now that the chassis has shipped, any info on the links?

So far I've set it up with Axial and TLTs for 2.2. These measurements are using the RCP Ax10/TLT Aluminum Servo Plates With link Mounts #12050. The stock axial 3-link will be about the same but you may want to run a bit longer upper front if you're keeping the 3-link.

TLT 2.2
Front Upper = 45mm
Front Lower = 70mm
Rear Upper = 70mm
Rear Lower = 70mm

Axial 2.2
Front Upper = 55mm
Front Lower = 70mm
Rear Upper = 70mm
Rear Lower = 70mm

sorry to ask this again if it's been asked before, but has anyone used a proline bushwacker/FJ front nose on one of these yet, to kind of simulate a tubed up FJ?

This chassis looks a lot like the timberwolf from RC4Wd, is there a major difference between the 2 that anyone can shed some light on?

Pretty much everything about the two is different, I can elaborate later when I have some more free time.

As soon as I get mine I will be heading to the LHS to see.



Have they all shipped or just a part of them? Mine still doesn't say shipped.

We are shipping them in the order they were received. We have a lot of these to ship guys and we can only process so many per day along with our other regular orders.

As far as teh FJ hood. No it is not a direct fit. I'm sure with some work it could probably be done though. We may release an FJ style hood, and some others later that will be a direct fit.

I was there yesterday to pick mine up. I believe some have shipped and more on the way. This is a killer chassis and I am once again interested in building a scaler. Great work RCP. Here is mine as a roller, much to do.

That's fine, just wondering. And yes, you should make an FJ style hood.

sweet.... that hood on it now looks like a section of the HPI wrangler body....

also, has anyone tried one of these as a 2.2 comp rig? or would it be a bit tooo top heavy for that?

OK thanks, I'm more curious than anything. I've seen some nice timberwolf builds and was wondering what the differences between the 2 chassis are. Is one more scale than the other etc...? Thanks again

First off, I'm not going to say one is better than the other, they are just different. The buyer can decide which one is better for them depending on what they want. This is just a couple of the things I can think of off the top of my head. You can look at the Timberwolf and see how it compares to some of the following stuff, for better or worse.

Wreckluse -
Full tube chassis
Replicates a production 1:1 chassis as close as you can for an rc
Designed to perform well, then look good. (This is how I design all of my chassis, I don't care how good it looks if it can't perform well)
Chassis proportions are scaled to use 2.2 tires or 1.9 tires and still look incredibly scale
Built out of solid rod and tig welded = super strong
Only costs $220 with all panels and hood included
Has been tested thorouhly so all tweaks and modifications have been worked out before production so you get the best chassis possible
Works well with all shafty axles on the market
Free sticker sheet with cool 1:1 logos

Is it safe to assume that these measurements are "eye to eye"?

Mine hasn't shipped yet:-( so I'm just trying to get a few things figured out ahead of time.
Thanks,
Pat
