TEAM XRAY T4’20 – Alu Edition #300027

Overview

• New centralized drivetrain and long arm suspension platform

      Drivetrain

• New motor/layshaft position improves weight transfer and chassis balance
• Central layshaft positioned midway between front and rear differentials using new equal length Kevlar reinforced front and rear drive belts for more consistent on-power/off-power balance
• Super narrow top shaft utilizes new 20T pulleys and pressed-in ball bearings to minimize space requirements

     Suspension

• New 7mm longer front and rear suspension arms and narrow suspension holders improve traction and corner speed
• Long suspension arms feature two shock mounting locations; the lower position combined with ULP shock towers to eliminate chassis roll and improve stability in high traction conditions
• Super low anti-roll bar mounts to lower the vehicle CG
• Redesigned anti-roll bar system features new front bars, smaller bushings and shorter ball joints designed for the new low CG mounting locations

      Chassis

• New chassis plate features multiple suspension mounting provisions for long and short arm configurations and new bulkhead positions
• Symmetrical top deck shape provides clearance around new central drivetrain pieces while maintaining even side to side chassis flex characteristics
• Central motor mount positioned directly on chassis centerline for consistent chassis flex
• Black anodized lower bulkheads are moved 1mm inward to increase clearance for new long arm suspension geometry
• Narrowed upper clamps to match lower bulkheads and integrate with new shock towers
• Lighter graphite floating servo holder and taller servo posts redesigned to work with new suspension and driveline geometry
