Just spotted this - I note they're offering stick or saddle variants.

For the UK (i.e. astroturf, high grip tracks), which is better? Saddle for less weight transfer, reducing the chance of grip roll?

Its been 2 months :)

Well the prototype has major flex on the chassis and the positioning of certain gearbox parts were not fitted properly but have to admit it goes rather well. Cant wait to see the production model.

Dood, there is no prototype yet. Where/what r u looking at?

That car you have seen me running is made by tom on here it's something I am exploring at the moment the ansmann x2c is another car that is in development and will have a molded plastic chasiss

Carl.
you know you now have to put some pics up for them all to see ;)
Actually i thought it went around Taplow quite well.
Always nice to see something different :thumbsup:

I will sure do I need to get a shell sprayed really though :wub

as far as i now is that the stick version wil be a rtr version. and the kit
wil be sadlepack.

:drool::drool::drool::drool::drool::drool::drool:: drool::drool:

tcmodels can you post it up on your site as soon as you have the saddle chassis so I can order it and some other parts I need :)??

Have emailed my main man at Ansmann and he has informed me that he will visiting Ansmann germany next week :D
so in 10 days or so i should have some more information regarding the Mid-Rat :thumbsup::thumbsup:

I just noticed the gearbox has the extra gear so the conversion kit will have quite a few parts in it. Extra idler, chassis, body, motor plate, transmission halves and the t piece etc. And that battery brace looks expensively unneeded in carbon :P but they don't have tyres like the truck conversions need to have so I guess the conversion kit price could be not tooooo much more than the others

Yeah does look like it has a seperate back end and isn't a one piece chassis like the x-6.

Looks like there is only one toe in block to which is off the x-pro4 at the rear. And looks like the hangers for the rear turnbuckles can be replaced instead of replacing the whole rear shock tower/bulkhead.

I look forward to getting a conversion kit for myself :thumbsup:

The conversion kit is online now over at tcmodels.net, for $55.

hmmmmmmm
$55 ~ £37 plus an X-pro at £80 means a decent mid motor 2wd for less than £120. :D:D:D:D:D:D

:D:D:D:D
Does look good

should have some news end of the week..:D

I'll be ordering it in a couple of hours :) fixes all the broken bits on my non running madrat and gets me a nice new body all in one $55 bargain :)

Don't forget that you'll need some saddle packs :).
