Schumacher Cougar LD3 Worlds Option Parts

Schumacher has released two new optional parts for its Cougar LD3 which last October team driver Broc Champlin used to take the buggy to the IFMAR 1:10 2WD World Championship title in Australia.  First of the new options is the Worlds Alloy Lower Plate that offers the ability to lower the centre of gravity of the front end by moving the servo down into a flat (horizontal) position, as well as further back.  This results in more stability through the corners and calms down the steering aggression.  Also offering increased stiffness, it can only be used with the flat (horizontal) servo position, and the new Worlds centre track rod.  The Worlds centre track rod features optional steering geometry to adjust the aggression of the steering through the corner.  This new inner hole position will help more with mid to exit steering.

The New Alloy Suspension Straps for the LD2/LD3 and ST2 encompasses the new pill system which allows a huge variety of adjustment.  Utilising the roll centre height adjustment of the standard LD3 and the pills allow for even less toe, plus even lower rear hinge pin heights.  This will improve the tool box of tuning adjustments from high to low grip.
