Serpent F190: Formula 1 Lines and RC Accuracy
The Serpent F190 brings classic Formula 1 aesthetics to the hobby grade RC scene, combining period styling with modern engineering for an engaging track experience. Built with attention to detail and performance, the F190 targets drivers who value authentic handling and setup flexibility.
Carbon Chassis and F1 Inspired Bodywork
The F190 uses a lightweight carbon fiber main chassis paired with 7075-T6 aluminium bulkheads to create a rigid but responsive platform. Its bodywork follows early 2000s F1 geometry to reduce drag and improve stability at speed, helping the car stay composed through high speed sections and tight chicanes.
Durable Drivetrain and Precision Differentials
Power is managed through a drivetrain built with spring steel components and 7075-T6 aluminium parts for reliable torque transfer. The 4WD layout gives consistent traction, while the HTD differentials are tuned to balance drive to the rear wheels for predictable exits out of corners.
Tuned Suspension for Sharp Cornering
Handling is refined via a front spool and oil-filled coilover shocks that deliver stable weight transfer and cornering control. With multiple spring and piston options, you can dial in suspension response to suit tight technical tracks or faster layouts.
Scale Wheels and Closed-Cell Foam Tyres
The model includes true-to-scale F1 wheels matched to closed-cell foam tyres that offer consistent grip and long life. This tyre and wheel combination reproduces the on-track feel of single-seater machines while remaining durable for frequent running.
Electronics Space and Adjustable Motor Mount
The chassis accommodates large battery packs and a variety of brushless motor and ESC choices, giving room for high-capacity setups. A 7075-T6 aluminium motor mount with a slide mechanism makes gear mesh adjustments straightforward during maintenance or upgrades.
Specifications
