Mike's crt.5 suspension kit...

[captain harlock]

Good day guys!

Do you know when is Mike going to put the crt.5 suspension system on sale?

[captain harlock]

Well, this seems like a 'no' then..sigh...

[mothman]

crt.5 suspension system? I havent heard about this before. I only know that Mike has conversion set for the chassis. I might missed the discussion..

i think you are speaking of the aluminum extended suspension arms, that give it a more scale appearance

i have not heard anything for a while

Well, there was a set of them on Mike's CRT.5 at RCX, although he's still working on the design to get them just right. As of now they have holes for mounting the stock shocks, and Mike is going to hopefully be adding some extra shock mounting holes for other longer shocks.

Take a look: And thats metalman's CRT.5 in the background.

DAMN!!! Now this is what I'm talking about.

I see an RC-Monster aluminum front upper plate, the aluminum suspension kit, and a nice battery bar holder.
Hey, jnev, will this new battery bar be able to hold the regular size lipos like the TrakPower4900mah?
I hope it will.

lol, it looks like Mike should just release a RCM-branded "CRT.6" because there's not a whole heck of a lot left that's stock! If he came up with new shock towers and shock solution, you could use regular 8th scale front/rear/center diffs and shocks and it would be a totally different vehicle!

So I might buy a new crt.5

LOL

I am sorry, but I did not get exact measurements of it... However, I am sure Mike can make the tray to fit whatever packs you would like. The main feature of the tray is that it kind of keys into the chassis, so it can't move. Its an awesome design, but a little hard to explain in words. The chassis is also version 2 with extra mounting holes on the side and back of the chassis.

That tray shown in the picture would be for something like a Maxamps 4200mah (2p 2100mah) pack. Mike brought along one of his regular trays which could be fitted to the chassis.

Guys, the suspension kit is already out( a few days ago...).

Who's going for one?

I'm sure I'll be getting one. :)

[maxair45]

I might pick one up.

Looks really cool. That's great that Mike incorporated optional shock mount locations to allow running Jato/Revo shocks on the front and 1/8 buggy shocks on the rear. That appears to be what he has mounted up in the product photo.

I'm looking forward to someone testing these out.

They look cool but I will have to wait and hear if they are worth the 200...

Whats the difference with the new chassis I see in the pics..
