Re: pic: 6WD Chassis

I would definitely keep 1/8" wall for the outside perimeter, and I would question the need for that upper deck. I like the battery box. You may consider flipping the battery around, and putting a mounting tab to hard mount the Anderson Powerpole connector to the box.

Having the middle wheel could be useful for games with ramps, such as 2006. 696 did a design similar to this, and it allowed them to use 3.5" wheels and have only 3/16" ground clearance, and still negotiate the ramp without high centering.
