ETC3 TNG V7.1 Carbon Fibre Chassis Features

• 12 gm lighter than FT Graphite chassis. Even greater weight savings realized if upgrading from standard components.
  
• 3mm carbon fibre upper/lower chassis.
  
• Altered component placement to improve weight distribution.
  
• 2 battery configurations (3/3 or 4/2) in combination with additional battery slot yields 4 options for battery placement. This provides a method to alter wheel weight balance and chassis dynamics in roll, pitch and yaw.
  
  

  Predicted Chassis Weight Balance

  Battery Placement	Weight Balance
  	Left	Right	Front	Rear
  4/2 aft	50.0%	50.0%	49.2%	50.8%
  4/2 forward	50.0%	50.0%	50.2%	49.8%
  3 aft/3	48.6%	51.4%	50.1%	49.9%
  3 forward/3	48.6%	51.4%	51.4%	48.6%

  Note: Weight balance varies slightly depending on placement and weight of electronics and servo

• Roll, pitch and yaw mass properties improved by up to 5%. Best overall improvement with 4/2 aft battery placement.
  
• Uses standard TC3 motor adjustment mount and hardware.
