Area RC DBXL double arm steering system

Area RC DBXL double arm steering system

Made for Losi’s DBXL large-scale buggy is this double arm aluminium steering set from Area RC. The set includes new inner aluminium steering bellcranks with the servo saver side offering a dual arm setup for the steering servo links meaning the steering assembly is actuated by two and not just one steering link, which is meant to make for a more precise and more reliable steering action. At the same time the dual links on the servo arm will lower the stress on the servo resulting in improved durability of the highly stressed part. The set is available in red, black and silver colour and also includes a reinforced servo saver spring and a ball-raced aluminium steering link.
