My consern is that this summer I will be running outdoor asphalt and conserned the chassis edges may take a beating. I found there are chassis protector films (mostly for off road) that may help?

I suspect some of you have encountered this running outdoor and just looking for your suggestion.
All TCs have this issue on tarmac, even the very narrow ones.

I just slap some battery tape along the underside at the start of the day in the places where I know it rubs (usually under the motor and at the rear edge).
