|  CPE Claw
Got my CPE Claw today and just wanted to hear from people about the finish of the chassis, My chassis seems to be very ruff around the edges even my servo mounts, I will be honest I tried to save money by getting the Claw but I'am not Happy should have spent a little more for the NN but ultimately I'am looking for performance so, can't wait to see what it can do |

I got a prototype (chassis #4) and the finish is great! It also crawls really well! PM Brett and talk to him about it. |

Maybe it's because it is a prototype and prototypes are finshed for display purposes, I wish I got a prototype, I could have cut mine with my dremel. |

My links weren't polished either, but it is a crawler, not a shelf queen.  I do remember that I took a wire brush in my Dremel to my servo mount and knocked the edges off, no big deal IMO. Last edited by dezfan; 09-02-2006 at 12:26 AM. |

What happen to my chassis then? I have no complaints about the links but my chassis is hacked not worth my $145 I paid I think I might look into a refund it is the complete opposite of my SW2 for my tlt that thing is beautiful I know the material used is not costly so most of the cost goes to the labor and design time. Bottom line my chassis shows very poor craftmanship and poor quality control . NOT LOOKING FOR A SHELF QUEEN Last edited by TOYBOY; 09-02-2006 at 12:52 AM. |

I'm sorry you're unhappy with the chassis as we've had great response to our products to date. If you would like to send the entire kit back we'll refund your payment. I apologize for the inconvenience.

What was the problem with your chassis? i have bought not one but 4 chassis from CPE and i have the highest regard for their fit and finish, take in consideration i also own an NN, a Vertical smile and some others, i have no idea what could be your problem with it.

Sorry can't post picks but decided just to clean it up with my dremel performance and simplicity is what I'am looking for and after this thread I see people consider it in high regards, so I think I will keep mine. |

That's all I did on my servo mounts, very easy and the end product is well worth the extra effort!

I think you'll like it. It's a very unique design! Make sure all 4 tires are weighted. |
