As the TLR Race Team continues to push the envelope of performance for the 22-4, they have found the weight distribution and overall balance of the 22-4 to be much better when running a “shorty” LiPo on the left side of the chassis and mounting the ESC on the right. This moves the weight a little more forward overall, improves the corner weight balance, and reduces the total weight by 75-100g (depending on the battery pack used). This new configuration is used on most all TLR 22-4 setups since mid-2014 including Ryan Maifield’s 2015 Reedy Race Champion setup. Designed as a direct replacement, no other parts are needed to convert to your 22-4!

Key features:

Chassis is designed to fit a “shorty LiPo” without any modification to the chassis or mud guard
Aluminum battery stop included allows for shorty pack to be mounted in the front or rear position
Additional milling to chassis lowers the total weight by 18-20g
An open pocket under the motor has proven to lower motor temperatures approximately 20-30 degrees Fahrenheit
CNC Machined from 2.5mm thick 7075-T6 Aluminum
Directly fits onto the 22-4 without the need for any other parts or modifications
