Project: Savage Flux 5T

online metals are a pretty good place to get material. I have also used ebay before, not sure who I used but it was a store on there that only did metal. Get 6061 at least, that is what I used for my stretched tvps. Not sure on the thickness but it was thicker than the stock flux tvps.

Ok, thanks. The stock flux I think are only 2.5mm. The XLs are 3mm, but they are kinda flexible by hand. The TCS Crawlers stuff, by hand without alot of torque, are pretty unflexible but they weigh a lot which is why I think I'll try 4mm as a happy medium.

I had thought about talking to Mike, but he had previously told me his machines wouldn't do a stretch (7.5") RC8T truggy chassis; not to mention another query about custom work to bore out a flux motor mount has gone unanswered. :(
