The Matrix Concepts carbon fiber losi 8ight chassis

[spcpicard]

I've been running their chassis since late December and haven't had any problems. To keep wear to a min. I use the De racing front bump skid and the rear one. On the rear one I add a thin line of CA glue in the front to keep it from curling and ripping off (bonds great with CF), which was a problem running it on my nitro. I also run the xtreme CF front shock tower instead of the MC one as it's a little thicker.

we did some investigating and figured out the two front holes were about 1mm off and that wasn't letting the screws sit down all the way on the chassis.

he was very cool on the phone and truely sounded sorry for not getting back to me sooner.We talked about the production and he said i was the first person who has had this problem and that he was sending a new chassis UPS 3day and he was going to test fit it just to make sure i didnt get another odd ball

i also got pics of the of their brushless conversion comeing out

I NEED that

Hi,
I Really like your Matrix Concepts Inc, Carbon Fiber Chassis and your entire 1/8th scale buggy.
will you please tell me what center drive shafts your using, and what outdrives are connected to your center drive shafts? Are these also from Matrix Concepts Inc? I looked at your photo album and saw some closer pictures that showed some great detail of your buggy. Thank you for the pictures. Please let me know what kind of center drive shafts you're using. Thank you. This is my first post here, so I hope I can figure out how to find your message once you've respond to me. Though, if this forum works anything like the RCtech forum, I should be ok. Thank you for having me as a member. Looking forward to learning allot here. And buying a Complete Matrix Concepts Inc, Carbon Fiber Chassis Kit. Thank you in advance.

PS. And if anyone can answer this question regarding the type of center drive shafts and outdrives being used on this Losi 8ight-E buggy pictured just bellow, I would very much apprecieate it. Thank you in advance.

The shafts or stock, the couplers are the losi HD lightened ones. Get u a pin press and change out the front pin that wears,and the shaft will last a while. There are several different pics where I was using diff couplers, some where aluminum, the most recent were fioroni flex couplers.
