Cain · **Need info / Help on RCM RC8T conversion -** 02.01.2009, 02:17 AM

Hey guys. I got to race my RCM RC8T yesterday, and it was a blast. Mike really got the how layout right with this. Just now need the plastic spur to get rid of the noise and I am set!

Anyway, there is one thing I need info on, not sure if its an issue yet but since it occurred twice in the same day, needed to see if anyone else had this happen.

When racing, I managed to break my front chassis brace plastic eyelet end that goes into the front top plate twice. The first time I figured it was a fluke, but the second time was using the piece I had no issues with from my RC8 ( gone to plastic chassis braces, worked great), and that snapped. Albeit it was a pretty good hit. But, I hadn't heard of this before happening.

So my concern is that maybe I am getting too much flex in the chassis up front?

Thoughts?

I am running the following:

Castle Creations 2200Kv Motor
PolyRC 6000mah 4S Battery pack

thanks before hand.
