Built for varied off-road conditions, the Serpent 600038 Cobra MT-e RTR 1/8 Monster Truck delivers dependable performance and a solid platform for upgrades. It pairs a compact but rigid chassis with electronics suited to aggressive runs, making it a practical pick for hobbyists wanting durable 1/8 scale fun.
The truck is driven by a DragonRC 1940kV brushless motor and a waterproof 150A DragonRC ESC, providing consistent throttle response in muddy or dusty conditions. The narrow 3mm 7075T6 aluminium chassis provides a light base that helps keep the centre of gravity manageable for better control.
Design highlights include a kick-up nose to soften landings and angled side sections to improve wheel clearance in corners. Composite side guards double as secure battery trays, while long composite arms and adjustable shock mounts work with big bore oil-filled shocks to smooth rough runs.
Steering setup is engineered to reduce bump steer and allow fine-tuning via adjustable servo-saver and Ackermann plates. The drivetrain uses a central gear diff and spring steel parts to reduce rotating mass and maintain steady power delivery through corners.
Whether you plan to bash locally or refine setup for timed runs, the Serpent 600038 Cobra MT-e RTR 1/8 Monster Truck offers a well-balanced platform that accepts common performance upgrades.
