Engineered Advantages of the Serpent 500016 Off-Road Truck

The Serpent 500016 Off-Road Truck combines durability with detailed setup choices so drivers can optimise handling for each circuit. The design emphasises serviceability and flexible tuning ranges for competitive use.

Modular Weight System

Engineers provided multiple mounting locations to alter the 500016's weight distribution. Using brass and aluminium weights around electronics and the servo allows quick shifts in balance to suit varied grip levels.

Quick-Adjust Battery Mounts

Carbon battery holders and adjustable straps replace fixed battery trays, making battery swaps and position changes straightforward. This approach supports both low CG setups and higher positions for different grip conditions.

Reinforced Front Bulkhead

The front has been updated with split bulkhead supports to control flex and improve impact handling. A stronger aluminium front bulkhead reduces damage risk and adjustable camber mounting points help refine steering characteristics.

Precision Roll and Steering Control

Adjustable caster and steering blocks let you tune roll center and steering reaction, while revised anti-roll bar mounts increase chassis balance and predictability through complex sections.

Designed for tuners, the Serpent 500016 handles a variety of environments while offering room to evolve setups. It is suited to drivers progressing from club racing to more demanding events.

Tyre choice depends on surface; softer compounds for loose dirt and medium compounds for carpet tend to work well. Match tyre width to your camber and toe settings for consistent wear.
While the kit is aimed at tuners, basic setups are achievable with a simple rule of small changes at a time. Track notes and measured adjustments help beginners learn quickly.
Yes, many owners fit alternative shock pistons, springs and thicker anti-roll bars to tailor handling. Check compatibility before swapping mounting geometry.
Some components share common form factors, but mounting points and geometry can differ. Verify part numbers and fitment notes before assuming interchangeability.
Clean dirt from suspension pivots, check for play in bulkheads and lubricate bearings. Inspect straps and battery mounts and retorque screws after each event.
