Capricorn got in touch to tell us about their new 1/8 scale setup system and ultra lightweight chassis for the LAB C-801. The setup is specially designed to allow the adjustment of the the rear camber and toe settings without the need to remove the body mount. Cut-outs in the aluminium camber and polycarbonate toe plates leave room for the body mount. This makes for fast and easy set-up changes. The updated ultra lightweight chassis for the LAB C-801 features a re-designed front area with additional material removed under the front bulkhead area resulting in more torsional flex creating an increased steering response with the positive effect of saving some weight.
