GL Racing GLR 1/27 RWD chassis kit w/o ESC

GL Racing’s new GLR 1/27th scale RWD chassis kit is now also available in an ESC-less version for those who wish to use their own choice of speed controller. The kit makes use of the same chassis that was introduced some days ago, however it comes without the standard Hobbywing ESC in favour of an aluminium servo mount for the included micro-size servo. The rolling chassis needs to be completed with optional items such as a receiver, 15mm brushless motor, a suitable speed controller, a 47x11x20mm 2S LiPo battery as well as Mini-Z-style wheels, and 98mm wheelbase body shell.

GL Racing GLR 1/27th scale RWD chassis kit

Coming from GL Racing is their new GLR 1/27th scale RWD chassis kit. The mini-size car utilises a design comparable to a 1/12th scale pan car, making for a low centre of gravity and low weight with the rear end sporting a tri-friction grease damper system, an aluminium alloy rear sub frame and a ball differential with 64 pitch gears. The front end is made up using carbon fibre, alloy and composite parts and that all is connected by a 98mm wheelbase carbon fibre chassis. Other features include a steering crank with built-in servo saver, a full metal gear servo with partial alloy casing and a side link system for maximum rear axle traction. The kit is rounded out by a Hobbywing brushless speed controller that is programmable with an optional program card.
