Word of warning: This is a very hard chassis to build. Everything is very tight and purpose build for performances without compromise. The front upper links, servo, battery box, and drag link are exceptionally tedious to achieve adequate clearance. I get the upper links close but they will take more tweaking if you want zero contact/interference.
This chassis has had so much testing and is built to use pretty specific parts. My goal with this chassis was a no compromise light weight portal specific chassis. It is pretty narrow for a sporty chassis at 47mm with the motor and driveshafts fitting between the chassis rails. The transmission is ultra-compact and uses Dlux Portal trans gears. The transmission case is molded to the skid for a lightweight and compact setup. With such tight clearance this chassis is specific to a 380 brushless motor. which is pushed as far forward as possible. The skid is boatsided and pinched for max clearance. Skid, transmission with gears and bearings, and chassis plates come in at 65g.
If using Dlux Capra axle: you will use the servo mount that comes with it. I provide an upper link mount and battery box with mount. Same battery box as used with standard Capra axle kit.
If using a center diff Capra axle: It uses a CNC'd front upper link mount with angled servo mount. This gets a lot more link separation in the front than traditional front link mounting points. The servo and battery are mounted at an up slopping angle so they stay flush with the lower links for a smooth breakover. The battery mount has a hinged lower cover to negate the need for velcro or straps. *These front upper link mounts are machined by John Hallman, a staple in the crawling scene since the 2000’s)
