Body, motor, tires, R/C equipment, battery pack, and charger are sold separately.
This assembly kit takes the 2-belt driven TA08 chassis and makes it into a race-focussed unit with plenty of Hop-Up Options. It is equipped with a 2mm carbon fiber upper deck, plus a plastic lower deck with reinforcements for exemplary rigidity and superior steering that can be adjusted to your heart's content. A-shaped upper arms and a four-wheel double wishbone suspension setup are employed, while aluminum upper arm mounts ensure great rigidity. The rear body mount section has been stiffened for great traction.

-
The rigid aluminum servo mount minimizes inefficiency.
-
Steering tie-rods are in a linear arrangement to lessen the effect of suspension motion on toe angle. Brigde and arms are aluminum.
-
Aluminum mounts make for great upper A-arm rigidity. Low friction king pin balls are used atop and below the uprights.
-
A close up on the super short big bore dampers. 43mm drive shafts and 4mm clamp-type hex hubs are employed.

-
The 2mm carbon fiber upper deck boosts pitching rigidity. A rear ball bearing lends smoothness to the chassis flex.
-
The aluminum motor mount has upper deck attachment points front and rear.
-
Additional ribs on the lower deck minimize flex. Adjustable suspension mounts are employed.
-
Rear universal shafts use 43mm swing shafts, TRF420 wheel axles and low friction cross joints.
