Hello, i would like to introduce my Super Class Clod. The chassis concept what i like most is the pimp cane and i tried to build my own cane style. Looking for an other way i don't choose an aloy profile, i take a sheet of lexan an bent it in "U" shape. The first test runs have shown that there is to much flex in it (are 180° of twist enough?) but with an additional 3mm Lexan backbone the twist is like i want it. Motors are two venom fireball 50T with 9T front and 8T rear pinion fired by 6-cell split pack with 4000mAh power. Kuckles are 1:8 buggy/truggy style with 8mm shaft diameter an 17mm hex and narrowed axial 8 hole rims (narrowed down to 48mm). ...but now let's have a look inside:        ... a lil video will follow  Greatings from germany Frank |

Dr. Frank, What knuckles are you using? They look like they have been trimmed well so you can get full steering. Carl |

Dr. Frank, Not that I am being picky or a smart a$$ but shouldn't your signature read "Greetings from Germany" and not "Greatings from Germany"? Carl |
