Xray XB8/GT Carbon Rear Arm Plates

Xray has introduced new set-up options for both their XB8 1:8 Buggy and 1:8 GT platforms with the release of new lower and uppoer carbon inserts for the rear arms.  The lower arm plate is designed to increase rear suspension stiffness for improved stability and precision in high-traction conditions.  The plate is easily mounted or removed from the rear suspension arms using four screws, allowing quick adjustment of rear suspension stiffness to suit different track conditions and handling requirements.  Recommended for medium to high traction conditions where the increased rear suspension stiffness improves corner speed, stability, and overall driving precision while making the car easier to drive.  Carbon upper reinforcement plate combined with the lower carbon stiffener creates maximum arm rigidity for high-traction conditions.  Reduced arm flex generates a freer rear suspension feel, improving corner speed while maintaining stable handling characteristics.  Recommended for medium to high-traction tracks.  Both inserts are machined from thicker premium-quality USA made carbon fibre material to provide increased stiffness compared to the thinner version.
