production prototype shown, actual production may vary Here is your chance to own the most advanced TC3 chassis currently in production. The Pre-Production prototype for this chassis dominated the 2004 ROAR region 3 Championships in the hands of Mike Collins taking both Stock and Modified Classes. The Penguinr/c P5500tc3 is very similar to the Pre-Production car differing only in the motor mount design that is included with the car. The Penguin r/c aluminum motor mount is of an open end design which allows for a large range of gear ratio selection along with the ability to remove the motor without having to remove the pinion. This design motor mount allows the motor to sit as low in the chassis as posible through it's entire gearing range for the lowest CG availible. click on picture for larger view Some of the P5500's advanced features include Full Graphite M3.0 Shock Towers which include three extra roll center adjustments, three extra shock mounting locations on the front, and one extra shock mounting on the rear (Front and Rear interchangable, shown below), Left or Right Servo Mounting Locations, Adjustable Flex M2.5 Chassis (via side rail posts), Right Side Battery slots for offset battery location, center front body post adaptor, M2.0 Graphite Corner Braces along with the innovative motor mount. The P5500 has several different battery attachment methods which include use the Stock Battery Brace, Velcro Straps screwed to the chassis (not included), or strapping tape. The P5500 at the lower chassis is no wider than the standard TC3 molded chassis allowing for the same ground clearance characteristics of the original and is barely wider overall at the side braces. click on picture for larger view Included in this kit is the following - M2.5 Quasi Grade Graphite Chassis, M2.5 Quasi Grade Graphite SideBraces(x2), M2.5 Quasi Grade Graphite Shock Tower Mounting Kit(x2), M2.0 Quasi Grade Graphite Corner Braces, M3.0 Quasi Grade Graphite Front and Rear Shock Towers, M2.5 Center Body Post Adaptor, Aluminum Standoffs, Screws, and Directions required for conversion. |
