Default 5Th Dimension Mark ll Chassis Swap to Dominator.

I received some new side plates from 5TH Dimension to replace the Minimal Chassis.
5Th Dimension new MOA Chassis " Mark ll"This chassis is cut from G10 has more adjustability for tuning, Double sheer side plates for added strength, plus looks better than its predecessor.





This is going be a easy/fast chassis swap. I will continue my berg build in this thread. I wasn't able to use all the cross braces from the Minimal chassis the shock mount cross braces are to short for the new chassis. I orderd a few cross braces from Erik D-lux should have them Thursday.
above is a quick mock up picture.
I'm really digging the look of this chassis.
Thanks 5D (Travis).

Just a few pics chassis is packed with Holmes Hobbies br mini x2 esc's. These little sucker have a lot of power, only half my batteries out of 30 can handle the power draw that these esc demand (for now). I'm going to pick up some 430mah max amp 100c batteries maybe these can supply/feed the br mini's the voltage they need..









Thanks 5TH Dimension..... Can't wait to get this rig on the rocks.

Those BR minis will definately weed out any bad batteries you got!

The crawler looking great. I'm also going to get some of the max amp packs for the same reason.

If you make it out to our next comp you can get an up close look & test drive if you'd like.

Default Re: 5Th Dimension Mark ll Dominator Chassis Swap.

Picked up a package from post office yesterday look what was inside Mark II Dominator chassis.
Swapped out my original Mark II bodied chassis getting ready for AZ SHOOTOUT this weekend.
5th dimension did an awesome job on this chassis can't wait to get it on the rocks.
Thanks Travis.

Chassis geo is a less cluttered version of the Mark II, which has been in testing for about 6 months now with lots of positive feedback. I placed 6th in our series points this season (WCRCC) with my Mark II chassis bodied rig.

These are currently cut from 1.5mm CF. Lexan side panels will act as "sliders" for the rear shocks and get us over the 3" minimum.
