Atomic MRV 1:28 V-Link RWD Chassis Kit

1:28 specialist manufacturer RC Atomic has announced the upcoming release of its MRV kit.  The MRV has Atomic’s new developed side link RWD chassis which features a new idea, inspired from 1:10 pan car (Fenix Racing), the V-Link pivot system. With this new solution they have been able to further lower the chassis roll centre which couldn’t be achieved previously because of physical limitations that you cannot fix a centre pivot ball below the chassis plate – e.g the MRZ and similar platforms on the market which use Horizontal center pivot ball.  While the V-Link system offering a “virtual roll centre”, where the imaginary joint of the 2 short pivot links, that is ultra-low and result in more mechanical grip when the car attacking corners, more mid corner speed and linear steering response.  This makes the car easier to drive, with more rear grip, and more speed exiting corners.  How do you choose between MRX and MRV ? The MRX is more suitable for open class with high KV motors and big tracks, because link-less system offers better overall stability. The new MRV is good for lower KV motors, such as 2500kv or stock class, since the MRV is lighter and more responsive in handling especially suit for small or tight tracks.
