A strong chassis andsmartlayoutis important
foranyracingmaching, and it's no different with 1/8 scale
rallycross buggies. The Pulse,withitshigh performance design, takes
in all the latest racing refinements from the fastest buggies on
the track and combines them in a fast and durable package! Check
out the top features of the chassis and layout:
- 3mm chassis made from 6061 gunmetal anodized aluminium, deep countersunk screws and sturdy dirt guards
- 6061 aluminium radio tray, middle deck, and front deck for light weight and great looks
- Composite chasis braces connect to radio tray to reduce weight and eliminate flex from the suspension
- Hex hardware throughout for easy rebuilds and less hassle than normal Philips head screws
- Low centre of gravity design for increased confidence in the bumps and better handling in the turns
- Large flywheel opening allows rocks to exit chassis and extra-easy starting with any off-road type starter box
- Sealed & padded battery & receiver box with sealed radio switch
A strong suspension design that is easy to
adjust and control is key to a good racing machine, no matter what
size it is or what type of racing you're doing. Our designers
looked at all the top-performing cars out there and combined the
best suspension designs into one ultra-competitive package. The
Pulse gives you full adjustability: anti-dive, anti-squat, camber,
caster, droop, Ackerman, roll centre, camber link position, shock
position and wheelbase.
- Proven race geometry with championship-inspired design. The zero kingpin 'inverse angle block' design is a definite winner, and out on the track it will give you the confidence you desire as you go head to head against the club pros!
- Extra-strong race-engineered suspension arms are designed with the optimal balance of strength and flex to tackle the most demanding racing tracks and racing drivers!
- The front shock tower is 7075 aluminium for extra durability and increased reliability. The rear shock tower is 6061 aluminium, anodized the same cool gunmetal grey.
- 15mm dia large bore shocks handle the bumps and jumps, soaking up everything you throw the Pulse at. With a 6061 aluminium body, o-ring seals and thick shock shafts you know your tyres will be stuck to the ground when you need traction and control.
- Strong steel turnbuckles with chunky gripping points for easy adjustment of camber and front toe.
- Extreme steering angle for tons of steering - there's no other buggy with as much steering angle!
- Extra-strong 6061 aluminium steering link with 3 adjustment holes gives you confidence that you won't lose control, and the extra adjustments let you fine-tune the Pulse buggy to your driving style.
- You also get an integrated servo saver with an easy to reach knurled aluminium adjustment nut.
- High torque, powerful metal gear servo factory-fitted for increased reliability when you need it most.
- Swaybars fitted for zero chassis roll in tight turns: 2.5mm front, 3mm rear
- No e-clips anywhere! The Pulse uses strong steel hex-head screws with locknuts to secure the suspension in place.
