    Hey guys🙂
    Update on the missing parts situation if you haven't seen the community posts regarding this.
    HPI have sent out the parts to all local suppliers that have sold the factory error S version Vorza👌
    Contact your local HPI supplier if you did not receive these parts on your Vorza S.
    Thank you HPI👍

      Hey bud nice truggy man. Is there any braces you can buy ? I dont have carbon fiber. I cant find any.

    • @rccrazy
      @rccrazy  Рік тому

      No I don't think a factory or aftermarket centre brace has be made for this car.
      I have designed a alloy and carbon brace but have to wait for the fabricator to get his cnc fixed.
      As I have said to others, I will let yous know in a community post when they are available👍

    Nice job with the springs. I have no clue why HPI would put those saggy ones on. Also nice with the center brace. Maybe the 4mm chassis can handle the flex. How's the durability so far.

    • @rccrazy
      @rccrazy  2 роки тому

      Yes the stock springs didn't make sense🤔
      The braces are more to stop the drivetrain from getting damaged if the chassis was to over flex but probably not need.

      I assume you mean to write dimensions and the top two braces as the bottom one is polycarbonate.
      But I didn't make them with any measurements because of the funny shapes I wanted, I just used a piece of cardboard thin enough to poke holes for the 8 mounting points and then drew 2 shapes that looked strong that fit in place.
      Sorry mate I'm not great with numbers so I just guesstimate most of the time.
