BZ2017 Carbon Chassis 98mm WB(RC Atomic)

Original spare part of the main chassis, made of carbon fiber, for the wheelbase of 98mm, suitable for the Atomic BZ2017 model.

This chassis is exactly the same as the original, included in the BZ17 kit.

¿What are the characteristics of this chassis included in the BZ2017 kit?

The main chassis of the BZ17 is made of carbon fiber. It is very light and at the same time very resistant. The design of this chassis is slightly different from that of its predecessor. In the current version the center of gravity of the set has been lowered even more, since it has some recesses that the previous version did not have.

This chassis model allows us to mount bodies of 98mm of battle (distance between axes).

¿When should we replace the main chassis of the BZ17?

In the adjustment work (set up) of our car we must always check the good condition of all its components. The main chassis should be flat, should not have unwanted vices or twists, and of course, should be complete. the carbon fiber has good torsion but once the maximum point of torsion is exceeded, it breaks. Lateral impacts can also damage the chassis.

Therefore, if we observe any deficiency in the chassis it is best to replace it with a new one. We can waste our time reviewing the set-up, working on suspensions, transmission, etc. and being, the origin of the problems, the deformed chassis.

On the other hand, another cause of the change of chassis can be, or that we prefer a chassis somewhat faster than the original, so we will mount the version in aluminum (reference BZ17-UP05). If we want to fit shorter chassis between our axles in our chassis, we will also have to change the main chassis model. Carried out in carbon fiber, you will find both the 94mm wheelbase chassis, together with the other parts needed for the conversion (ref BZ17-CB001-94), as well as the conversion kit 90mm, which includes the carbon chassis for that measurement (ref BZ17-CB001-90).
