Wow those tube chassis are so cool that it makes me want an MRC more than an Axial.

Compare the width of the VMG axle to the width of LMC axles. Reference the link mount points and try to estimate the link mount points. If they are much narrower then you will likely not be able to use the Tubers, but the L-Trail is just the side rail so you could make your own skid to the width you need.

These Tubers are the sh!t. Thanks for having mine PC'd in Red. Looks really cool in person. You even took the time to assemble it with "those proto" parts we talked about. WOW, Josh you are the man!

Harley said he has 4 more Tuber's to ship out to "testers" better hit the PM button fast guys. These babies are gonna fly off the shelves.

I am just going to forward you all these damn PM's I get. And you know damn well you asked for those frames to be PC'd in YELLOW!

They won't be too long.

No pre-orders.

Testing was done prior to production.

When more info is available it will be posted. Less than the Edge can be expected.

crawladan · 10-20-2008, 07:25 PM

Thank you its pretty sad the price will probably have dropped by the time i get one because im not getting one till christmas

I got a couple of questions for the mini edge and eclipse chassis. It appears they are meant as a droop type suspension for both. Will the kit offer internal shock springs? I know you can buy them now seperately from TCS. Will you be offering these chassis with more than one shock mounting location for front and rear?
Judging by the pics there is not much room from the body/tube to the y upper link. Can we still use the stock battery on these frames?
And lastly can we get a pic of full electronics mounted in and on these tube chassis? More pics to appease the masses, please.

I'd also love to see a pic with a lipo mounted on the upper links. I'm still concerned that the cross bar on the tuber will interfere with flex with a lipo mounted on the front uppers.

Will the Eclipse and mini edge be comp legal? Can we get some answers to our questions. Harley can you please give us some inside info for some of the groups questions? No release dates or pricing issues are raised, just design questions.
