The CRX 2.1 KIT

. Compared to the CRX 2, this new version includes new drive shafts that are much more robust than previous models and specific running boards depending on the body style you choose. 

The CRX 2 in a nutshell:

Following the success of the first version of the CRX, we wanted to develop a new chassis that would be even more efficient and just as realistic. Drawing on our experience in the scale modeling field, we designed a modern machine that meets the expectations of the most demanding modelers. The CRX 2 is now a refined and recognized platform. 

The axles are stylish and realistic. The transmission features an anti-torque twist function. To optimize the steering angle, we offer steering knuckles with a 0° Ackerman angle (the wheels remain parallel when turning). 

The CRX 2 is equipped with aluminum shock absorbers with internal springs. These provide a high level of realism and, more importantly, excellent off-road performance. Depending on the spring position, a droop or semi-droop setting can be achieved. The vehicle's low center of gravity improves traction while allowing the wheels to drop down to find the necessary grip and traction.

It is possible to add a PANHARD bar to the rocket carriers if your custom setup requires it.

By changing the size of the connecting rods (see options) and the anchorages on the chassis, it is possible to vary the wheelbase of the chassis. 

Adjustable wheelbase

Thanks to its adjustable wheelbase, it is possible to adapt a large number of body styles to the CRX2

Multi-position battery holder

It is possible to choose different battery positions depending on the desired performance. The system also allows the use of different battery formats.

ACKERMANN 0°

The new steering knuckles and CVD universal joints allow for a 0° Ackerman angle. When cornering, the wheels remain parallel, which improves the steering angle.

Anti-Torque Twist System

To prevent torque twist (wheel lift during acceleration), the new transmission allows the central driveshafts to rotate in the opposite direction. The CRX2 can therefore handle with significantly greater stability and efficiency.

Tires, "Climber" 106/36

This tire, designed and manufactured by Hobbytech, ensures perfect traction for your scale model. This tire is a hit with hobbyists! It's compatible with the TRX4. It comes with a foam insert and mounts on 1.9" rims.

Dimensions

Diameter: 106 mm Width: 36 mm

Complete Wolf Type 90mm shock absorbers

Adjusting the "Wolf" shock absorbers for the CRX2:

Recommended assembly = semi-droop: small flexible spring at the bottom and medium-sized flexible spring at the top.

"Scale" type realism assembly = droop adjustment: medium-sized flexible spring at the bottom and small flexible spring at the top.

Lubrication = filling a part of the body with very fluid silicone oil (100 cps for example)
