Mugen MBX7R Evo 1/8th E-buggy kit

Mugen MBX7R Evo 1/8th E-buggy kit

Based off of the MBX7R is Mugen’s latest 1/8th E-buggy kit, the MBX7R Eco. The kit features some subtle design changes and updated parts compared to the MBX7 Eco, as are the 7075 aluminium chassis with optimised side angles for increases strength and better on-track feeling on all surfaces. Also part of the package are newly designed front uprights with a trailing axle position and 8x16mm bearings. Additionally the rear hubs received a make over to allow the use of 8×16 or 15x21mm bearings in combination with the newly designed rear driveshafts. While being in the suspension compartment, the 7R Eco also features new 1.6mm shorter front A-arms to allow the use of a spacer between the arm and the pivot ball while the rear arms are adapted to make way for the new rear universals. Other new parts include a revised Ackermann plate with five mounting positions for the steering links, and a new wing stay to move the wing forward as far as 10.5mm for improved traction. The kit is rounded out by a set of 16mm front and rear big bore shock absorbers.
