The RC8B4.1e is a kit that requires assembly. Follow the included detailed assembly guide for step-by-step instructions. Key features influencing setup and performance include:
- RWB/FWB Adjustable Weight Bias Chassis: This innovative system allows for tuning the weight distribution to optimize rear grip or steering response. The motor can be positioned either rearward for increased traction or forward for enhanced steering by adjusting the center differential and flipping the center dogbones.
- Low CG Shock Towers: New low center of gravity (CG) and lightweight aluminum front and rear shock towers contribute to improved handling and stability.
- Shock Configuration: Shorter 16mm front and rear shock bodies, along with 6-hole 1.4mm front and 1.5mm taper rear machined shock pistons, are included. These components, combined with emulsion shock cap seals, provide precise dampening characteristics.
- Rear Suspension Arms: The 3-hole rear suspension arms feature updated rear anti-roll bar geometry, allowing for fine-tuning on various track conditions, from smooth to bumpy.
