Thanks for that Serum;

KK, I got a quote for machining these things, and it looks like one will be expensive, and over, say, a few reproductions, the cost would come way down to very affordable. I don't want to state the price on the forum here though, for obvious reasons.

But if I hear enough serious interest in one, I would like to go back and do a little more refining of the design, as people have said they would like 'upper servo mounts', and longer battery tray. I could also loose more weight if i had the time too.

Also, it will cost no more to make the bottom chassis plate from 7075 alloy than 6061. However, the cost is quite a bit higher for 6.25mm 7075 (chassis braces). I'll see what i can do though, and maybe i'll try testing 4.7mm (.1875") 7075?

Cheers

Zero
