Crash !
 
hi i have had my hyper 7 for a year and have never broken anything. yesterday i hit a curb at full power (acidently) and i broke the bumper and the shock pole snaped but where the spur gear is a sight bend on the servo tray. did the car bend in half briefly if it did do you think any more damage could of been done? thanks

is the chassi meant to be flat or slightly bent at the front

The Chassis should be slightly up turned at the front not flat.

ohh, ur gonna need a new chassis soon. once aluminum bends, it's all down hilll from there. it loses strength.

Did the same with my inferno. Once its been bent, you can never get in back exact. The geometry will be all wrong. Worth investing in a new chassis. Keep the old one just in case you want to do some insane jumps. :D:D:D
