The M2C wide chassis will be available in both ET (long) and MT (short) versions. This is truly a game changer for Tekno bashers! Huge thanks to Mitchell at M2C for making this happen.
Benefits include:
Comparison
452g
M2C Mega Chassis Brace
Mutiple location ESC Plate, fits up to a Hobbywing Max6
It has 4 holes for mounting into Hobbywing ESC's
The tray has been moved forward 5mm which allows a 40x75mm truggy motor to be used with a Hobbywing Max6
The servo has to swapped 180* for the proper alignment, so a hole must be drilled for the wire exit
Killer bracing setup
8awg wire extensions
So much space!

Ideally the servo horn needs to be a longer style versus shorter, because it puts the linkage rod in a better position.
For truggy owners, you must use a NT48.3 body since they're wider. I'm using the Leadfinger Strife.
I wanted to use the Proline thumbwashers to secure the body. So I shaved off the nipples on the body mounts.
I drilled up to this point.
The hole needs to be perfectly centered.
I used longer set screws. (M4x16mm)
Benefits include:
- Waaaaaay less chassis flex
- Waaaaaay more room for mounting different electronics
- No more worrying about the battery hitting the center diff outdrive with certain types of packs
- Multiple location ESC plate
- Can fit the Mega Chassis Brace
