Exotek Racing HBX LiPo Chassis for Cyclone

Exotek Racing have released the high performance multi adjustment HBX balanced LiPo chassis for the Hot Bodies Cyclone. With the unique CNC manufactured stainless steel weights the LiPo battery can be positioned to have equal left and right balance within grams without the need to add lead weight and without raising the battery up higher. Completely compatible with all Cyclone chassis’, it is designed and tested to equalize lateral flex. No more inconsistent flex problems caused by 6 large battery cut outs like in the stock chassis resulting is much more predictable handling. The 2mm thick chassis mimics the flex of the stock chassis, but by deleting the 6 NiMh battery cut outs it effectively stiffens the chassis so reducing the thickness to 2mm puts a little flex back into the chassis for improved traction.
