That is crazy????
Is there anywhere else to get it???

Thx guys, i will prolly just get the AE chassis, if the EXOTEK is

Is it that much better, 90$ better??

THX guys

It's expensive but it's not a rip-off. I doubt the make more than $20 profit on each given the quality of the metal and the time it takes to mill it.

And I disagree as it has become a "blanket statement". But it has helped people. So go for it.

I was running a 14t pinion in mine. Motor temps were acceptable after a 8 min run, but esc temps were around 180°f. I found that running a 13t and adding some esc timing, I was just as fast as the14t and my esc temps dropped 20°. Food for thought.

Beats the hell out of a trip to 'banned camp' because you cite some anynomous online dolt with a history of spewing bad tech, but I digress.

(Not you, Jeff - I suspect the chassis isn't the improvement we are looking for outdoor, but I never tried it either).
