Ya the way they rip out there is really nothing you can add on to support it. Also I find epoxy (well JB weld at least) don't hold very well to this chassis. I've tried it on my current to cover the battery compartment gaps after I slightly damaged my lipo(which is proving to be a PITA to keep in) on my last chassis.
Another way you defintely could reinforce the chassis is if you got your hands on some MEK solvent... then you could make plastic ribs out of a number of differnet types of plastic: ABS, styrene, polycarbonate to name a few... you would then solvent bond the ribs to the chassis, which is made of ABS... solvent bonding is much more effective then gluing, as the end result is quite literally a single piece of plastic, not multiple pieces glued together.
With this technique you could go bananas reinforcing the chassis.
Interesting.
Where would one get MEKfrom?
