Kraton Stock chassi stiffener plate and carbon brace tubes

[JMS RC]

Been a bit unlucky with my stock chassi a few times, twisted it in the front bent in the back, tore it all down and had big plans, 7075 chassi, Crusher chassi. Well plan changed for now, just gonna put it back together, some improvements though, homemade chassi stiffener, the v1.5 rear upgrade from Arrma and carbon reinforced brace tubes, might not be a permanent solution but at least a bit better for now. What I really need is a big RPM front skid/bumper or a T-Bone something to deflect away the impact from the lower stock bumper.

Finally managed to get some proper screws to install to this plate, guess you gotta visit the hardware store for these larger scales,
next up some type of skid/basher, not to take a direct hit but more like deflecting it.

I’ve been contemplating doing something like this. I’m very hard on my chassis and figured this would help.

This picture 9756 with bent stiffening plate and chassis - did this happened before or after v1.5 upgrades?
Just of curiosity - how did you bent almost 10mm of metal?
