it dosnt bend there, it bends in the area between the centre place and trans, aka where the motor is situated, there just isnt enough support there, i can bend the chassis with my hands with everything installed, its very weak, currectly im searching for soemwhere to get some 6061T6 alloy or preferably 7075T6 alloy to make a new 4mm chassis. I mean the chassis should not bend just by hitting a empty recycling bin, weights about 1kg and was movable lol. It bends the chassis when it lands from wheelies etc as well, kinda dissapointing, i love the thing, but the chassis is really getting to me lol, i have a 30 and 40 tooth custom clutch bell for it as well, it takes alot of bottom away, but the top end is just crazy fast lol
