TRF502Xs
 
For those of you that don't have access to the "Bookface" TRF Off Road Buggy page:p

Here is the completed project. Paul Sims a BEZERK R/C did this work and is the one who sells the conversion chassis kit.:)

Comes with 4mm front and rear towers, 2.5mm upper decks, 3mm lower deck with no openings ( completely flat ) 3.5 mm longer and 10mm narrower as well ( same width as the TRF503 ) milled pockets, adjustable shorty battery tray to adjust the weight for optimum balance, floating servo mount brought over from the TRF503 and can be flipped to either side depending on what chassis balance configuration you want to use ESC behind the motor or esc in front of the Shorty battery. Chassis balance is a 46% Front & 54% Rear Bias ( similar to the 503 bias which is 47% Front & 53% Rear ) Also this chassis kit makes the TRF502x very light...as well for those of you that run spec classes.. 13.5 ect ect..

awesome work SD, thanks to you I have dusted off my 502x and am getting back into racing. I am so glad I kept it waiting for someone like you to come along and improve it.

Any idea when the Sir Dave kit will be for sale?

Thanks.... I would hit up Paul Sims a BEZERK RC on facebook and he can get you all set up with the chassis.... I am going to have a few extra sets of diff cases modified up so that they will work in the 502x gearboxes ... So you can PM me if you would like a set in a week or two:)
And you are welcome as well.... I liked my TRF502x.... But it needed somebody to give it another chance...;) and that's where the TRF502xs design came in:thumbsup:
