Welcome back me, new chassis design?
What would be the number one vehicle you guy's want to see a chassis built for? What do you want it built out of? And what kind of options would you like to see?

Just get a Exotek for the RC18T. There is no other chassis for the Vendetta other than the stock one but graphite. More battery room, and a slipper would be great.

The Vendetta's are winning it.
I should have made a poll, but I've been away from the hobby for awhile now, and I'm no longer current on the mini scene. Besides, unless thing's have drastically changed here, polls usually go south really quick. I'm surprised the 'detta has stayed so popular, I'm going to have to look into it.

Jrgunn5150- If you decide on the vendetta try and make a spot where you can put the esc switch somewhere more convient when the body is on. So you dont have to turn it on then put the body on.

What kind of battery room do you 'detta guy's need? I mean, 7-8 cell's? Saddle lipo's? I'm going to buy one here in a few weeks I guess and see what's what.
I might be able to do a slipper, I've never held one in my hand, but I am a machinist, honestly, the easiest way to do it in a cost effective manner would be to adapt existing part's though.

If you did a saddle maybe some how you could find a way to make sub c sized batteries fit. Like the 10th scale buggies run.
And room for 7-8 cells would be nice as well. Either one would be good

As long as the chassis as durable as the stock chassis I'll be interested. Are you going to make some Alloy gear boxes since the stock chassis has the bottom half molded into the chassis.

P.S. if you could make it so the one of the exotec slippers would work and the motor mount/gear protector thing.
