Yeah, i really like the CF frame, seeing your pics make me feel confident on my choice.. (i have choosen the CF over the aluminum)

What's next? FLM bulks?

Really sweet looking truck!

How much lighter is it, compared to stock?

RC-Monster Mike · 04.03.2005, 10:47 AM

Th CF chassis is about 2 oz lighter than stock. With the ext. kit, it is around the stock weight.

I've never had a set of deans plugs melt on me, and for doing a brushless system I would suggest that you hardwire it without using connectors.

well guys, i have my deans installed, yes bulks, diffs, diff cases, BL are all next, i am getting FLM bulks, integy diff cases( BLUE) , maxximizer diffs, fiegao 9l/warrior 9918, and a couple other things, the CF chassis seem alot lighter than stock, i dont know if its just me but the CF seems really half the weight of stock, it is also strong as a rock, that 1 crack i know you are thinking, why would he get CF if it cracked so bad, well that crack was a really hard hit, i think the aluminum wouldve bent really really badly, well i will have some more pics soon with some vids when i get my BL.

The only time I have seen a cracked CF part was due to a HARD hit with loose screws. If the screws are tightened all around, the thing is near bulletproof.

Thats soo true mike, but my srews were all tight, maybe too tight ?

RC-Monster Mike · 04.03.2005, 11:40 AM

I thought you damaged yours removing a screw?

Sylvester · 04.03.2005, 11:45 AM

Yup, it was beacause of a screw than a hit, i forgot to mention the hit, when i was changing all my screws to the ones the g-maxx stuff came with it was soo tight that i stripped a screw than, after that i installed everything and took it for a test run, (in base ment, ) i went off a 3 foot jump into the wall, i broke my front skid and the front plate, thats the story, Georges screws are really good, the ones i was using were probably the worst screws money can buy, oh well, thats life.
