XRAY 301028 - X4 26 Spring Steel Chassis 1.2mm Hardened  [XR-301028]

1.2mm Hardened Spring Steel Chassis

The XRAY 301028 1.2mm spring steel chassis is an RC-scale replacement part engineered for the X4 26 platform. Made from Hudy Spring Steel, the plate is hardened and black coated with laser engraving. Its design balances added mass and a low center of gravity to stabilise handling on medium- to high-traction carpet and high-traction asphalt surfaces.

Key design elements include targeted flex cutouts and a tapered bottom edge that reduce unwanted chassis contact during cornering. The 84mm narrow width and specific cut patterns reduce traction rolling and help the car remain composed over curbs and track markers. These characteristics make the chassis useful for drivers tuning for consistent lap times rather than abrupt steering responses.

Installation and tuning notes: the chassis replaces the standard plate on compatible X4 26 kits and should be checked for clearance around motor, ESC, and suspension mounts. Small ride-height and shock tuning changes are recommended after fitting to accommodate the lower center of gravity and altered weight distribution. As with all RC-scale steel parts, inspect mounting hardware for proper torque and check for chassis-to-body or track contact during initial runs.

This chassis is intended for hobbyists seeking a hardened spring steel option to tailor handling on higher-traction surfaces where reduced traction rolling and improved stability are desired.
