Ladder frame

[CumminsFan]

Does anyone have a ladderframe temper? What would the pros and cons be vs the vertical plate chassis? I'm looking to go to a ladder frame in the future

You realize that a Ladder Framed Temper is a Barrage right
That's basically it. But yeah, I made one. Took an Integy frame, some SCX10 hoops, Barrage skidplate and moved all my stuff over and made the Orange Truck.
World of difference. But it's a different vehicle. You lose all the Flex but gain a Trail Truck/Scaler.
I loved mine till I killed it. Blew the axles apart. One day I'll rebuild it.

Yes i do lol. Spent money upgrading the temper then realized i could've just bought a barrage, so why not build my own! I did see your build and i think I'll probably go that route. I'll probay go with a droop suspension if i do. Does the ladder frame five it a lower center of gravity?
