Performance driven driveshaft upgrade

Built for Serpent 1/18 cars like the 966 and 977, the Serpent 903601 aluminium CVD driveshaft set is a focused weight-saving upgrade. Made from hard-anodized 7075-T6 aluminium and laser-marked with length and the Serpent logo, these shafts combine neat looks with consistent sizing.

Reduced rotational mass for punchier response

These aluminium shafts weigh roughly 50% less than equivalent spring-steel parts, cutting rotating mass to improve both pull-off acceleration and braking feel. The front shafts weigh about 7.15 grams and the rears about 7.80 grams, which helps fine-tune handling for short race formats.

Practical advice on usage

While the weight savings are clear, aluminium is not as tough as spring steel, so these driveshafts are best reserved for qualifying or short heats. For long mains or heavy-impact tracks, fit spring-steel driveshafts to preserve parts life.

They are intended for Serpent 1/18 models and will work with compatible diff outputs. Verify spline fit and shaft length when pairing with nonstandard differentials.
Reducing rotating mass can make the car feel sharper; you may want to soften throttle mapping or tweak gearing to balance traction and top speed for your track conditions.
Inspect and replace any damaged shaft rather than trying to straighten it. Replacement is straightforward with standard hobby tools and keeps handling predictable.
