Vorteks Vorteks LWB - flimsy roof/shell

[Honerbunch]

For those that converted to LWB. It seems the shell roof becomes super flimsy when you move the mounting points further back. Is this a potential weak spot or is it fine as it is? I'm afraid the shell will tear with only a few bad roof landings/crashes.

Just slap some drywall tape on the inside with shoe goo or similar. Adds strength and durability to the shell. Tons of vids out there for "how to".

If this is the mega vorteks body its made from pvc. Its not lexan... its the kind of material you get from Chinese bodies. Thats might be why its so flimsy. But reinforce it. I tend to like flimsy bodies more than thicker lexans because thickers like to crack and pull off the paint when reinforced rendering the reinforcement useless vs flexible even if it cracks shoe goo stays in place and keeps ur body togueter.
