If there is enough interest in the aluminum parts I'll sell them, they take a little while to make.
LOL
I put that car behind there like that on purpose it is just a test cut chassis of a chassis I plan on making/selling but I dont want to reveal the rear end just yet.(I'd hate for someone to copy it before I'm ready to do anything with it).LOL
Notice the 6 cells, and there is some cool stuff in the back that makes it simple and still Xmod body compatible.It does not use the Xmod electronics .....yet.
Just a spy, a XXL and sub micro servo.
I cut a small piece of that new chassis tonight and tomorrow I'll cut the top plate and front diff cover.

it looks great! got an ETA for the new chassis? from what i can see, you have little room to put in the xmod PCB with the batteries in the L formation but it's your design and i'm sure you've got a solution for that. keep us updated man, dying to see what you've come up with for the rear chassis section

TypeZer0, I dont plan on using the Xmod electronics at this time but I feel I could get them in there if I wanted too.
I'm going to be using a Novak spy, novak XXl and a submicro servo .(if it has the torque)
I started out planning on using Xmod electronics but since they suck compared to hobby grade stuff I ditched them in favor of the novak stuff.Even so there is interest from people who still want the chassis so it will all work out one way or another.At least I can stuff six AAA's in there and it wont be top heavy.
There is nothing really spectacular going on in the rear but it is a simple but effective design.
Oh with that chassis I'm building I have had all electronics, batteries in the car and my RSX body locked unto it.

i bet the rear design would incorporate a suspension setup similar if not the same as the front . i thought about that but i'm not good at fabricating stuff myself, especially chassis components.

No NO it is simpler than that.
It is just a simple, easy to work on setup back there.
I'd love to do a rear suspension upgrade since it could use it but I have other plans before doing that, I would do a front suspension mod before the back.
Aluminum center shaft bearing supports
I have a cool wheel mod planned
An aluminum motor mount heatsink oh but it would be adjustable

Nosser, I'm glad I can count on you and a few others who want to use this chassis without the stock Xmod electronics.
Right now as I type this (8:10p.m.) the top chassis piece is being cut out of the same type of aluminum as the chassis brace pieces.
I wont be able to cut the bottom tonight since I really dont wont to be out there untill 2:00a.m.
I want to be able to posts pictures of it but it will be friday before I can post pictures.
