The Serpent Cobra Buggy 2.1 is a result of continuous development and intensive
cooperation with the key team-drivers. The changes for the 2.1 version are not
very big, but very important to make you go around the track easier and faster.
The longer chassis combined with the 14 degree castorblocks offer a really big
difference in overall handling.

Features:
Chassisplate
4mm longer hard anodised chassisplate in 3mm 7075 T6 aluminium , with machined
pockets to create flex make lighter. Kick-up angle on front for stabile landings.
Countersunk holes. Slots to locate the front and rear suspension mounts precisely.
Angled sides to increase stiffness. Laser engraved Cobra logo.
Bumper
Aligned with chassis kikc-up for precise landings and to protect front suspension
holder and anti-roll bar.
Chassis stiffners
Aluminium longer rear stiffner, and composite front stiffner, to give extra
stiffness, but still allow some flex as needed.
Central radio / servo mount
Composite radiobox which offers good space for the steering and throttle -servo,
the receiver and rx battery. The whole assembly including linkages can be taken
off easily and fast in one go, when cleaning the car, or doing maintenance.
One extra post is added close to the servo for stability.
Servo arms and linkages
The servo arms have a splined insert to have the right fit per brand. The linkages
run very clean and tight and are easy to access to modify settings.
Suspension brackets
Beautifully machined 7065 T6 suspension brackets in anodized, laser angraved.
Precision fit for the nylon roll center inserts and pivot balls / pins.
Steeringblocks assembly
Composite steeringblocks combined with 14 dgr black anodised aluminium C-hubs
for precise steering. Composite 10 and 12 dgr c-hubs are also included. Spring
steel wheel-axles with large size bearings and larger inner with precision threaded
aluminum wheel-hubs with offset . Flanged and serrated wheel nuts.
Front suspension
Durable oversized lower suspension arms in strong composite nylon. On the lower
side the special shaped downstops screws are mounted. The lower shock-mounting
pins are secured with a small grubscrew from the bottom.
Front anti-roll bar
The ballraced front anti-roll bar system, consist of a spring steel bend wire,
which is guided through the diff-cases and runs in ballraced steel adaptors.
The wire is linked to the lower suspension arm, with a captured adjustable threaded
pivotball, for very precise and low friction operation and easy tuning.
Shocktower and bodymounts front
4.5mm thick carbon shocktower with 5 upper positioning holes for the shocks
and and 6 holes for roll-center positions. 1 centrally located adjustable bodymount
, and 2 forward mounted adjustable bodymounts, all with flip-tops.
Angled steering system / servo saver
The bell cranks are angled to reduce the angle of difference between the total
caster and steering plane. Therefore you will have less bump steer and a truer
steering Ackerman through the entire range of suspension
Ackerman plates
With the design of the steering bell cranks when changing the Ackerman you will
not need to adjust your steering tie rods. You simply will only need to adjust
your end points on your radio.
Rear suspension arms
Durable longer oversized lower suspension arms in strong composite nylon. On
the lower side the special downstops screws are mounted. The lower shock-mounting
pins are secured with a small grubscrew from the bottom.
Mud-guards
Superlight polycarbonate mud guards mount to the new lower suspension arms,
and will keep dirt away from your anti-roll bars transmission and wheels.
Rear uprights assembly
Composite uprights with 3 upper roll-center positions. Strong steel track-rods
with L/R threading and strong balljoints to pre-set camber. Spring steel wheel-axles
with large size bearings and larger inner ones with precision threaded aluminum
wheel-hubs with offset . Rubber dustcovers in the rear to protect the cvd system
and keep the lubrication inside. Flanged and serrated wheel nuts to guarantee
that you will not loose a wheel nut in a race.
Mud scrapers
Composite mud scrapers which mount to the new uprights, and will keep the inside
of your wheel cleaner in case of muddy conditons.
Rear anti-roll bar
The ballraced front anti-roll bar system, consist of a spring steel bend wire,
which is guided through the diff-cases and runs in ballraced steel adaptors.
The wire is linked to the lower suspension arm, with a captured adjustable threaded
pivotball, for very precise and low friction operation.
Shocktower rear
4.5mm thick carbon shocktower, integrated into the rear section for extra stiffness,
with 5 upper positioning holes for the shocks and 6 holes for roll-center positions.
Wingmount and bodymounts rear
Composite rear wing, with strong nylon adjustable rear bodymounts on wide body-support
bridge located far enough to the rear, to support the bodies in best way.
Captured pivot pins and balls and bolted hinge pins
All spring-steel hinge pins are either captured or bolted in place and made
in spring-steel quality. This insures your chances to finish an hour long main
event, while battling for the lead. This relieves stress on the hinge pin when
adjusting the kick up, or anti squat. Your pin is free to rotate to any angle
without binding.
Shockabsorbers big-bore 16mm
Hard Teflon coated threaded shockbodies with 4mm shock-rods. Hard anodized aluminium
screw on hard anodised shock-tops with Serpent laser engraving. Pre-load adjusters
with o-rings inside. Shocks use large diameter membrames and large diameter
o-rings and bushings to create a supersmooth and leak-proof package. Large diameter
pistons are held in place by a nut on the polished shock-rods tops. Open type
spring retainer to let dirt out easy. The shock-shafts are protected by rubber
boots.
RCM shock springs
Short type colorcoded shock springs are supplied for the 1st standard set-up
Springs are grinded flat top and bottom, and checked individually for tension
and length.
Compact geardifferentials
Very compact gear differentials with very smooth metal sintered gears, and steel
shaft. Perfect sealing case with special gasket and o-rings. Very light and
durable outdrive cups in spring-steel. Hardened spring-steel diff-coupler 13T
with connector running in 2 oversized bearings . Drive ratio 4.3:1. This drive
ratio will provide amazing acceleration combined with the low vehicle weight.
It is a sure win, to help improve fuel mileage
Front and rear cvd-sets
Both front and rear captured driveshafts are being used with CVD system. Durable
yet light spring steel engraved driveshafts with hard steel pins.
Spring steel transmission parts
The front and rear thin but strong spring steel cardan shafts connect the differentials
.
Throttle and brake lever ball cups
Helps provide consistent pulling on the brake lever or carburetor if you do
not have the linkage perfectly aligned.
Piston Braking system
Provides more stopping power than you could have ever imagined before with a
whole lot less servo power. Also is fully adjustable with 3 types of pistons,
solid, O ring type, spring type. In turn you can adjust your bias or braking
feel to your liking in more ways than ever before.
