Default cboggs Titanium Pro chassis

I finally got tired of breaking chassis plates, so I upgraded to some Infectious R/C titanium chassis plates for the pro. These are a direct bolt on, no mods required and will definately be the last plates I will ever have to buy.

Are the stock plates common for breaking?

Yes, the stock plates break just in front of the lower link mounts. Super gluing the edges on the c/f helps but they will still break. This will fix the problem for good!

Intersting, guess I havent been around long enough, but hadnt heard of the stock plates breaking yet. Will have to keep an eye out for that. Thanks for the heads up.

I've seen several pics of broken losi pro chassis now,glad I didn't buy one.The Ti plates should be bullet proof for you.I'll stick with my Gatekeeper designs chassis.

I loved my GC3, but for a Pro for $65 and you could throw the carbon chassis away or sell it and still be ahead $100+ dollars.

The Pro is the best chassis I've run and I've ran them all to find out which was the best. After running it for a year+ I decided it was time to fix the chassis breakage issue once and for all. More updates are in the mail for this car....
