This aftermarket 4mm aluminium main chassis plate is built for compatibility with the TRAXXAS XO-1 platform and comes as a single set including stainless steel mounting screws. The heavier duty aluminium offers a firmer starting point compared with standard composite plates and is used to adjust chassis flex for tuning.
Careful installation helps ensure correct function: align motor and gearbox before progressively tightening fasteners, use the specified hex driver for the supplied screws, and avoid overtightening to prevent thread stripping or plate distortion. The change in chassis stiffness affects suspension behaviour and weight transfer, so small setup tweaks can produce significant handling differences.
This is an aftermarket hop-up for 1/7 to 1/8 scale XO-1 based speed models intended for hobby and track tuning purposes only. It is not suitable for use on real vehicles.
Fit this plate when you want added rigidity for top speed stability or when fine tuning suspension settings; always test handling changes in controlled runs.
