Main Chassis: The main chassis is comprised of an aluminum battery tray that is the foundation for the damper blade suspension. The front chassis plate is machined from 7075 T6 aluminum while the rear flex plate and pivot plate are machined from heat treated steel to keep the center of gravity ultra low. Premium carbon fiber components complete the main chassis.
Front Suspension: The front suspension is sliding kingpin style front end but with refinements to the details to allow improved consistency and driving precision. The 5 degree front kingpins are machined from titanium with a ti-nitride coating paired with low friction steering block bushings that feature an internal groove to carry grease that keeps the front end damping consistent from start to finish.
-3.0 degree steering blocks come standard along with our 4.6lb front springs. The front carbon plate is extremely solid to minimize flex for the most precise feel possible while having a simple 3 bolt mounting system that keys into the chassis mounts for perfect alignment every time. The front end is also paired with our own servo saver that comes standard with an aluminum crank to reduce the package size and allow the servo to be mounted as low as possible.
Rear Suspension: The rear suspension is the first multi-axis suspension system of its kind. Featuring four pivots that provide adjustable roll center and the ability to change roll axis of the chassis while isolating the roll vs bump characteristics.
Bump and roll characteristics can be adjusted using optional flex pivot’s that allows improved rough track handling as well as increased forward traction. These changes can be made in a matter of seconds with optional flex pivots and O-rings. This design is combined with our rotary damper rod that is seated into the battery tray. These rotary damper rods can be fined tuned for a variety of track conditions while the kit comes standard with 2.7lb rear springs.
Rear Pod: The rear axle tube is machined from one solid piece of aluminum to ensure perfect bearing alignment. The rear axle tub features an alignment mark to assist with rear track width measurements.
The lightened titanium rear axle features a knurled end that the right-side hub is pressed onto to ensure a permanent bond between the axle and the hub.
