Here is shots of the chassis so far. Im just waiting on a new servo . Then I will post up a video of this thing in action. [IMG][/IMG] [IMG][/IMG] [IMG][/IMG] [IMG][/IMG] the shafts stayed in surprisingly but I will be limiting that from dropping so far [IMG][/IMG] New Servo next week some time so video soon ... or i might just take my servo/esc off my other McRC to try this out . |

So this mod gives you more articulation? Is that the function. Can you post a small video about it.

Video is with the articulation limited , 2s lipo, Needs more weight in the wheels. will post another one when I test more with more weight and 1s lipo and full articulation. I am very happy with it so far . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqsnXpy2ESY |

Very interesting concept, definitely seems better than in stock form. Good idea |

The chassis build continues . I weighted the front wheels allot more. braced up the TVP chassis. de-cased and liquid electrical taped the ESC. cut off and dremeled the infamous screw in the axle housing . here is the brace here is a shot of my ESC [IMG][/IMG] pic of axle screw cut off [IMG][/IMG] Another video with the new improvements as soon as it stops raining (I do run it in the rain but wet rock is not for testing) and this video will be against my other not so modified and stock chassis micro. As soon as my LHS gets me my damn servo. Everything about the chassis is working just like I wanted . Haven't found any down sides to it yet |
