Hot Bodies D216 1/10 2WD Buggy!
#1066
Looking into getting back into 2wd buggy. Wish I had a timeline as to IF and WHEN Hot Bodies was coming out with new vehicles. Love my 413 and would like to try this this 216 but would hate to get the old one if a new one is coming soon. Anyone running on carpet? If so how do you like it? And how does it do against the B6 and. TLR's.
I had a DEX210 and a B6 and getting the itch again. I hate working on TLR and don't want to rebuy a B6.
Thanks in advance.

For the price you can currently get this car, I don't think you'll be out much to buy one and run it until a new car is available. The car Ronnafelk ran at Worlds was prototype rear end with a B6 front end. The car is still in development so I guestimate that it'll be more than a few months before a new car is released. That being said, I don't run carpet and I'm sure there are better cars out there for it.

Anyone test the lengthwise battery install bracket? I'm trying to determine what it would do for me.

The car has tons of grip. So putting it in line helps move the weight forward some and keeps a good balance. U can corner a little faster that way.
I also added 9 grams under the servo to help.
Mostly ran on clay

On indoor tracks. Carpet or clay I always ran the battery in line.

Anyone have a good base setup for a small, indoor clay track?

Tape the battery down in line, cut tabs off battery strap and leave it mounted for support. That's what i did. Looks kinda funny but functional all the same.

That would work, but for those who are conscious about safety, easy in and out would be important. Do you have any pics of your set-up? How you liking it?

This setup also allows you to use the Exotek brace which helps stiffen up the chassis even more.
Hope this helps. This was posted in a photo from another user earlier this year, I just kinda built off it with same concept.
Have fun.
