CC-02 Chassis - Off Road, Evolved
Designed for a wide range of off-road scenes including rocky terrain, the CC-02 chassis' ladder frame is inspired by full-size vehicles and is the base for its superior durability. A 4WD setup employs the motor longitudinally behind the front axle with separated gearbox and transfer case, and propeller shafts transmitting power to the differential gears front and rear. Four-link rigid suspension is employed front and rear, with CVA oil dampers for all-encompassing control, even on tricky rock sections. This model comes with matte plated seven-spoke wheels and grippy block pattern tires.

- The ladder frame is modeled upon those employed by full-size cars, and offers excellent rigidity on this 1/10 scale vehicle.


- Front and rear axle housings are connected to four links arms each, which combine with oil dampers for superlative cushioning.


- Changing gear layout and using separately-sold pinions of nine other sizes allows a range of twenty gear ratios between 11.09 and 29.28:1.


- Left: Metal chassis frame sections facilitate exemplary durability, while CVA oil damper ensure that you get the maximum off-road performance.

- Right: Axle housings are molded in reinforced plastic, and house 3-bevel differentials. They can be locked when running on lower-grip surfaces.
