All-new, redesigned XB8E chassis has enhanced weight balance to boost the cars management. The leading for the framework is narrower to improve steering, a corner of the chassis is wider to improve security, together with general length is 4mm shorter with weight balance relocated forward (including engine, radio package, fuel tank, and center diff). The framework is CNC-machined from 3mm top-quality Swiss 7075 T6 aluminum, strategically machined in low-stress areas, and then anodized making it as light possible without affecting power or rigidity. Non-essential product underneath the engine, fuel tank, and differential ended up being eliminated to permit for the cheapest possible center of gravity and optimal framework flex.
Must be utilized with #351159 XB8 Composite Chassis Side Guards L+R. Note: Swiss 7075 T6 is an incredibly rigid aluminum material. After the hardcoating procedure, in a few infrequent cases some small cracks can happen (as an example, around openings or on sides) in which tension into the material is highest. Those little cracks are an all-natural effect and also no negative impact on the performance, reliability, or lifespan for the product, and as such are not regarded as a defect.
Due the nature of this aluminum material therefore the machining procedure, it's normal your framework might slightly bent within the longitudinal direction.
