RC Atomic MRX 1:28 pan car

1:28 specialist manufacturer RC Atomic is kicking of 2024 with the release of its new MRX pan car series which makes use of “Link-less Rear Pod” design meaning the traditional side links are removed from the car.  The design sees a centre pivot and bearing-supported rear guide rail system introduced with the new system allowing driver to brake harder and accelerate earlier.  This offers greater stability and consistency when braking/accelerating and steering input overlap as the rear pod movement is independent from chassis roll.  This results in car being more consistent and more predictable to drive.  Moreover, you do not have to worry about breaking side links during a race.  One more benefit of Link-less system is you do not have to worry about the battery wire interfering with the side link and makes the car behave strangely.

Other New Features 
– Front Knuckle ball head position is 1.5mm pushed outward compared to MRZ SF or EX. Scrub radius is further decreased, and this will increase the corner speed and reduce the chance of traction rolls.
– Direct Drive Steering system: steering crank is removed to minimise play and slop from the system. You can feel the car steer more precise and react faster to your fingers.
– Caster angle adjustable: 0 or 2 degrees.
– New design battery mount which makes the change of batteries easier and does not need to remove the centre damper anymore.
– Stock car come with Brass chassis.
– Side wing can be added to the chassis plate to add stability (optional parts and assorted sizes of side wings will be available)
– Vertical side spring system conversion will be available as option.
– Rear Lexan body mount for touring bodies will be available too. (rear body post will not come out from side windows anymore)
– SF (simple front) and EX (double arm) suspension system will be available as option as well.
