The buggy accommodates various battery types, including straight, separate, or short Li-Po batteries, allowing adjustments to the center of gravity by changing the battery position.
Performance Enhancements
With tungsten diff balls and reinforced idler gears, the Ultima RB6 boasts increased strength and performance. The large slipper clutch is designed to match the output of high-power motors, while gun metallic anodized aluminum parts add a sleek finish to the model.
