The new rear bulkhead looks awesome! Glad the clearance is there for the battery.
Nice work gentleman!

Still waiting on some stuff but it's getting close. I can't wait to see it finished up too!

Sorry i haven't posted any updates recently, ive been super busy at work and home and haven't really had much time to work on it. The parts are all very nearly ready to send to shapeways to have the (hopefully) final versions printed, and as Jeff said I'm working on an input/output shaft solution. Maybe it will be all wrapped up by early July and avalable to you guys.

Playing around a bit... Yes or no? I'm kinda "meh" about it. It's not like we need the brace as a stock one fits.

I think it's neat that you had some fun and creativity with it but aside from that I'd say nay.

Im ready, towers and braces are a push of the button away.
Robinson racing stepped up and is going to make us idlers based on their rc10gt idlers with a longer shaft, and they are also making the pullies. Should be available soon direct thru Robinson racing. They may make aluminum stealth diff gears too, not specifically for us but compatible for sure
I will let Brian quote his timeline but we are really close guys. Not much longer.

gmachv,
Is the model name RC10x4? Could you integrate this into the trans brace? Another cool name might be " TEN4!"
I really like what you've done with the brace - unique and cool.
