Default tmaxx chassis

I've got a 3.3 Tmaxx and my chassis is slightly torqued from all the power and i'm sure some of the bashing that i've done. I'm trying to decide which chassis to replace mine with. I'm looking at the titanium chassis or just the basic 4mm aluminum blue chassis from Traxxas. I do a lot of hardcore bashing with my truck and with a whole new neighborhood worth of land to investigate and conquer I need something strong to take the beatings that this truck is going to get. Any opinions would be greatly appreciated. If anyone has a cheap chassis to sell I have paypal and would gladly work a deal out with anyone with a good reputation! Thanks in advance for any info!

Default RE: tmaxx chassis

After completely breaking my stock 2.5 chassis into 2 pieces, I invested in an RDLogics web chassis. Thickness is around 4mm, and it looks great. I wouldnt recommend it though, cause it flexes like crazy. I havent had the chance to run it much since my truck has been down and out for a while, but I guess I would imagine that it wouldnt be durable enough for any extreme bashing. If you have the $$$, invest in a nice titanium unit/CF/ thick alum one. Thats my 0.2 for the RD chassis.

Thanks nitrohead for that heads up on the RD Logics becuase the looks/weight loss were very tempting to buy but I was very worried about it's overall strength/ durability. I'm really leaning towards the titanium just because of the strength/ weight. Carbon Fiber is not going to take a lot of beating or head on landings just do to it's nature so i'm staying away from that.
