Hyper ST CF Chassis Conversion - 12.22.2008, 03:38 PM

Sup guys, as you know I have a BL Hyper ST with a 600XL, MMM and a 6s NeuEnergy lipo. Its ungodly heavy (in a bad way) at 10lb 14oz RTR. IE- time for a diet. Lutach thinks that I could get my truck around 7lb RTR. I will be making a 3mm CF chassis with a hybrid alum front to take care of the kickup. I will also upgrade the truck some along the way with a new DX3S radio system, possibly a better motor, and just fixing the things that need a little love. I will ditch the center diff in lieu of a ofna solid centre with a 51t plastic spur. I will also change the springs and go thru the entire truck, helping it out a bit. I don't have any pictures at the moment because I do not have a hookup cable for my camera. I am getting my milling machine tomorrow (only 363 days later than planned) and will be purchasing the CF sheet shortly thereafter. Thanks for reading everyone and have a great one!


Get me back into RC!
