X6 Sq. Shorty lipo front to rear?
 

Would this fit without cutting away the front cross-chassis rib behind the servo? (I realise I will have to do lots of other cutting!). SuperDan? Ta.

If you mean the rib directly behind the servo, then yes

Thanks, am planning on using Vampire shorty, hopefully they are all similar...

That is what most of our team run when they use shorty, Dan Greenwood has run this LIPO (down the middle as you suggest) most of this season....

Shorty Lipo will fit :thumbsup:

Yes.

You have to cut the bracing in the middle of the chassis that separates where the cells across the back go from the space in the middle I.e. between the old 4 cells and 2 cell space. The vampire lipo is then about 5mm shorter than the space left so you can space it slightly forward or back as required.

The rib behind the servo I've kept and use that as the stop for the cells as per the picture in the other thread in the link above.

Thanks guys. Project rear roll bar next....

May just be able to help you out a little with that one too shortly, stay tuned ;)

Sounds interesting, I am hoping you are going to say you are getting some roll bars in that work with the Losi XXX-4 mounting kit..... Wasn't looking forward to prospect of making my own from piano wire... Can I ask for this for Christmas or will it be post-Crimbo?!
