And whats old is new again. Did you get to tweak it anymore?
I Did !

The TRF 419 damper stay's fit the TB Evo 5 and make a nice upgrade i.c.w. the Evo 6 short dampers ! (or TB 04 Pro dampers)

Hey Clint,

So is your AL chassis a commercially available product or is it a one off special? How do you find it feels on the high bite stuff?

Its just a chassis I did up for myself, I contacted a local cnc shop to do one up for me but they said 220$ plus materials..

Contact Cristian at Reflex racing, he makes custom chassis.

I have a few other possibilities in the works.. stay tuned!!
So if I can get a narrow lipo chassis made up from either 7075 or 6061 alloy, how many of you guys would be interested? just so I can tell the machine shop how many I want made up..

It's awfully tempting Clint. I parked my Evo V a couple years ago because I'm not that great of a driver and got tired of chasing parts, but an al parking lot basher would be really cool.

I have created some parts for my Evo V in CAD, but I didn't managed it to build one until now.

My intention is to use an aluminium chassis like Serpent does it with their ERYX 3.0.
Further I want to use an AME direct mount servo, in this case I changed sides for battery and electronics.

A little teaser for Clint and I project...





Don't talk to loud...Oleg may hear us
Final project by the way won't be a copy but I need a nice stating point!
Aluminum and brass center brace for flex option and weight with USGT and VTA in mind.

Left side motor mount without top deck connection and a new floating servo mount also in the work...
But I really need to put my concept as it is on the track before more development.

See you and happy to stir the EVO V thread!

I think this design can be really interesting with 3mm carbon also...
