Default Superstox Grumble

Superstox.
It looks great but when you try to install the electrics there are problems.
There is little choice but to have the esc sticking out beyond the chassis.

If i go racing without sorting this problem out I just know someone is going to head directly at an apex flat out, t-bone me and smash the esc to smithereens. Sod's Law guarantees it.

I had an idea of putting the ball joints on the top side of the hub arms and mounting the low profile servo upright and between the front wheels. This will give loads of space for everything!
Unfortunately there is a big square hole where the mounting posts would go.

So, I have a choice of making a bumper bar to protect the overhanging esc or cut a whole new chassis without a hole in it.

I know there are some Schumacher guys on here...
I would be prepared to buy another chassis without a hole in. I know you are not going to disrupt your manufacturing to humour a single customer. That would be mad. If however you felt so inclined during a spare moment, I would really dig it big time if you could send me a DFX of the chassis so I can machine a new one.

Cheers
Apricot
