Muggy chassis - 04.29.2009, 11:24 PM

I'm ready to buy a hardened chassis for my Muggy. InnovativeRC is out of stock. Anyone know where to get one?

The IRC chassis is the only other one I know of. Why not use a stock chassis?


All I ever wanted was an honest weeks pay for an honest days work.

if you can wait just a bit, innovativerc will have a brushless chassis for the muggy.
I'm using a prototype right now and Robert is finalising the design.

Thanks guys, I'm tempted to wait for the BL chassis if it's coming soon.

send him a mail through his shop. might speed things up a bit.
he should be making the 2nd prototype soon. the first was already very good. he was only going to add some lighting pockets. the chassis will work with rc-m's motor mount and battery tray.

Don't know about pricing. Check his site to see the price for his nitro Muggy chassis. My guess is it won't be far off.

Here's a pic of the new chassis. Tell me what you think. THe chassis is 4mm thick and the spur gear hole is closed, so you'll be limited to a 46t spur. I like it this way because now the chassis has no holes for dirt to come in.

Send him an email and ask about the chassis. I already have the chassis but haven't run it yet bc I'm waiting for a new steering servo....

What have you done to get the slop out of the steering? I thought i heard something about using traxxas parts or do you have the same problem?

you can replace the stock steering link with a jato turnbuckle and replace the bushings with bearings.
