hi all
i desided to make my own cr2 for a bit of a chalinge. i had a xxx-cr and an old spair chassie.
i had to dremal the back of the chassie out and put nuts and bolts through the back to hold the rear plate on.
for the rear holes in the plate i got anouther rear plate and layed it ontop the other way round and lined up the 4 outside holes.
i still need to put a brace to stop the rear flexing but its not bad for a 13 year olds work(with no help so far)

Good job so far! Just make sure you have a spare t piece predrilled... I did something similar and the extra holes make the t piece quite weak... As for the bracing try putting a post eother side of the battery tray about half way down the chassis, then use two turnbuckles up to the two hole on the gear box.. Hope that helps:thumbsup:

Looks good, but I'd countersink the bolts which are proud at the rear of the chassis.
