Really, we need to get Factory CRC on here to chat up the new chassis. Coming fresh off the molded mindset, I really like the direction that was taken. Of course, it will need to be crash tested to see if there is going to be any issues or revisions. It looked like a very smart design.

On a parallel conversation, since the molded technology uses a shaped chassis, there is far less need for fasteners, parts do not shift, tweak or bend and weigh far less then bolt together counter parts. My MS3L weighed in about 695g loaded, requiring 35g to bring it to Roar weight. My out of the box GenXL needs to shave 25g with the same electronics.

Now we just need to get ride of ride height shims and adjusters! I am not implying that I have that on the drawing board.... no way... wouldn't suggest that. We couldn't possibly adjust pan cars ride height with a simple wrench......
