New X-6 rear side

[dima_malyshko]

I find new photo with Paul on Redrc.


And I see new rear side. New shocks positions...
Anybody have news?

Well spotted!
That's still very much a prototype / test thing. Main objective is to get the wing forward.

I recon the next upgrade should be a central motor. In theory it could be done with a new top shaft and a few spacers, although a new gearbox would be better

He sure looks happy.

Yes, Paul (and several other Team drivers) has milled out the bulkhead and produced a new shock tower to fit, then moved the shocks and wing forward. We hope to produce a few more of these for various Team guys, and if the consensus is good, then make them to sell. Might be as early as 6 weeks.

What advantages would you get, in doing this?

Thought you were thinking of building your 6 on a 60 chassis for the longer wheel base?

[MRD]

I'd like to try it and I already run my x6 full wheel base so I could drop it back to short to get more weight backwards. Mmmm, I do need a new chassis soon

Looks like the rear tower could accommodate the same camber positions as the e-speed hangers...

Hope this comes out soon
