Fenix Flexy Sexy E4RS4 & updated TC7.1 alloy chassis

Fenix have introduced their Flexy Sexy aluminium chassis for the Team Magic E4RS4 and also an updated main plate for the Team Associated TC7.1. Starting with the Team Magic chassis, it is 85mm wide and weighs in at 82g. Excessive machining in the middle section makes for optimised flex characteristics of the fully symmetrical chassis, making it ideal for all medium to high-bite conditions.

New from Fenix Racing, for the Associated F6, comes a full set of 7075 aluminium option parts. The new chassis weighs in at just 84 grams and sports some important features such as the ability to use straight or angled links and a more slim profile of the outer “wing” sections to further reducing scrubbing during cornering. One of the more interesting new parts is the caster adjuster, that allows you to change caster in a matter of second without having to find the right insert. To complete the set there is a 2mm thick 7075 motor pod.
