Josh the CAD drawings on RedRC look great! Your car designs have always been cutting edge. I remember seeing pics of your front motor Kyosho prototype...and didn't you make one with carbon fiber bulkheads?
Not sure its possible...or how to exactly execute it...but could you make an "open source" chassis? Meaning you could use diffs and suspension parts from several different chassis. So if you had a ton a spares from a 416 and you wanted to upgrade you could buy an Evolution. Or if you have a Cyclone you could do the same and use the same Evolution chassis? You get the idea. The biggest part about switching chassis is that you have to buy all new spares and get a decent stock of everything you need. This way you just buy an Evolution and you're good to go.
Idk...just thinking aloud.
I wish I didn't sell my Photon
