Mad monkey bodyshell and wing
hi guys,
i know this has probably been asked countless times before, but does anyone know where i can buy a clear or none-ansmann brand bodyshell and wing that would fit the mad monkey in the uk? like a proline shell etc? cheers! :) |
i also want a clear shell for the monkey the b4 shell dont fit either as its not wide enough
|
You could try the Phat Bodies Zen -
http://cache1.bigcartel.com/product_...31/Zen_050.jpg Its designed to fit the X-Factory X6 so there's a good chance it will fit the Mad Monkey. Available here - http://phatbodies.co.uk/ :thumbsup: |
Simon.......if that shell is narrow at the front then it won't fit the Mad Monkey as it's quiet a bit wider than the b4/x6 front end ;)
|
well i got annoyed at looking all over with no avail so iv bit the bullet and ordered 3 sheets of 0.75mm lexan (enough for 3 shells all going well) and i shall set about making my vacuum forming machine out of scrap bits.
i will let you all know how it goes success or not but if they go well i may be able to do the odd one or two. i will be changing the design tho adding a air vent that can be cut out allowing air flow directly onto the motor for added cooling so no heat sink needed |
Hi all, I am waiting to order a body to make a mould from for the Mad Monkey as it seems a lot of people are after one as soon as it happens I will be posting it up, cheers Eric

Simon, when I get 5 minutes ill try and measure the width front and mid, see how it measures up to ya shell :)...... I personally would like a close fitting shell to keep as much cr@p out as poss ;)

I've not seen a Mad Monkey up close, but it does look a lot like the X6 from the middle backwards, which is what the Phat Bodies Zen was designed for so should a good fit around there .....
|
The Zen fits the RB5 MCS does it not? Which is a kyosho front end which is pretty much the same width as the x-pro, madmonkey, rat, x2c etc so I would have thought it would fit.
|
true but mad monkey is 10mm longer than xpro and wider in middle and back than xpro

shell
Hello boys and girls,
Just put my sons zen shell on my mad monkey and it fits. With the M/M shell its a tight fit over the spur gear but on the zen shell there is plenty of room. I'll try an add some pics. |

No need to hack the front of the shell,just follow the cut lines fits perfect.
Looks miles better than the m/m shell, going to order one from simon at phat bodies asap. |
