The chassis is very stiff, it has foldups on the sides to add strength but will see how it holds up in the long run. I want to run 6s !! I have a couple different motors and speedos to try if I ever get it done. Havnt weighed it yet but it's still pretty light at this point in the build. I plan on a full cage and maybe some carbon fiber panels . Wont have any idea on the steering till I get it running .


The wheel may be turning, but the hamster's dead .

It looks fantastic. One more question. What wheels/tires are you going to use? I am really enjoying mine. I was never really drawn to 1/5 scale before but the only other guy I knew that was in to rc went to 1/5 gas vehicles.

I really want wheels that looks buggy-like I was thinking some 40's in the rear and 38's up front ?

On a side note , I ran 1/5 scale cars for a couple of years , there is probably nothing cooler on the planet !!! They arnt super fast , not lightning quick , but theres nothing like running those monsters with 3-5 others at the same time !!! Only problem was they were kinda like the "big boy toys " and few people had them . We went from 7 people down to 4 down to 2 to just me , so I sold and moved on. If you get a chance to drive one GO FOR IT !!!
we could draft, push , and run touching side by side with them !!
Not something you can do with 10th scale

great looking build. i have a couple i am working on now and i love it & hate it. love the time building...can spend 12 hours and the garage and not know it. but hate the money i spend and hate waiting for parts/materials. anyway, you all get it. its an addiction we all share. i was thinking of bagging my latest project with christmas here and trying to get my $2k back by throwing all the parts on ebay but your build has inspired me to stick with it. i cant turn my back on this hobby now. i am in too deep. thanks for the post of your awesome build.
