The Serpent 904229 aluminium chassis is an RC-scale replacement part specified for the Viper 990e R platform (SER904008). It serves as the main structural plate for the model and is intended to be used where aluminium stiffness and consistent mounting points are required for setup work and tuning.
Designed for hobby use on 1/10 electric touring car builds, the chassis focuses on predictable rigidity and stable component mounting. That stability assists in repeatable adjustments to suspension, motor placement, and weight distribution without altering other stock components.
Installation follows standard 1/10 touring car procedures: remove the existing chassis plate, transfer any necessary standoffs and hardware, and re-fit electronics and drivetrain components to the matching mounting holes. Use correct-length screws and verify clearance for the motor, ESC, and servo before final tightening.
For tuning, this aluminium chassis is positioned as a baseline component: it changes torsional stiffness compared with plastic or composite plates, so expect differences in traction and steering response that you can address through shock settings, anti-roll adjustments, and tyre choice. Regular inspection for wear at screw points and mounting interfaces is recommended to maintain consistent behaviour.
Use this chassis when you need a durable aluminium base for setup work and predictable handling adjustments on the Viper 990e R platform.
