Finally there is also a new middle shaft, which too has been made from 64 titanium for extra weight benefits without sacrificing strength.

CSO Carbon chassis plate for 733

CSO Carbon chassis plate for 733

New from CSO RC Racing products in Hong Kong is this carbon chassis plate for the Serpent 733 1/10th scale chassis. This CNC machined plate is made from high quality 3.5mm thick carbon fibre and while looking great, we can’t help but think that this goes away from the principle that it is better to keep the cars heavy parts as low as possible, by making this part so lightweight it would raise the centre of gravity.
