German Schumacher distributor CS Electronic have a front motor chassis for the Cat K1 Aero 4WD buggy available soon. Designed to shift the motor to the front, the chassis, cut from 2.5mm carbon fibre, will make for a more controllable handling and improved balance especially on high-bite surfaces such as astro turf, carpet, grass and sugared clay. By moving the motor 18mm forward the chassis is usable with both saddle pack and shorty LiPo batteries and it utilises an optional Cougar KF2 rear end for a more planted driving feeling and easier toe and anti-squat adjustments.
