Default Chassis!

I'm making an attempt to gear up to become a full fledge chassis builder. I've already got a handful of designs fleshed out and one already sent to a member for testing, and another nearing test status.

Since an Axial is what I drive, that is what I'm building for. Hopefully things will progress enough for me to start picking up some other platforms and build for them too.

What I would like to know is what would you guys like to see in a chassis? What options do you look for? If you could pay someone a reasonable price to make a chassis you scribbled down on a napkin with a Crayon, would you?

The pullstart on my cowbell is broken. How about some xylophone instead?

"The looser the waistband, the deeper the quicksand, or so I have read."

Hey duuude, i drive an axial,well whats left of an ax10. I have some chassis ideas but, something i think you could make money off of would be a stock mounting triangulated skid plate... could stretch it out a little to shorten the lower links abit. just an idea i've had for awhile. If you ever need a test monkey drop me a line.

I love it, how about a smaller girl bent over to sit on top of that chassis (as a cab)for a bodyless rig! I will let your mind wonder from there

They weren't meant for serious competition. Just something to keep everyone entertained (mainly me).
