Interesting Chassis Protector

Post by RC10th »

These look pretty good, wish I would have bought these instead... The cut out screw holes on RC10's are handy. A nose plate section would have been welcomed however.

That's pretty cool. I was thinking about cutting a piece of clear-bra material to use as a chassis protector, but I love the look of these. Thanks for posting.

Love the design but yeah a full chassis length would be better...

The nose gets beat more than the rear of the chassis. It looks cool but it should be full length

no chassis protector will make up for the fact that the angle sticks out... that's a fact of 2wd RC racing without a composite nose ;)

I noticed these on the 'bay' the other day and was wondering the same thing - why is there no protection for the nose plate. Seems like a big oversight to me.
