The Serpent F190 channels the silhouette of early 2000s single seaters and pairs it with today’s RC component standards to give a realistic driving feel. Its balance of lightweight construction and serviceable parts makes it a strong choice for hobbyists who like to tune and refine their cars.
A carbon main plate works with 7075-T6 aluminium bulkheads to create a stiff centre section that improves response. The streamlined bodywork is sculpted to manage airflow and reduce lift so the car stays planted through fast corners.
Key drivetrain parts are made from spring steel and 7075-T6 aluminium to withstand track use while maintaining efficient power delivery. The 4WD layout is coupled with HTD differentials to fine tune traction bias for cleaner corner exits.
Stability comes from a solid front spool arrangement and oil filled coilover dampers that you can tune with different springs and pistons. This lets you adjust roll and pitch behaviour for various circuit surfaces.
The kit includes scale F1 wheels fitted with closed-cell foam tyres that keep consistent grip across runs. These tyres are durable and suited to high speed cornering demands typical of single seater replicas.
The layout allows room for larger battery packs and a range of brushless motors and ESCs, with a sliding 7075-T6 motor mount that helps achieve correct pinion to spur mesh without complicated shims.
Built for scale authenticity and tunability, the Serpent F190 suits hobbyists who enjoy setting up their machines for differing track conditions and extracting consistent lap times.
