The framework accommodates the Semi-Split bulkheads and suspension system holders, and features milled pockets into the rear part for increased chassis flex. The chassis is a significant component that plays a role in the XB8’s handling characteristics. The framework proportions and flex traits are chosen for the greatest blend of security, traction and steering. The framework is machined for additional approval in bulkheads to allow for the diff height adjustment feature. The framework fits both SOFT and TRICKY composite radio containers without chassis modification. The chassis is CNC-machined from 3mm top-notch Swiss 7075 T6 aluminum; strategically machined in low-stress areas then anodized to make it as light as you possibly can without impacting power or rigidity.
