My new project on the way!!

This a previous incarnation of my Rustler. The tranny flipping works wonders for corner handling. I think you'll be pleased with that. Just be careful accelerating because it does remove weight from the rear end.

Don't think that somebody had do this beforeexcuse me to having take your idea, but i realy don't know it
But your Rustler look very good. Can you tell me which shock have you put on rear and on front??

Looks cool, I was thinking about doing the same thing. I have my slash with 17mm hexes and the full offset wheels. It looks good, but the center of the chassis is too tall for my taste. A scratch built chassis looks like a good idea to me! I look forward to seeing your progress.

Hey james, the design of the chasis is not finish yet, i wait for the MP777 body for have the good lenght and wide, and i'll redisign it next week, as soon as i'll have the body.
The only missing thing will be the 17mm adapters that you've order for me

I'll keep you inform of the projet each time i'll do something new

Forget to tell you that i'll lightly bend the chassis on each side (like on a stadium chassis) to give some strenght to the aluminium plate, because it's not a 7075-t6 plate, it's a standard, realy easy to drill aluminium.

Just find a 3.11mm carbon fiber plate for a great price. So i've decided to continue the projet with a carbon fiber plate to the place of the aluminium one.

Thanks David. I can't take credit for this idea either. I don't know who did it first, but I doubt it was me.

The rear shocks are Proline Powerstroke shocks. They are amazing in both quality and performance, but good luck finding a set. They aren't being made anymore. The front shocks are the front shocks off a Duratrax Evader buggy. I do want to replace them with something else as they aren't quite as long as I'd want. The springs aren't very stiff either, hence they are almost 100% pre-loaded.

Oo carbon fiber! Nice! You'll need to figure out a method for bracing since you wont be able to bend the edges up like the aluminum. It will be much lighter though.

Nice! I have a friend who sell a kit of power stoke shock for a great price.
For the bracing of the carbon fiber chassis, no problem, i'll use a set of rustler turnbuckle.

Very cool. I hope to see more progress soon!

OK dear friends, here is the most recet pics of my project, almost done.
The only missing item is my MMM V3, but i'll have it next week, it's E-Mike who've it and it is suppose to ship it to me this week-end.
For the body, i'll take my time and make a great paint job during this long winter.
I've make the frame in aluminium, but this winter i'll make a final frame in my 3.2mm carbon plate.
Here's the pics:








And now, are you ready for the work of art????
I present you the inventor
Sorry guys, but i've remove this pic......to bad for those of you who have miss it
