I used to run a BMV comp TLT....it worked quite well, but I couldn't keep from bending the wires so I got rid of the chassis. As long as you have a body over the chassis, it is legal.

There is just newer stuff out there these days....

thats pretty badass man!

this hobby has really taken me by storm.....

and im really planning out a new comp rig for next year. (taxes bitches)


right now im leaning towards berg axels and a stick chassies, or bergs and another SWX or kamakzie chassis, or a MOA losi.

But maybe, just maybe my faith and loyalty will be upheld and Axial will come out with something worth my while.

i am an advocate of simplicity, and the sticks and BMV really appeal to that aspect of my personality.

Yeah, the chassis is definitely a simple one. It does take some getting used to....you have to be easy on the throttle or else it will be rather bouncy...
