Chassis for Losi scte?

[SCMAD]

there are so many choices for chassis for the scte out there! what is the most durable? I have just purchased a new Losi scte, and in my research the chassis has proven to be quite weak...

I am leaning to a BCE chassis but need all the input i can to make a firm decision! HELP

Bump, TLR, KingHeadz, and BCE are all very nice. The ones that stand out for me are the KingHeadz (less drivetrain wear) and the Bump (rearward placed battery tray).

If you have the scratch consider this insanely badass upgrade: MIP Pro4mance Chassis and Tuning Package for Losi TEN-SCTE 4wd Short Course Truck

I fully like the look of that Mip set up, then again, my main concern is chassis durability, no bending etc... i wonder if the bump is better for that with tlr tuning kit? i really have no idea

You could just call it a day and replace the rear brace with an associated one that's longer for $15. Its not a week chassis just poor bracing. If your hard core then the chassis kits are what you might want because there lighter and have different tuning options.

The body post stay lined up with the body so it works. Before that it was bending and the body wasn't lining up.

i recently ordered the Bump + TLR tuning kit. It seems to be much stronger and about 20% lighter (295 g VS 241 g for Bump for me). I highly doubt this thing will bend. For good measure, I went ahead and ordered the Associated brace for it. Id hate to bend this beautiful thing on a super hard hit or landing

Do not get the rc8 brace it will not fit the bump chassis. The video is old. I emailed nitro house about it and they basically brushed me off. FU nitrohouse. Get the losi torque rod or delrin brace.

Im running the bump chassis with the stock rear brace and i haven't had any issues. I really wanna try the xtreme carbon fiber chassis though.

and i just checked the RC8 brace..... needless to say. I am highly disappointed that it does not fit. I will contact Nitrohouse and give them a chance to make it right before I go bashing them. smh

There should be a sticky on this topic!! So many posts on this subject.

Drill a new hole in the end of the AE brace and grind a little off the end and it will fit in the diff housing, takes 5 min.

+1 here. I already emailed nitrohouse two months ago. They dont care, I even told them to edit out the part with rc8 brace on the YouTube video.
