Adapting the Medius Serpent 4X to front-wheel drive

The Arrowmax AM-920005 kit provides parts to adapt the Medius Serpent 4X chassis into a front-wheel drive configuration. Below is guidance on fitment, workshop tips, and how the conversion influences handling and setup choices.

Fitment advice: the conversion is built for the Medius Serpent 4X series; confirm your chassis stamping and mounting positions before you start. This overview does not list every accessory you might need and does not assume specific motors, ESCs, or servos beyond those changes implied by a FWD layout.

Workshop notes: the kit includes conversion hardware to change drivetrain orientation and supply new mounting interfaces for an FWD arrangement. Familiarity with basic RC assembly and drivetrain alignment is helpful when installing these parts. Always check clearances for steering and suspension links and torque fasteners to spec.

Setup impact: switching to front-wheel drive shifts traction balance and steering response; you will likely alter spring rates, ride height and toe/camber settings to achieve predictable handling. Use on-track testing to progressively refine balance between understeer and drive traction.

This conversion kit gives enthusiasts a chassis-level route to experiment with FWD behaviour on the Medius Serpent 4X; plan for trial fitting and setup changes before serious running.

Many builds will fit using the supplied interfaces, but some chassis versions may require minor trimming or different fastener positions; inspect the chassis before committing to the installation.
The conversion can change motor and ESC placement; you may need alternate mounts or different cable routing for tidy installation and to preserve weight distribution.
FWD tends to put more steering load on the driven wheels, altering corner entry and mid-corner traction; expect adjustments to rear traction and steering geometry to balance the car.
Mock up the drivetrain early, check alignment at full travel, and label small parts during disassembly to streamline reassembly and setup checks.
