Default Reinforced X2C

After having some increased flex in the chassis, plastic aging alittle and rear section screw holes not great anymore I decided to try and brace the rear end alittle. I shamelessly tried to base it on the C4.1 idea and below is design no.1







Its a spare adjustable turnbuckle with a ballcup one end and a suspension lower mount on the other. The bottom of the battery strap has some foam padding to stop the bolt head coming into contact with the battery packs. The arm is offset slightly so the bolt head is central between the two saddles.

So far certainly seems to be happier over jumps and more consistent feedback. Will see how it holds up racing over the next few weeks.

I would ideally like to start removing material from the new battery strap as its too large at the moment but want to retain as much strength as possible.
