What's that on the bottom of the chassis? Bubble wrap?

Yea, sorry, but you would've been better keeping the entire surface flat without holes, and just mounting with 3M double-sided industrial tape.

No bubbles on the chassis, it's only optical deception in fact looks very nice

Not sure exactly what the plan is ..... but when that rips away from the front (and rear) bulk head screws your going to create alot of problems unless you catch it right away...

Sorry to say, but that's wavey and isn't going to do much good. What are you afraid of ? Scratching the chassis is just part of running Offroad.

Just curious, what ESC are you using?

That is in a pretty happy range for the handling of this truck for most tracks. I have found between about 6.2-6.4 is pretty good everywhere, heavier will work on big tracks a little better and lighter in clay or astro tracks.

I run the hobbywing v3 esc now, started w/ a mmp, tried the mmm, went to the rx8 and finally settled with the hw v3 for my scte. Great ESC price just dropped too.
