Mastering the Track with the Serpent 804009 Natrix 748-e
The Serpent 804009 Natrix 748-e is a testament to advanced RC engineering, crafted for those who demand excellence on the racing circuit. This 1/10 scale electric touring car is built with cutting-edge materials and technology to ensure top-tier performance. Designed by renowned engineers Michael Salven and Nacho Lopez, this model stands out in the competitive world of RC racing.
Engineering Excellence: From Chassis to Suspension
At the heart of the Natrix 748-e is a meticulously engineered carbon fiber chassis that provides the perfect blend of strength and flexibility. The symmetrical design ensures even torsion and flex, essential for maintaining stability at high speeds. The independent double wishbone suspension, complemented by RCCX SS shocks, allows for precise handling and adaptability on various track conditions.
Powertrain and Performance
The 4WD system, driven by kevlar-reinforced timing belts, ensures power is distributed efficiently to all wheels, enhancing traction and acceleration. With gear differentials on both the front and rear axles, the Natrix 748-e achieves seamless power delivery, allowing it to reach speeds exceeding 105 km/h. The expertly crafted aluminum motor mount doubles as a mid-shaft holder, optimizing weight distribution and ensuring swift gear changes.
Customizability and Precision
Customization is key for any racer, and the Natrix 748-e offers extensive adjustability. From the steering blocks to the camber and caster angles, every aspect can be fine-tuned to suit individual driving styles. The inclusion of ballraced anti-roll bars and ultra-low LCG steering/servo systems further enhances its agility and responsiveness, making it a formidable competitor on any track.
