flowRMX A800RR Conversion Kit

Coming from new French start-up flowRMX comes this conversion kit for the Awesomatix A800R and A800RR Electric Touring Cars. Designed by Alexis Banderier, the kit came out of his frustration after switching from his A800MMX to the R. While the A800R is one of the fastest touring cars on the market, drivers coming from the A800MMX found it tail-happy and difficult to trust Based on this Banderier went back to the basics he knew and redesigned the suspension geometry. He altered pickup points, lower arm lengths and lower arm front and back length difference (Front vs Rear) to bring back a car that’s genuinely stable without killing its rotation. The kit includes a custom stainless steel chassis, 4x flowRMX geometry carbon lower arms, and a full special screw set for Steel Chassis .
