it but l haven't done it yet.

maeu2003 · 07-13-2011, 11:08 PM

Thats good. That was my biggest concern when looking at them. That and a side load break. Seems like it could be a weakness. I've not had good luck repairing that and keeping the strength.

My Rock Logic chassis fell about 10ft at our last comp and land on the roof. I see no frays or cracks in the carbon fiber.

Hey William. A little heat from a hair dryer or heat gun will take the rest of those little wrinkles off. It also allows the ends of the vinyl sticking up to better adhere to the surface.

I wanted to ask. What is your clearance off the front skid? I'm sittin' right under 3inches but would like a tad more. Are you also running 3.5inch shocks?

Rock Logic · 07-15-2011, 06:37 AM

hey mike i use shocks that are cap moded to 4 inch eye to eye

Thanks Lars. Mine are modded as well. My end link isn't tall enough so I'll add a spacer or find a longer end links. Thanks
