Stiffen Your Viper with the Serpent 5mm Aluminium Chassis

The Serpent SER904147 5mm Aluminium Chassis is a durable upgrade built specifically for the Viper 988E. Precision machined to reduce flex and improve tracking, it suits racers and experienced hobbyists looking for a firmer platform and more predictable handling.

Benefits of a 5mm Aluminium Plate

Made from high grade aluminium, the 5mm plate adds rigidity without excessive mass, trimming unwanted flex at high speed. The extra thickness stabilizes weight transfer and improves cornering consistency, which helps when setting up the 988E for competition.

Specifications

  • Material: Aluminium
  • Thickness: 5mm
  • Compatibility: Serpent Viper 988E

Will this chassis fit other Serpent models?

This plate is tailored to the Viper 988E mounting points and geometry. Other models may require trimming or alternative hardware to fit correctly.

Does the 5mm plate make the car noticeably heavier?

The aluminium adds some weight compared with thin composite chassis, but the gain in stiffness often improves lap times thanks to steadier handling.

Any recommended electronics to pair with this chassis?

Standard 1/10 touring car electronics fit the 988E layout. Choose compact servos and low-profile batteries to preserve ground clearance and balance.

Is installation difficult for a home mechanic?

Installation is straightforward with basic tools; expect to transfer hardware and check driveline alignment during reassembly.
