Default JM08 Stealth Chassis for TLR22

Yes, the rumors are true!* We have an all new chassis for the Losi 22.

Link http://www.rossmod.co.uk/product/371...ssis_for_TLR22

Specs :-

10mm shorter than original Losi chassis
Made from T6 Alloy
Black Anodized finish
25 deg front Kick-up
On testing we have found the following benefits :-

Increased rear traction
Improved turn in
Improved Agility
5 deg Added front Kick-up gives a safer and more composed steering.
If you are running the smaller than standard Losi LiPo stick pack then no additional parts or modifications are required, it's a straight fit!

If you would like to run standard saddle LiPo's, no problem! Simply dremel out the internal part of the Losi side pods and mount the LiPo sideways, one in front of the other. For this you will also need a bodyshell*with more generous proportions such as the FTW Vain or similar.

The New "JM08 Stealth Chassis" is available now from Rossmod

We have cut a small slot on the outer part on the plastic side pods, then extended the velcro straps to go round the battery.
I plan on taking a trip to B@Q to see if they do a longer Velcro strap.We might even sell them in the shop.
By the way the only extra part that you will need is 4 2mm plastic washer to fit under the servo mounts.
I'll take pictures tomorrow to show you.

I haven't seen the proline body as yet.
You keep the rear end as standard.

we've cut a small slot in the motor bracket and used a peice of stainless steel, which is secured by two battery posts provision has been made in the chassis for these if used.Picture 001.jpg

pics would be good, i run saddles so to see the pics would be great, sounds a good option altho a new body would be extra cost due to body then painting etc. so would bump cost up.

Extra rear end would be fantastic

Well, the car felt a lot better to drive, still not being able to nail the throttle out of tight corners, but the problem is far less and need a little more steering please!

Hi. I know you have had issues with your 22, as have I.
Out of interest which speedo and which motor (and turn) are you running ?

I had a speed passion 6.5 in mine and it never liked the beans out of corners, gone to a 7.5 with a few mods ( cream weight, 110g brass under short lipo, soft rear suspension - White spring etc) and it's a doodle to get around now. Not quite as fast as I'd like, but I'm still playing with gearing and speedo settings.

I am being conservative at the moment, Tekin RS Pro and Redline 10.5 set to run in sensored, so performs close to a 7.5 but without the grunt.
