| HAHA ANOTHER torsion stick
i saw what you guys were upto and i had to try my hand at one. it needs alot of tweaking. it only flexes about 4 inches. it weighs 3.9lbs without servo reciever esc and dshafts. ill be making another for a stealth as soon as i find myself a decent stealth... |

i cut it a little too far but i can get it to flex one wheel up on a roll of toilet paper. however tall that is this took me about an hour to make without getting strict on dimensions and all that its alot less work than 10 hours for one of my csc1s ! |

About 12-13 oz.'s lighter! About 4 for the motor, 7 for the battery and 1-2 depending on the ESC your using now.

13ozs lighter? holy crap!. i could go nuts and get a bunch of associated alum screws too ! i could also take some weight out by making integrated axle mounts so i dont need so many screws (a whopping 6) it also gets 4-5 inches of flex. however tall a roll of TP is haha. i cant wait to see what itll do. edit: the esc is a duratrax intellispeed. edit: will there be any rock racers in moab? i could throw my 12 turn reedy in this thing...
