We're not too sure at the moment as we just obtained the sponsor. I hear the standard turnaround time seems to be a week or so, but I have yet to find out what ours will be.
My personal factors in the chassis are
•$@#Learning Curve
• Ease of fabrication
• Strength
• Weight
For right now, it's fairly easy for us to put build tube-based structures and I want us to learn more, but the amount of knowledge to pull off an entire sheet chassis might be too high. Thanks for the input guys.
