Infinity IF14 Speciale 1.5mm Alu Chassis

Infinity has released this optional 1.5mm aluminium chassis for its IF14 Speciale 1:10 Electric Touring Car.  It is designed to provide increased rigidity and a different handling balance compared to the standard configuration.  The chassis is combined together with a dedicated stainless steel screw kit, featuring special thin flat screws specifically designed to ensure optimal tightening and a perfect fit with the chassis geometry.  Also included in the new options are lower suspension arm balls, allowing the suspension arms to be mounted closer to the ground.  This solution offers additional setup flexibility and helps optimise the car’s handling characteristics.  For convenience, the stainless steel screws are also available separately as individual spare parts.

Serpent Viper 990e R 1:8 Onroad Kit

Having released their latest 1:8 Onroad competition nitro car back in November, Serpent has now released the electric version of the platform – the Viper 990e R.  Key features of the 990e R are a slight redesign to the chassis shape to enhance flex characteristics and improve handling.  The rear end has a smaller cut and the rear thickness has been reduced to give the perfect flex for this car.  Additionally, the new chassis features a second servo saver position, offering greater Ackermann adjustment options for even more precise steering performance.  The most significant updates are in the rear.  The new bulkheads are now easier to assemble, with the two rearmost screws much more accessible for quicker and more convenient maintenance.
