Default modification update

just a quicky to fill you in on the mods.

due to the chassis still flexing a fair bit, i have made a modification using 2.5mm fibreglass. i have cut a piece of fibre glass using a lipo as a out-line marker, this was made to be used as a chassis spine.

i fitted it by drilling a hole at the rear so the support brace holds it in place, before i placed it into position, i used industrial fibre-glass glue on the chassis. (spreading it well for a good bond)

i placed the chassis spine piece on to the fibre-glue then bolted it all back into place. i am amazed by how much more rigid the chassis now feels.
you will never totally stop flex, you can only minimize it!!!
