Awesomatix A800FXR 1:10 FWD Touring Car

Awesomatix has unveiled their latest FWD touring car with the new A800FXR featuring an innovative two-piece, bi-material chassis plate. With the A800R platform reaching its maturity, the A800FXR builds on the proven A800R touring car concept – shortened chassis plate for minimal overhang and chassis rub and improved damping characteristics over the FX Evo platform – while retaining the successful drivetrain and steering geometry of its predecessor. It also benefits from more than two years of extensive development of its touring car counterpart. The standout feature of the A800FXR kit is its two-piece, bi-material chassis plate. The forward section, made of aluminium, supports the front end, transmission, and electronics, while a carbon fibre rear section holds the rear assembly. While offering improved weight distribution and refined flex characteristics it brings unparalleled tunability as it allows four different wheelbase settings, truly redefining the phrase “the best of both worlds”.

Only after many tests did they also managed to find the right material and the right treatment for the chassis. Using the steel chassis, Mikimodel say they have found an extremely balanced combination, giving the possibility of extremely easy driving in different conditions.
