Whats the gearbox on there? It doesn't look connected to the rear end
Looks like you've got room on that chassis to lie the 2 lipos down flat side by side, could be worth it for a slightly lower cofg at the front? If you're going for 4wd on that, how are you going to tension the belt over such a long chassis? Not criticising, just curious! |

Hi
The upper pictures were halway through the build. the gearbox is connected to the rear with a single speed for now. I have the option for up to 14s, there is plenty of room. I am trying it in the 6 cell class first. I have a side belt that fits and can run it in 2WD or 4WD. The belt is pretty tight so no need for tensioners. Cheers |

cool, 14s must be mental, I was thinking 6s was scary!

But wouldn't the car flex enough to lose tension on the belt? Like an old Yokomo 870c before they had a upper deck. |

It has angle aluminium along the side of the chassis to stiffen it so no

Ok the shell is a bit ropey and it weighs a ton but it will do...
