Introducing the Serpent 905001 tunable electric touring car

The Serpent 905001 offers a thoughtfully arranged chassis that emphasises adjustability and predictable handling. It is built to accept tuning changes easily so you can refine handling without complex modification.

Adjustability that adapts to your style

From quick spur gear swaps to tweak acceleration, to body mount height and ride height shims for balance changes, the Serpent 905001 provides a broad range of setup options for varying track demands.

Handling options inspired by the 988

With steering blocks that support both trailing and leading configurations, and upper arm mounts for long or short arms, this car gives you the tools to tune turn-in and mid-corner behaviour effectively.

Engineered belt system for steady drive

The belt tensioners at front and rear help keep drive tension consistent and cut down drivetrain lash. Combined with an adjustable servo saver, steering response stays accurate under load.

Powertrain flexibility for different runs

The adjustable battery mount accepts multiple pack sizes so you can choose packs that favour durability, runtime or a lower centre of gravity for sharper handling.

For hobbyists who enjoy setup work, the Serpent 905001 delivers a consistent baseline and extensive tuning paths to suit many driving preferences.

The chassis accepts a range of optional dampers. Start with medium valving shocks to get a neutral baseline, then adjust oil weight and spring rate to tune responsiveness.
Check belt tension before each session and after extended runs. Use the front and rear tensioners to correct slack and inspect for signs of wear.
Yes, the Serpent 905001 is suitable for a variety of on-road surfaces. Adjust tyre choice, ride height and camber to match carpet, asphalt or concrete.
Typical first upgrades include higher-quality dampers, a tuned motor/ESC combo to match gearing, and lightweight battery options to refine weight distribution.
The kit includes setup guidance and baseline geometry recommendations to get you on track. Use those as a starting point and adapt to your driving and track conditions.
