Default Laydown Chasis?

Right now I have a BULU2 chasis and it works real well but I'm looking for something to get my CG lower with a laydown style chasis. I thought about making something myself but I wanted to see what all was out there already. I know of the SW2 and the RBX chasis what else is there? TIA....

There is the Vertical Smile and the P4 is also new I didn't read up on it though, so I don't know if it can do a laydown pede.

Check out my thread "The Grunt". The chassis is the prototype of the RD XL4. You can mount a tranny of any type just about anyway you want. PM me for more info on the XL4!

"The Grunt" looks prety cool, how dose it perform? I'm looking for something that will work with the Pede trany since I have 2 of them already. Where can I find some info on the P4?

Here's a couple build-up threads about the P4. The P4 does use a laydown style tranny and if you order the link mounts with it, they double as mounting plates for your electronics. This keeps everything very low.

And here's my build thread with the final version of the chassis.
