| The crooked-banana-cucumber-chassis.
So i got a MRC and came up (yeah right - I reinvented the wheel ) with some creatively milled, filed and lathed pieces of plastic to finally build my first chassis period. Now I know why people like to buy working and well designed chassis. Now that itīs done I know a ton of stuff I didnīt think about. Anyways, I put it together and see how itīll work. Definately better than the stocker... Uli |

Little progress. I kept the stocker body and dressed it up with some "Skullz of Death". The rest is slowly getting there. Most important now is building rims and getting rubber on them... |

Is that the RX zip tied to the top? What is it? It looks pretty small. Whats the price on it too if you don't mind. Any specs on what your running? I see the high steer knuckles. Do you think they are worth the price? I'm tempted to get a set but have other things I want to get first. |

@ all: thanks @ Losi Man: Those are the 3-racing shocks. besides the loose springs they seem to be ok. Havenīt field tested them yet, though. @ Mutant_Xj: Yes, thatīt the receiver, itīs a modded Hobbyking 2,4GHz 6-channel receiver. I built a little microswitch for binding in it, swapped out the pins, cut the antenna and shrinktubed it. Iīll use it with my 2,4GHz-modded Procar 707 ( MPX Procar go 2.4Ghz ) The knuckles are Egressors high steering knuckles and they are well worth it. |
