CARBON FIBRE CHASSISPLATE IN 2.5MM:

Narrow chassis in high quality woven carbon fibre, stiff type, but enough flex to create more grip as needed.  Countersunk holes in the bottom for  an even surface.  The chassis layout offers various ways  to mount the battery central or backwards, and the servo can be mounted in 2 ways too more front or more to the rear.   This allows the driver to play with weight distribution which has a big effect in F1. The battery and servo, together with the motor are among the heaviest parts in the car.

CARBON FIBRE BODYMOUNT AND TOPDECK:

The bodymount doubles as sidespringholder and tube holder.  Strong nylon bodymounts with fine tuning nuts for body-height.

CHASSIS AND HOLDERS FIT SHORTY PACKS:

The kit includes the 2 carbon side-plates, so the speedo and receiver can be mounted on the side of the chassis, still centrally to retain a perfect balance.  Composite holders kepe the Shorty packs well positioned. The Shorty packs nowadays have so much power, that a regular 2S packs in no longer needed to fit.

REARWARD BATTERY AND SERVO (DEFAULT):

FORWARD BATTERY AND FORWARD SERVO:

FORWARD SERVO AND REARWARD BATTERY:

DURABLE SPRINGLOADED STEERINGBLOCKS WITH PIVOT BALLS:

The steeringblocks are spring loaded on the kingpin, and create supersmooth suspension travel  . Various springs available. The kingpin inclication can be easily changed with inserts. From zero to four degrees, with 2 being default. All inserts are included. The steeringblocks offer 2 ackermann positions. 

STRONG SERVO HOLDER AND SERVO SAVER:

The aluminium servo mounts  allow the servo to be mounted flat on its side, in either a front or more backwards position. The new centre pivot type steering system is very smooth and precise, as well as durable and offers 2  inner ackermann positions.   The car can be used with the included small servo-saver ( includes splines in 23/24/25T)  or solid with a lever ( also 3 included).

ADJUSTABLE RIDE HEIGHT:

Adjustable ride height to suit both rubber and foam tyres
The chassis offers the possibility to easily change the ride height with spacers.

FRONT SUSPENSION WITH LOWER CARBON WISHBONES:

The fully adjustable front suspension allows for camber and caster changes, as well as toe and roll center adjustment. The manual shows a good  starting point as base set-up. The lower wishbone-plate is made in durable 2.5mm carbon fibre, and allow for enough flex.  The plate is machined thinner in the middle to allow the extra flex, especially when the full suspension pivotballs are used. The upper wishbones are adjustable to set camber.  Shims above or below the balls of the suspension can be used for roll-center adjustments. Caster is set with  the nylon inserts in the the front carbon topplate. Toe-in is set with the steering rods.

NEW, LIGHTWEIGHT CENTRAL SHOCKABSORBER RCC TYPE:

New, lightweight central shockabsorber RCC type with threaded housing for finetuning. A pivotball mounted  hydraulic central shockabsorber connects to upper front and rear assembly. The small shocktower offers 3 holes for set-up changes. The foam insert type shockabsober feature a hardened shockrod, smooth o-ring/shim package and  a threaded housing to enable spring preload changes with very small increments. The unique design enables also easy adjustment of the rear pod droop. The shockspring is selected and grinded flat for equal action.  More springstypes and silicone oils available to play with set-up.

SPRINGLOADED LINK-TYPE REAR SUSPENSION:

With single tube, the springloaded pivotball mounted side-links interact with the single silicone oil filled tube and the central upper shockabsorber to ceate maximum grip with the rear tyres.

STRONG AND LIGHT ALUMINIUM REAR AXLE:

The light aluminum rear axle is more durable and comes close to the weight of a carbon fibre one ( which sells as optional)

PANCAR STYLE REAR END: 

Strong carbon fibre lower pod and rear plate  and  aluminium powerpod sides. The right alu motorholder fits most commonly used motors . The light alu rear axle seats in bearings in nylon ride height inserts.  All 5 types rideheigts inserts are included in the kit.

CAPTURED PIVOTBALL CONNECTION:

The captured pivotball links the rear pod with the chassis.   This innovative rear-central pivot system which connect the rear pod in new way with the chassis, and thus prevents any binding, creating more effective sidelink action, at any angle.  With this set-up changing roll-center is also very easy.

DURABLE AND LIGHT BALL-DIFFERENTIAL WITH LIGHT ALU HEX WHEEL-HUBS:

The ball-raced ball differential is supersmooth and easy to assemble, with light hardened steel plates. The hexagon diff and wheel adaptor are also lightweight and spin supertrue.  One spur-gear  is included.

LARGE 2 LEVEL ADJUSTABLE REAR WING:

The realistic looking high downforce rear wing with 2 layers connects to the carbon rear plate.  The top-wing can be adjusted in 3 positions for less or more downforce / drag.

DIFFUSOR:

The kit include a moulded black diffusor for ground effect / areodymanic effects.  This is mounted  to a new backplate which also allows to change the rear wing height.

PROTOFORM F1 - 15 BODY:

The clear version F1 body is made by Protoform. It’s the F1 – 15 type body, which fits the car nicely and has very good performance, combined with the Serpent wings front and rear and as needed the diffusor too.

SUPERB LOOKING HIGH DOWNFORCE FRONT COMPOSITE WING:

The new realistic looking composite front F1 wing  creates lot of downforce. On both sides of the wing the main flaps are adjustable, 3 position to choose.  The nylon front bumper sits flush with the chassis and mounts rigidly with 2 large screws to the chassis.  The bumper will absorb hard frontal crashes.
