Zen-Racing GT12 inline bellcrank conversion

Zen-Racing GT12 inline bellcrank conversion

Zen-Racing’s inline bellcrank conversion is a simple kit to convert the Zen RSGT12 to inline LiPo configuration with bellcrank steering arrangement. The bellcrank offers much more control over the Ackermann change and can improve the ability to run more lock and gain further corner speed on tight hairpins. Having the LiPo in-line will improve the change of direction but not increase the overall steering feel, this is complemented by using the bellcrank steering option.
