Serpent Natrix 748-e 200mm 1/10 Touring Car Assembly Kit

Natrix 748-e 1/10 200mm ep car State of the art 200mm electric powered 200mm racing car. 4wd, 2-belt drive, geardiffs, fully adjustable suspension, RCCX SS shocks, machined motor -mount and mid shaft mount, carbon fiber chassis, topdeck, shocktowers and batterybraces, springsteel transmission parts, ballraced anti-rollbars and ultra low LCG steering/ servo system. Design by Michael Salven and Nacho Lopez.

• superlight racing chassis,
• 2-belt drive system,
• front and rear compact geardiffs
• carbon chassisplate,
• carbon topdeck
• carbon shocktowers f rand rr
• Carbon battery holders
• ballraced anti-rollbars,
• fully adjustabe suspension,
• innovative fully adjustable steeringblocks
• aluminum motormounts which doubles up as midshaft holder and rear anti-roll bar holder
• ballraced midshaft is mounted in seperate brackets to allow easy and fast spurgear changes
• very low steeringservo position, with centrally mounted supports in alu/carbon structure
• 2 alu L-shaped topdeck supports with integrated ballraced belt tensioners
• Main advantages of an electric 200mm car are:
• 200mm is more stabile and easier to be fast than with 190mm
• Very suitable also to use on larger 1/8 scale gastracks
• Use of wider foam tyres, makes racing easier, and no need for tyre oil
• Can handle both 2S and 3S battery packs, use 1/10 or even 1/8 speedo.
• Very strong and durable , as based on front and suspension of the heavier 1/10 scale gascars
• Good range of optionals
• Good range of bodies and tyres, even better when you race 1/10 gp too
• Silent but very fast, so ideal for rc tracks that dont allow GP cars (after certain hours).

Chassis:
Symmetrical chassisplate for even flex and torsion in 3mm carbon fiber, lowered where the motor mounts as low as possible in the car.

Topdeck:
The 2mm carbon fiber topdeck connect the front and rear suspension.

SuperShort RCM shocks:
Coated threaded shockbodies in high quality aluminium. Supersmooth o-ring / bushing package, to guide and seal the spring-steel piston rods. Precision moulded pistons included in 3 types. Threaded pre-load shocknuts in alu with o-ring inside. Light but strong nylon spring-cups. Selected, matched and paired shockabsorber springs with color coding.

Front bumper and bodymount:
Front bumper with aerodynamic effects and excellent protection. Some parts of the lower bumper can be cut open to create more steering. Medium or small foam bumper pad scan still be fitted as optional. The upper carbon fiber bodyplate mounts to the front bumper with alu post and secures the front bdyposts

Suspension front:
Strong long double A-arm suspension with aluminium pivotballs, which pivot in light nylon cups. Hard type composite arms. The arms pivot on the inside on springsteel pins. The pivot-inserts are used to change rollcenter. Small grubscrews mount in the upper bracket to control downstop. Easy to access and change ride height, front width, toe-in, caster and camber.

Wheelaxles / cvd:
The spring-steel wheelaxles are seated in high speed bearings. The light and durable spring-steel cvd�s bring all the power to the front wheels. Wheels are mounted to orange anodised high grade aluminium hex-adaptors using flanged wheelnuts.

Anti-roll bar front:
The ballraced wire type anti-rollbar in the front is really easy to access and change for other type or thickness as needed. The anti-roll bar is linked to the lower a-arms with a unique pivotball/cup system, which provides direct and smooth operation and is easy to set and adjust.

Servo-saver / steering:
The new lowered centraly mounted steel servo-saver post fits the spring-loaded ballraced servo-saver system and steering. The inserts allow 2 ackermann settings. Due to the open design the linkages with L/R threading can be reached easily. The whole system allows for very precise steering and minimum bumpsteer.

Rear carbon shocktower and camber bracket:
The low 3.0mm carbon shocktower has 3 upper mounting position for the shocks and it mounts the body-posts. The camber bracket offers 8 positions to choose from, 4 inner and 4 out holes. The shocktower is prepared to mount the extra body-protectors, which are optional.

Suspension rear:
The Hard lower rear composite arms together with the updated uprights create a wider set-up sweet-spot with more grip and more steering. The upper camber rods connect to the carbon camber bracket with 8 mounting positions for roll-center and the camber rod is easy to access and has L/R threading for fast changes. The aluminium pivotball system allows for fast changes in width and toe-in. On the lower inside the wishbone pivots on springsteel pins, which seat with roll-center inserts in the anodised alu suspension brackets.

748 Gear-differentials:
Compact, durable and lighter gear differential. Precision moulded steel gears, 2 small 14T and 2 large 28T ones. The very durable and light spring steel lightened diff-adaptors connect to the driveshafts. Front and rear geardifferential share the same internal parts.
