Not bad, looks like it could use some braces on the front section if the chassis. what kind of body are you going to run? |

body is gonna be my old bronco body, once i get the body posts. i'm gonna have to open up the wheelwells a bit on her, since i just gained 1.5 inches of wheelbase over the previous version. the teflon doesn't flex much, so i doubt it'll have to add any extra braces, but we'll see. it has one an inch or so behind the upper shock mounts, front and rear. also a w2x2ish teflon skid under the tranny, and the stock tlt battery mount thing in the rear to hold the electronics. i made the inner width of the chassis the same as a stock tlt, so i could use the braces and other stuff of that width |

got the body posts, and the body is on. i might open up the wheelwells more, and lower the body a bit more. it just barely rubs as is, so going lower will mean bigger wheel openings...so much for scale, huh? the battery lasts a very long time. it has lasted thru 3 20 minute indoor test sessions, and i still haven't recharged it yet. it was only $20 at ultimate hobbies. i may have to pick up another... |

The wheelwells look fine to me. If you do cut them bigger I'd lower that body some..
