Serpent SER300030 F190 1/8 4WD Electric RC Car Kit - Track F1 Replica  [SER300030]

Serpent F190: Scaled F1 Proportions with Hobby Grade Parts

The Serpent F190 recreates the look and driving cues of early 2000s Formula 1 cars in a robust 1/8 scale package. Its combination of accurate body shape and serviceable aluminium components makes it a strong platform for track day driving and further upgrades.

Lightweight Carbon Base and Solid Bulkheads

The chassis centres on a carbon base plate supported by 7075-T6 aluminium bulkheads to give a stiff yet lightweight foundation. Body aerodynamics are tuned to manage airflow and enhance high speed stability on fast circuits.

High Strength Drive Train and Balanced Differentials

Key components in the drivetrain are manufactured from spring steel and 7075-T6 aluminium for longevity under load. The 4WD configuration aids traction, while the HTD differentials allow you to set power distribution for predictable handling.

Coilover Shocks and Front Spool for Predictable Balance

The front spool setup combined with oil-filled coilover shocks gives a predictable balance and helps prevent snap oversteer. Swap springs and pistons to suit smooth or rough surfaces and tune the roll characteristics.

Authentic Wheel Fitment and Foam Tyres

The kit uses scale wheels with closed-cell foam tyres designed to offer consistent lap-to-lap grip. This setup gives a realistic single seater feel without frequent tyre replacement.

Generous Electronics Bay and Easy Gear Adjustment

Space for large battery packs and a wide selection of ESCs and brushless motors makes installation straightforward. The 7075-T6 motor mount with sliding adjustment simplifies gear mesh alignment during maintenance or upgrades.

The F190 is suited to hobbyists who want an F1 style racer that accepts performance electronics and can be tuned for different track conditions while keeping scale authenticity.
