Heritage Edition Viper 977 WC by Serpent

The Serpent Viper 977 WC Limited Edition honours Tadahiko Sahashi's TQ and World Championship wins in Japan during the 2013-2014 season. This limited run fits many of the optional parts that formed Sahashi's race-winning layout, allowing hobbyists to mirror a proven competition rig.

7075 Aluminum Chassis Built for Consistency

The heart of the package is a 5mm 7075 aluminum chassis produced with precision CNC machining to deliver consistent flex and track feel. The result is predictable handling at speed and the distinctive engraved Viper 977 WC badge that marks its limited status.

Sophisticated Suspension and Steering Setup

Independent double wishbones and RCM shock absorbers provide accurate feedback through cornering. Adjustable camber, caster and toe permit detailed corner balancing, while selectable Ackermann settings from the steering block let you refine turn-in and mid-corner behaviour.

Adjustable Mass and Drive Efficiency

Integrated brass weight positions in the chassis slider give a simple way to alter front-rear bias and influence grip. The lightweight 2-speed SL8 gearbox and anodized aluminium parts reduce rotational inertia for crisper acceleration and better throttle response.

For competitive drivers who want a highly adjustable and race-proven platform, the Serpent Viper 977 WC Limited Edition offers a solid foundation and parts inspired by a world championship win.

This model is intended for nitro use typical of 1/8 on-road cars. Use quality nitro fuel compatible with your chosen engine and tune as required for track conditions.
Soft to medium compound tyres suited to your track surface and ambient temperature usually give the best grip. Many racers choose foam or rubber tyres tuned to local asphalt for consistent lap times.
The kit includes a 2-speed SL8 gearbox designed for this chassis. Some components may be interchangeable with aftermarket 1/8 parts, but check fitment and alignment before swapping gears or internals.
Inspect shocks, drivetrain and engine mounting between heats. Clean debris, check screws and re-evaluate balance and setup after each run to maintain consistent performance.
Standard sized servos will fit, but a high-speed, high-torque radio servo is recommended for precise steering control under race loads.
