I am a problem solver and the one thing I kept seeing was everyone attempting to work around an extreme lack of adjustment on the AX10 chassis and also deliver a simplistic design that would comply with the RC Crawler competition regulations regarding body size. Frankly this designs raised a huge amount of eyebrows and had a lot of competitors crying fowl that it offered such a competitive advantage to not require a body. Twin Vertical Plates - TVPs were not new, but all required bodies, my design was the first to offer a bodiless TVP... of course the Chinese companies knocked this offer within weeks of me working with Fast Lane Machine and offering if for sale. This SPV 4 version is designed to cover some of the gaps we saw with the original design including crossed links, and a lot more shock clearance plus more anti-squat, and anti-dive adjustment. This original design had a lot of input from my contacts and top minds in the crawling industry including FLM, Holmes Hobbies, and Bender from Axial and a lot of top competitors ran the chassis. The Aluminum FLM chassis picture shown. I am now open sourcing this for several reasons: - The freaking Chinese knockoff company of my design is still selling it for $60 which frankly ticks me off. - The epically affordable RedCat Racing Everest 10 is almost exactly the same and shares parts with the now out of production Axial AX10 chassis. It also has all the same tuning complaints we had in 2007. - I want new RC Crawler folks to have fun and enjoy RC and frankly the Redcat Everest 10 at $180 shipped complete with battery and charger is the so cheap you cannot part together all the base components cheaper. - Fun - Love 3D printing and this was literally designed originally for flat milling and as such a no-support required flat print. - Could not be a simpler print - I want people to have fun and add stuff to this. I have already started working on some accessories and I have plenty of flexibility for attach stuff. This is an almost infinitely adjustable design, so if you want more anti-squat or anti-dive, or move shock around it will allow that to happen. As shown, this runs extremely well in the link connection points. Full Fusion 360 files will be posted to GrabCad soon!
