MF01-X lunchbox

[Johan]

I put some drift tires on my MF01-X

How did you mount that body and how much did you have to take off the arches?

Looking at the same fit and yours looks fantastic

What's on fire at the end?

[Snappy1]

The fire is normal for Roadkill lol

I believe a burned esc with the last water puddle.

This is lovely...is there a way to make the MF01 narrower? The wheels stick out a bit too much, otherwise I'd want this as a project

@Nobbi, I had an old lexan lunchbox body that i used to figure out how much to take away. It is a fair ammount, you can see the old body mounting hole at the front wheel arch. The body can also used with the slightly larger offroad wheels that came with the kit, so for onroad only there could be somewhat less material removed. I actually took some of the front chrome bumper as well...The body is mounted with the front bodymounts pointing forward through the grill, and the rear body mounts are as stock on the MF01-X, made some holes for that in the body.

@ Wolfdogstinkus, Snappy and kontemax, actually nothing is on fire, that shot was done at the beginning. The smoke is from a little smoke generator, used in RC ships...

@ Zomboided I dont think there is a possibility to make the chassis narrower, maybe wheel with a smaller ofset will do, although the wheels I use do not have that much offset

M05 arms are not exactly long, I doubt anything shorter would work.

Thanks, I will keep working on mine.

Don't want to take this too far off topic, but how does the Pumpkin body compare? The low ride flavour has lovely flush wheels so I'm guessing it's wider?

@ zomboided, don't know, they both fit on a lunchbox chassis..

That's so sweet, I can't even deduct points for being a Dodge

That is quite a cool trick! *Saves for future use in bashers*
