Serpent: X20 – 1/10 Electric Touring Car

08 Nov 2019

Serpent: X20 1/10 Electric Touring Car

Serpent has finally released the new X20, based on Project 4X touring Car  the result of utilizing past years design of the Eryx and 4x 1/10 touring car (2016-2017 IFMAR World Championship 3rd place, 2016 EFRA EC A-main finalist and 2017 Multiple ETS A-main finalist).

The chassis  of the X20 is based on the popular Medius mid motor design, using a light weight and strong 1 piece motor mount concept, without any interference between the front and rear chassis flex while still allowing center flex adjustability.

The advantage for this style of design is to allow maximum flex capabilities without impacting the drivetrain, meaning smoother power delivery, more consistency and less chance of stripping spurs.

Using the last 4 years of development this touring car keeps the successful 4X proven pivot ball style setup allowing for easy and fast adjustments to camber, toe, track width etc. A new 2 point steering crank system has been implemented for more ackerman adjustment, this coupled with 4X geometry guarantees race success!

Designers introduced a new suspension arm design, allowing the ability to adjust arm flex! Multiple styles of carbon and other materials will be available as optional items to fine tune X20’s grip and feel for whichever track you are on.

Understanding the Eryx’s sway bar system then combining with 4X concepts, the all new X20 Low Centre of Gravity (LCG) Anti-roll bar system is able to lower the sway bar point on the bulkhead without limiting the leverage point by connecting to the upper arm. A smart system which achieves the best of being LCG while retaining optimal performance.

The X20 Touring car features a more traditional approach to the shock absorbers in comparison to the 4X, making it more user friendly with less complication. Designers have focused on producing the highest quality components to ensure the best fitment.

The drivetrain is efficient and as light weight as possible for maximum durability, 7075 T6 Aluminium rear CVD’s and a Chatter free DJC system up front from Serpent spring Steel.
