Chassis Braces help

[fasa_00]

I saw someone that had a CG-2 mini and had hexed Chassis Braces. He used the chassis braces with Lexan to mount his esc and receiver. I tried searching the forum for about 1 1/2 but couldn't find the picture. Does any one know where I can get the hexed chassis brace. Thanks

Where did you buy the hex rod from?

Mine are not "hex" shaped, they are round. But, this idea may help you or someone else.

I used some extra Sac Racing suspension links I had sitting around. They were a little long; but, I unscrewed the all thread at the ends, filed them down a bit, and screwed them to the chassis.
