The Serpent SER904229 aluminium chassis is supplied as an aftermarket replacement specifically for the Viper 990e R platform (SER904008). It acts as the core structural plate and is chosen where aluminium rigidity and repeatable mounting points are required for setup and tuning.
Targeted at 1/10 electric touring hobby builds, the chassis delivers predictable rigidity and reliable component placement. Consistent mounting lets you make repeatable suspension and weight distribution adjustments without changing other factory parts.
To install, follow normal 1/10 touring car practice: remove the current chassis plate, move any standoffs and hardware needed, then reattach electronics and drivetrain items to the matching mounting positions. Use appropriately sized screws and verify clearance for motor, ESC, and servo before final tightening.
For setup purposes, the aluminium plate alters torsional stiffness relative to plastic or composite options, so expect shifts in traction and steering that are addressable through damper tuning, anti-roll changes, and tyre selection. Regularly check mounting points and screw seats for signs of wear to retain stable behaviour.
Fit this aluminium chassis when you need a stable, durable base for methodical setup and repeatable handling adjustments on the Viper 990e R platform.
