Serpent S400





Bought this kit in HK during the past Chinese new year.
Just built and test run for couple of weekends - material is solid but the chassis is not very flat compared to my other graphite chassis. Having said that, the control and ride quality seems unaffected ...
Tested run the chassis with 5cell (SHO 4200EU cells), VFS1 and Orion V2 8x1 motor, almost original setting from the box with front solid spool and mid lock shaft. In hot day, running Sorex 40R + Hara 2.0 hard insert will give the car good control without the feeling of understeering. Not bad !

I need to keep running these old motors for some more time in order to clean up the inventory - I imagine it will be harder and harder to find these brushes in the future
