Yup yup...it drives very nice and was capable of doing much better if it wasn't being controlled by a sick driver with way too little comp practice. I just have to get some hardware for yours before it ships...and the bodys look awesome!

Man your rig looks good too. You have the electronics mounted up much nicer than I have. Do you have cross braces on yours? I tried to mount a cross brace to mount electronics, but it stiffened up the chassis so much. I ended up using a piece of bike tire innertube and some zip ties to make a platform between the upper links. This allowed a flexable but stable place to stick things. Not sure if it is because of the smaller tire in your flex pic, but your design looks to have more "free" flex. I'm sure that you can twist it damn near in half if you wanted, but the "free" flex is what is nice. You can always limit it with the upper link position. |

Must have fallen into a hole or something and missed this whole thread!? Great video and execution of design. Love the steering too! All around a unique chassis for the mini. Do you really feel that Delrin will "break in" though? I cannot imagine it doing that as it is a cast/rolled plastic with (some) memory. Sure you can heat it and bend it to stay, but break in? Just curious? Oh, and if that dig releases soon I will have to buy another mini just for it as I have one of VF's first releases still going strong on a 225. I swear by that dig and the fact that without it I could not drive, lol. Never had a single problem and I'll bet the mini dig will be the same. Hell, I'll even rally for a "Dig Class" for the mini here, lol. Last edited by O.C.D.; 01-28-2009 at 01:02 PM. |
