Features:

Chassis
Very narrow 3mm 7075T6 aluminium chassis, with machining on the upper face to
make it lighter in strategic locations and to control flex. Kick-up front for
proper landings. Angled side to increase cornering clearance, and secure and
easy mounting side guards with 5 screws. Countersunk holes, pockets to position
the suspension brackets. Grey anodized with Cobra Logo engraved. Overall the
Truggy is designed to keep the weight very central and near to the centerline
as possible, to create a great overall balance.

Side guards / battery trays
Durable shaped composite side guards / battery trays that follow the line of
the chassis, and mount with 5 screws each side. Front and sides high enough
to keep the dirt out. The guards/trays create a lot of stability. The batteries
are mounted in longitudinal fashion, keeping the weight very low in the car.
The battery trays feature hinged covers, to keep the batteries well in place,
but are easy to open for access.

Motormount:
The motor is placed in the most optimal position in the car, keeping motor-forces
and transmission parts / alignment in mind. Only one-screw is needed to secure
the BL motor, in the nicely designed durable machined aluminium motormount.
Space for additional motor-cooling available as needed. The space for the motor
allows mounting all popular buggy and (monster)truggy motors.

Composite chassis braces
Allows the chassis to flex which helps improve bump handling. Front and rear.

Front bumper
Nicely rounded front bumper, same as on the Cobra buggy, to protect the front
anti-roll bar, suspension brackets, and flows inline with kick-up chassis front
for safe landings.

Front suspension
Very long and durable composite lower wishbones, combined with upper spring-steel
trackrods. 2 lower shock-mount positions. Downstops can be used as needed. Pivotball
type anti-roll bar rods.

Front steering / servo saver / angled
Innovative angled front steering assembly to reduce the angle of difference
between the total caster and steering plane. Therefore you will have less bump
steer and a truer steering Ackermann through the entire range of suspension.

Adjustable spring loaded servo-saver system with interchangeable Ackermann
plates. With the design of the steering bell cranks when changing the Ackermann
you will not need to adjust your steering tie rods. You simply will only need
to adjust your end points on your radio.. Very easy to access and set-up.

The Inboard Bell crank keeps the lever and linkage inside the car. It will
aid in the prevention of damage to the steering system. Zero scrub radiuses
on steering knuckle, helps reduce the jacking effect created by your steering
knuckle offset. It provides a more direct fell while keeping the cars chassis
more level while turning.

The front roll center can be changed quickly by moving the steering knuckle
shims to their appropriate locations.

Topped of with a strong 5mm carbon fibre top-plate.

Front steering-block / c-hubs
Very durable front steeringblock / C-hub assembly .

Drive-shafts
Long and lightweight spring steel units with pressed in steel pins, laser-engraved.
Same length front and rear.

Wheel-axles / wheel-nut
Serpent spring steel threaded wheel-axles with lightweight grey anodised aluminium
wheel-nuts ( flanged and serrated) to keep the massive truggy wheels/tyres on
track.

Captured universal joints
The idea here was simple. Guarantees you will finish a race without loosing
a pin or set screw. All parts, axles and drive train components have capture
pins

Front shocktower
Light, strong and durable machined 5mm carbon fibre units with 5 positions for
shockangle.

Shock-set front and rear
16mm big bore shocks, with hard anodized precision threaded shock-bodies. Shockboots
in silicone rubber to keep the dirt out . Chromed shock-shafts for supersmooth
shockaction . The larger o rings provide less overall pressure and a better
seal without dragging on the shock shaft.

Suspension brackets alu
The hinge-pins / hingepin balls are captured in precision machined, special
shaped 7075 T6 aluminium, grey anodized with indicated type. They capture the
nylon roll-center inserts.

Anti-roll bar / anti-roll bar linkage with pivotball
The anti-roll bars front and rear are made of high quality special spring steel,
and are captured on the diff-cased in ballbearing for perfect guidance and control.

Receiver box / servo mount / speedo mount
Composite one piece radiobox to securely mount servo? s, speedo and receiver.
For optimum balance the light receiver fits the top-case easy, with a small
opening to allow cable to protrude. The speedo seats very low on a plate just
above the chassis, so short cables can be used to the motor. The servo is mounted
in a vertical fashion.

Central diff
Optimised central gear-diff with 50T super-hard spur-gear . Very small, compact
design to reduce rotating mass to the max.

Transmission shafts
Durable but light and thin Serpent spring steel, laser engraved shafts.

Front and rear diff
Optimised gear-diff with 50T superhard spur-gears . Very small, compact design
to reduce rotating mass to the max. Same version front and rear. Diff coupler
in spring steel seated in large bearings for durability.

Rear shocktower
Light, strong and durable machined 5mm carbon fibre unit with 5 positions for
shockangle.

Rear uprights
Durable composite rear uprights with 3 camber positions

Mudguards
In moist or wet dirt situations these mud guards reduce and dirt sticking to
the rear drive shafts and shocks. Follow line of wishbone perfectly.

Rubber boots for shafts
Helps to keep the dirt out and the lubrication in. Reduces wear.

Suspension brackets rear
Nicely machined 7075 T6 aluminium with eccentric inserts to change set-up.

Rear wing mount
The composite rear wing mount, allows to change the angle of the rear wing.

Rear wing
Two stage high down force wing, has two levels of angle, which also includes
2 fins. Helps improve down force and straight line capability

Bodymounts
Nylon bodymounts with wider seating for the body, securely fastened to the shocktowers.

Super Low profile Body
Improves appearance as well as keeps the profile low.

Decals
Serpent and Cobra-T logo decals in black-white print

Oils / grease
Kit includes high quality silicone oils for the diffs and shocks and a container
of grease.
