Default TRX4 HoneyVan #2 sweet Yellow Oker RIP

This is my TRX four side project the rig is pretty hopped up with hot racing and Castle Mamba X Reefs and then some... etc.
but it’s just really made to be a pretty functional capable vehicle with two high body posts I put this pro line van body which I love since I’m a beekeeper everything’s gonna have these on it or a bee theme to some extent and this one already has cracked completely I’ll have some pictures for it my wife is actually fixing it with Modge podge which I use on all my cars to increase flexibility and strength And check them out...
Keep building keep buzzing...

If I had to guess, not noticeably top heavy. Polycarbonate is fairly weightless compared to the frame/drivetrain. I have noticed no discernible difference in cg with the body removed on mine, it still flips over lol.

hey guys thanks for the comments that rig is bottom heavy the van body really does not affect performance other than the four corners getting caught in different positions but I'm going to cut the wells even higher and trim the bumpers but its damn functional and runs real nice with the mamba x Holmes pro custom motor
and
for my brass my best combo has been to keep it LOW so I use Hot Racing brass on the front diff cover and portal covers and yeah racing brass wheel hexes on all four and with the aluminum the weight is pretty well distributed!!

to me its all about functionality and capable working rig that looks cool too...

BUZZZ...

yeah Phil I did the test on some side slopes with the van body and it did nothing different really now visually it looks like it does but in reality its an optical illusion! now my bodies usually have 5 coats of
Modge Podge clear sealant it seals the pain job really well and flexible so it hardens protects and is flexible!!! BUZZZ
