Serpent 600007 Cobra TE 1/8 4WD Nitro Buggy - Race Tunable Edition  [SER600007]

Cobra TE Trail and Track DNA

The Serpent Cobra TE 1/8 4WD Nitro Buggy channels experience from years of competition into a chassis package focused on handling and serviceability. At roughly 3300 g it keeps rotating mass low while providing a platform that is straightforward to tune for varying track conditions.

Precision Machining and Lightweight Layout

Central to the design is a 3 mm machined chassis anodised in titanium tone, featuring countersunk mountings and a laser Cobra marking. Its narrow footprint increases ground clearance and reduces drag so the buggy stays composed on rough, bumpy surfaces and through quick direction changes.

Balanced Suspension for Consistent Grip

Suspension architecture uses CNC-machined brackets and symmetric inner pivots to promote neutral handling across speed ranges. The inboard bell crank steering arm protects bodywork fitment and reduces components exposed to impacts, while zero scrub radius knuckles sharpen steering input and stability.

Effective Power Delivery

The drivetrain emphasises acceleration with a 4.3:1 overall ratio, lightened differentials and a reduced-mass centre spur. A 4-shoe centrifugal racing clutch lets drivers fine tune engagement for traction, and big bore 16 mm shocks with threaded bodies absorb landings and rough terrain efficiently.

Built to Withstand Race Use

Reliability features include captured ball cups, anti-roll bars and fibreglass braking discs. The fuel tank's splash basin and self-centering seal help keep the engine running cleanly during pit work, while a low-profile body and downforce wing keep aerodynamics tidy at speed.

For hobbyists who like to tweak setup between heats, the Cobra TE rewards attention to detail with components that respond predictably to changes in springs, oils and geometry.
