6061T6 Aluminium Chassis Details

The 3mm 6061T6 aluminium chassis plate is machined with countersunk holes and angled sides to increase stiffness. An integrated foam bumper protects the front end and composite stiffeners fine-tune chassis flex characteristics.

Suspension and Steering Durability

Robust oversized arms and composite uprights give a durable platform for aggressive driving. Steel wheel axles and precision-threaded aluminium hubs keep wheel alignment true, supported by a front anti-roll bar and 10 degree steering blocks for crisp turn-in.

Large-Bore Shock Setup

RCM 16mm big-bore shocks with anodized aluminium bodies and hardened shock rods provide consistent damping. Colour-coded progressive springs are matched and inspected to ensure uniform ride height and response.

Compact Differentials and Two-Speed Gearbox

Sealed gear diffs use sintered metal gears on a steel shaft for dependable power transfer. The SL8 XLI two-speed automatic gearbox, based on the Viper 990, offers reliable shifts during acceleration and corner exits.

Engine and Radio Equipment

The Serpent S21 pull start engine sits on machined aluminium mounts for stability. Control electronics include the DragonRC DTS-3 2.4GHz transmitter and a 15kg metal gear steering servo for precise inputs at speed.

Painted Body and Premounted Tyres

Supplied with a pre-painted, pre-cut ultra-low GT bodyshell and rear wing, the car also comes with premounted DragonRC GT tyres for immediate on-track traction. The full-colour manual aids setup and tuning steps.

The Serpent 600062 SRX8 GT RTR is built for hobbyists seeking a durable, tunable 1/8 scale gas racer that is quick to prepare for competition.
