Serpent have released the upgrade-set to convert your S120-L into the recently announced LT version.

Having brought you a sneak peek CAD image on Monday, today Serpent have released complete information and images of the S120 Link-Tube, the latest version of their 1/12 chassis. Optimised following a full season of testing and racing, the focus has been on the optimal weight distribution in the car with modern LiPo, motor and speedo. A symmetrical chassis design gives even flex while a new top deck and alu poles increases stiffness. The front end with many set-up options is continued, the strong rear end is now fitted with 7075 T6 anodised alu parts for the motor pod to increase durability even at hard crashes and S120-LT is fitted with super-light and strong aluminum rear shaft.

Serpent have announced details on the new version of their 1/12 scale platform, the S120. The S120-Link Tube version chassis is now fully developed for LiPo use and combines the Links with the Tube system. This creates a very agile, fast and easy to set-up racing chassis. All carbon parts are new, a new top-deck is added, but front and rear pod, alu shaft and main shock remain the same as before. We are also told that a conversion set for S120-L to LT will be offered too. We can expect more info later in the week, while the kits should be ready to ship from the 1st week of October.

New for the Serpent Cobra 811 Buggy & Truggy is this anti-roll bar shaft. Precision machined from spring steel, it fits in the ball-raced anti-roll bar holders of the Cobra buggy (front and rear) and Truggy (rear). The straight anti-roll bar wires, which are sold separately, are fitted in the slots in the shaft of the aluminium holders and then fastened with set screws. This system allows the mounting of other thicknesses of anti-roll bar wires in very little time. The straight wires are available 1.8mm, 2.0mm, 2.1mm, 2.3mm, 2.5mm and 2.7mm versions.
Serpent have released some new items for their 411 platform, including some additional shock springs to extend the already large range available for the Serpent RCCX shock absorbers. The new springs come in grey (2.6/14.8), black (2.9/16.5) and green (3.5/19.9). To use in combination with a spool in the front there are some new very light & strong delrin driveshaft adapters. Not as durable as the regular spring steel ones, but they do offer super smooth action.
Now available from Serpent is the complete Centax clutch-set for 1/10 scale 733. Supplied with an aluminium clutch bell, XP clutch shoe, hard spring and machined flyweights. The result is a lighter clutch with more punch.
