Sadly, still the original. Im hoping with the metal battery tray and servo mount it will stiffen the truck up some.. Not really looking to spend the cash on a hd chassis..

from the looks of it i would think it would, or at least help a bit.
I'm not to familiar with these chassis's so i cant say for sure,
but then again depends on how and where you drive it...

Yea, well the most air it gets (or will) is from my made ramps, so it should take a beating hopefully. If not then I will buy a new chassis, or maybe make one?

I would love to see someone make one in 4-5mm-ish carbon fiber.

Considering i am going to need a new chassis eventually anyhow.
I would throw money towards one...

d3lap · 01.23.2012, 10:54 PM

I would just re create the stock one in CF Its generally pretty flat so it would work alright. I think it would be awesome!, expensive tho. And skid plates would have to be made, no chance im leaving carbon fibre bare.

carbon fiber chassis, titanium skids.

makes me wish i knew how to fiberglass or form carbon fiber...

That could make one hell of a chassis...

d3lap · 01.23.2012, 11:42 PM

yea i know! trouble it its supper expensive, and i dont have the means or skill to make a carbon fibre chassis. Not sure i could trust myself either haha thats quiet a bit of money to spend on a sheet of fabric.

devious1 · 01.24.2012, 12:34 AM

I wonder if there is any where i can send a chassis to to have one made,
Time to Yahoo.

Im sure you could, but the price would be in the hundreds..
carbon fibrre 5mm thick with the dimensions needed for the truck would be ell over 100-150$
machining of the chassis would cost quite a bit as well.

The Innovative-RC chassis is 4mm aluminum, very stout.

d3lap · 01.24.2012, 05:14 PM

If the stock one goes, ill replace it

d3lap · 01.26.2012, 05:20 PM

Well ran it today, put about 11 minutes on the lipo, it was in storage mode and didnt not have all the power. Conditions were soggy and cold, -4 but it was wet outside, slide around a lot but the taped badlands did well, they didnt balloon at all! Here are some pictures, deciding whether or not i should post the video of the run..

ugh, it was clean..

the camera,

how it got dirty, im not sure..
