Skeleton Chassis

What does the skeleton chassis come with? I know it comes with the frame of course, but what else? Front bulkhead? RX cover?

I need a new front bulkhead but I'm NOT paying $20 or even $50 for one if I can get a skeleton chassis with all the parts already.

Also, I know the skeleton chassis doesn't come with any metal parts, it's just a matter of moving my existing electrics to the new chassis right?

I will have most of a stock Mini Z (minus electronics and motor) when I'm done... lol... I think I mentioned in another thread that one can almost buy an entire Mini-Z in hop-ups and the occasional Kyosho part through the mail!

The clear chassis does come with the battery connectors.
If your bulk head broke you can just buy a replacment one I think this site sells them. GPM and RCRM makes them too

I've got some cracks around screw holes on the chassis and the bulkhead so I figured I'd replace them both. Plus I want the super cool clear chassis.

Skeleton Chassis

wrcracer,

we discussed the 'is clear weaker than standard' issue in Mid-December.
If I remember correctly, no one could prove that they were or were not!

Jeff,

The skeleton chassis doesnt come with any wiring or battery connectors.
You'll have to move it all over.
As for the ESC/RX cover, I think (and hope) they can be ordered as a seperate item from Kyosho.

Edit
-----

I meant the white box that holds the servo and gears could possibly be ordered from Kyosho.
Yes, the skeleton chassis does come with an ESC/RX cover
-----

I know TopCAD makes a blue alloy bulkhead and GPM make them from alloy and graphite.
I would love an alloy bulkhead, but they cost £17 (US$20+) and I can't quite justify the cost. That would be better spent on real hop-ups!

Yeah, a new bulkhead is anywhere between $20-50 and while it's a beautiful piece of aluminum, it's just a piece of aluminum. (Oh, wait, aluminium )

I will get my skelly chassis sometime in the near future and let everyone know how it turns out regarding fit of the parts.
