Roche Rapide P10W 235mm 1/10th scale pan car kit
Roche have introduced their Rapide P10W 235mm 1/10th scale pan car kit. Building on the 200mm variant the car makes use of a 3mm high-grade carbon fibre main chassis plate and lower pod plate, and it allows for extensive wheelbase settings with ±2mm being achievable using the front lower alloy suspension block and additional ±1.5mm are available using the front graph suspension plate. Other features include a ball-raced rack-type steering system, quick adjust Ackermann, fully adjustable Xenon-made front suspension, a big bore centre and lightweight micro side dampers as well as a floating steering servo mount for low-profile and mini-size servos. The chassis itself allows for a range of battery configurations including inline standard and shorty packs as well as transversally mounted shorties. The link-type kit furthermore comes with a range of options such as a differential thrust race, 64 pitch 93T Xenon Racing main gear as well as a 30mm cooling fan mount and low-friction pivot balls and ball studs.
