Chassis Protector V2 Designs - Your Input

[Paul68]

2nd and 3rd designs look good. Logo and name look too big and bright.

[Annex RC]

Thanks so much for all your feedback. There has been some mixed feelings and we can't design 1 version to please everybody - such as life! However, the general feel seems to sway for a low key design that wouldn't clash with all the awesome body arts out there!

Taking this into account, we will look to market this - pending print outcome (people who have already purchased or sampled our current product will know the surface gives it a matt/semi gloss and textured finish so I will see how it comes out in production. So...provisional design to be available in shops as our 'standard version'

Once we grow a portfolio to cater for Associated's B6 and B64 plus other manufacturers, we will look to offer alternative designs or custom artwork. In the meantime...

In terms of access screw holes, we are looking to blank out the side pods as these aren't needed so often once built. The main reason is the size of the hole needed versus the amount of space for the film - looks bad and cheap with holes cut off at the edges or micron mm spacing which becomes flimsy.

Give me a shout out if there's something terribly wrong - otherwise I shall be contacting the guys for the freebie soon!

That looks awesome!
Definitely worthwhile. Really like the carbon effect, much like Spencer Rivkins B6 design.

[ste_lazzaro]

Agree, carbon look is always a winner, especially with the small logo in the middle. Well done!

Guys,

Thanks for the feedback.

I am now getting all the holes adjusted. Launch will include B6 and B64, including ones from other marques

Unfortunately, I am referencing the chassis without build so will need to visit a buggy club near to me to test for a 100% fitment (prob Silverstone) before going into mass production.

Will update as soon as I can.

[markwilliamson2001]

Thanks for the update.
Looking forward to this!
Any chance they will be ready by 14th Apr?

[Annex RC]

Should be in print by the weekend but need to get things tested to ensure fitment and all available screw holes are aligned correctly.

Will update over the weekend.

[markwilliamson2001]

Cheers!

[Annex RC]

Truly awesome!!! Well pleased with the finish and design.

Guys,

Thanks for your input in helping us perfect the BEST CHASSIS PROTECTOR!

The pre-production samples are in - really pleased with the finish...the carbon looks so real and even feels like carbon!

I'm getting a leading hobby shop to help test fit and we will be announcing release asap together with our stockist!

As promised, I will contact the first 10 when stock is in!

Cheers!!!

They look cool

[Annex RC]

just some minor adjustment on screw holes as I still have the B6 chassis to hand.

So much harder to fit with holes! Needs wetting both protector and chassis to help re-lift, etc. Needs to be left overnight to fully bond, but worth it!

[markwilliamson2001]

Very nice

[ste_lazzaro]

Looks great!

[markwilliamson2001]

Any updates on these? Very keen!

Hi Guys,

It's taking a bit longer than anticipated (passion on new business vs main job to pay bills!)

The print for the B6 have been done, but we are waiting for our supplier to deliver the laminate for it. I've been promised delivery Tues 2nd, so we should have it all ready by Thu. packaged and ready for shipment.

I will PM the 10 guys on this thread to get your details for the B6 protector. If all goes to plan, you should receive it by the end of next week.

RE: B64/B64D. I am getting 5x printed for final sign-off. 1 has already been issued - happy for 4 volunteers here to help give me user sign-off (the finish is at production spec. and should be 100%). First of the replies gets one in addition to the B6.

RE: Fitting, check out our website on annex-rc.com Media Stuff page. Without wetting, you have to be some demi-God to get it applied! Apologies for the video sound, production, and my voice - sound bit like a numpty as reading from a script! But still useful content nevertheless!

[Annex RC]

Just to clarify, we're offering this totally free, not postage to pay now. Although it's more cost for me, super happy for the interest and support given here.

Hope you all find it meets expectations....

Miscount?

See these are in eBay look good on this chassis in the pics how come it costs so much to post?

[Annex RC]

Alex97,

Yes miscount! I'll PM you later as I'm mobile ATM.

To answer other questions - the item is also available from MB Models...they are also cheaper than rrp.

RE postage cost, we are using Royalmail and due to size, it has to be a small parcel. No markup, just pure cost, until we setup an acc with a delivery company.

Thanks.

[markwilliamson2001]

Got mine today cheers!!
