The XRAY 351111 XB8E'16 Aluminum Chassis is crafted from Swiss 7075 T6 alloy and designed to reduce weight while keeping the rigidity needed for controlled handling. Its CNC manufacture provides consistent tolerances for repeatable setup.
With a narrower front and wider rear the chassis improves steering precision and rear stability. The 4mm shorter length shifts the centre of mass slightly forward to aid rotation, and the placement of the engine, radio box, fuel tank and center differential is arranged to support stable handling across surfaces.
The 3mm plate is CNC cut to tight specifications to lower stress concentrations while maintaining torsional strength. Anodising increases surface durability and reduces unnecessary mass, helping keep the centre of gravity low and chassis flex controlled.
Fit the #351159 XB8 Composite Chassis Side Guards L+R for proper assembly. Note that small cracks can appear near high-tension spots after hardcoating on Swiss 7075 T6; such marks are cosmetic and do not affect how the chassis performs.
A solid option for builders who want a lighter, stiffer base for fine-tuning XB8E'16 setups, combining precision machining with durable material choice.
