The Rockstarter Scale Crawler Chassis Kit is a masterpiece designed for the most discerning crawler enthusiasts. With its precision machined parts, this chassis oozes high-quality workmanship that transcends beyond its price point, making it an exceptional choice for any scale modeler’s project.
Upon picking up the Rockstarter, one immediately senses its substantial build quality; the chassis alone weighs over 2kg without including wheels, body, motor, or battery. This heaviness is a testament to its robust construction and the attention to detail in every aspect of its design. The single speed transmission housed in a cast metal housing delivers power efficiently from the transfer case to the cast metal axles, with realistic half-pumpkin covers on the locked differentials, all driven by machined billet aluminum drive shafts and universal joints.
The chassis’s ladder frame structure is not only aesthetically pleasing but also serves as a solid base for the 4-link rear suspension and 3-link front suspension, featuring pan hard bars and shock hoops that are expertly crafted to enhance its scale appearance. The transfer case, with cast metal exterior and heavy-duty 32P gears, ensures durability and performance on challenging crawler courses.
A plethora of thoughtful design features contribute to the Rockstarter’s authentic look and feel. For instance, the servo is mounted vertically on the chassis to keep it out of sight beneath the body or the receiver box cleverly mimics a fuel tank, adding to its scale authenticity. When paired with a high-quality 4WD body, this chassis becomes a super realistic representation that any modeller would be proud to display.
Regardless of the build one chooses to construct with the Rockstarter Scale Crawler Chassis Kit, it guarantees an unparalleled off-road experience within its class. The combination of precision craftsmanship and robust engineering ensures longevity and performance on challenging terrains, making it a standout choice in the world of scale crawlers.
