Talking Swapped the chassis on my RF!! :)

Finished the 'Nib-Force' and been testing yesterday in the Garden before the snow decended!!, works a treat with a 27t brushed motor and 2 cell, but im fitting a Losi 4800kv and 3 cell, just waiting for a ESC

As soon as the weather clears up im gonna shoot a vid as it seems unstoppable on really steep climbs and the Rocklin RC4WD tyres compound and tread cling really well to edges of bricks and rocks.

I've now put RC4WD metal rod ends on shocks, and am gonna fit HS gears but only got one set so far, trying to get hold of em in the UK is so difficult.....................

The silver CF chassis is light as a feather and C of G really low.....

Will post vid of it running after the weekend as lond as the snow goes!!

Well your RockForce looks great. That chassis looks like a nice addition.

It is also a well executed build. Good job.

We all know everything comes to a halt when it snows over here. Let's have some Rock Force snow action... There's more forecast.
