Feedtheinferno Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Well for starters that shell just won't help at all. Why don't you just put a box on it for all the aero dynamic good that one is doing you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Si Coe Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Not sure why you'd need a whole carbon fibre chassis to seal up the underbody aerodynamics. You could replicate the effect with lexan sheet fitted to the original chassis which would be cheaper, lighter and easier...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R46 Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 i rather full carbon chassis myself than using lexan which could weigh more, hamper handling as ride height needs to increase to clear surface etc... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The chosen one Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 (edited) isn't the motor only rated for 2s? Edited April 5, 2013 by losi fan boy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arogon1235 Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 isn't the motor only rated for 2s? it is but people run them on 4s and they hold up fine and i think 2 people have ran 4s on a 9000kv motor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
