FURITEK BETTLE CARBON FIBER COMP CHASSIS FOR FURITEK FX118 RED VERSION

This is an excellent comp chassis for the FX118 Fury Wagon for adding 4 wheel steering. This chassis does not restrict suspension movement & can flex the suspension far more than the stock aluminum chassis allows. So many shock mounting positions & the chassis is carbon fiber for low weight. Great buy if you want the most out of your FX118 Fury Wagon.

Bought this chassis along with lots of up grades. The front suspension for shocks is to high. Drive shafts don't fit and front diff is very close to motor. The rear fits fine. After 2 days of going thru all options to get it to work it never fit properly. Put all my upgrades back on the original frame and it went good. Spent several days with furitek to to get it figured out. Was a hassle to get money back and they were aware of the issue. And no instructions with it and none of the holes are tapped like the original frame making it more difficult to build. I should have done more research on this before I bought it. Do not recommend buying it and dealing with furitek was terrible.

Tedious to put together. Metal driveshafy hits motor at full compression.

Nice looking chassis, screws could be longer. Have to do some adjusting to fit cedar motor.

Excellent upgrade for my Fury Wagon FX118 sleek design, easy assembly highly recommended

This was a lot of fun even without any instructions. I can see where a non-mechanical person might have trouble assembling this. The frame is good, but the included hardware is cheap. I did some upgrades while I had everything apart. Very pleased with the outcome this little thing is a crawling beast. I really enjoyed assembling this and ready to build another one.

Super sleek although some of the hardware is to small.

Works really well, lots of shock placement to make do what you want it too!

The good: The frame is really nice quality, super light, good finish and they feel quite strong. Everything fits together quite nicely.

The bad: The hardware however, is another story. The hex screws are very short, only threading in a turn or two into the nuts. The Philips hardware should never be included in a 60 dollar kit, these tiny screws strip extremely easily and should have been Hex.

Instructions, even basic would be nice. I wish I'd known to insert the threaded balls for the links before assembling both sides of the chassis, as they're quite difficult to access with the chassis fully assembled.

Additionally, the front suspension cannot articulate with the metal upgraded front driveshaft. The shaft is too long and hits full compression when the front suspension is nearly fully extended, preventing the front suspension from compressing further.

I think it'll be a sweet kit when I've got it working, but it's going to be a headache of modifying parts and removing damaged fasteners to get there.

I love with the color scheme and the build reminds me of my Angry Sparrow. Seems to be lots of opportunity for shock placement and the curves are sexy. I don't think that it's the kind of frame to break any records but it will definitely hold its own. Thanks Furitek!!
