Stiffer Chassis with ROCHE Graphite Plate

Hobbyists aiming for improved steering precision will find the ROCHE 220226 Rapide P10W EVO2 Graphite Upper Deck a practical upgrade. Built from resilient graphite, the top plate raises chassis rigidity on the Rapide P10W EVO2 without adding unnecessary mass.

Why Graphite Helps Cornering

Graphite delivers strong rigidity per weight, which reduces flex that can blur front-end feedback. That clarity helps drivers place inputs more accurately and tune settings for faster laps.

Quick Fit and Setup Tips

The deck is made to align with Rapide P10W EVO2 mounting points for a straightforward swap. After fitting, recheck suspension geometry and shock tuning to match the firmer chassis feel.

Will this upper deck work with foam or carpet tracks?

Yes, the added stiffness benefits both foam and carpet surfaces by reducing unpredictable chassis flex, but you may need different shock valving for each surface.

Can I use the stock screws and hardware?

Stock hardware typically fits, though upgrading to lightweight alloy screws can improve durability and reduce weight at the same time.

Does the graphite plate affect radio gear placement?

The plate keeps the original chassis layout, so radio and receiver placement should remain unchanged. Verify clearance for large servos or battery straps during installation.

How durable is graphite in collisions?

Graphite is strong for racing loads but can chip under heavy impact. Inspect after any crash and replace if you see structural damage.
