With upgraded features like a lightweight chassis, balanced drivetrain, and precision-tuned suspension, the RS2.0 makes it easier than ever to dominate the track and grow your skills.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the RS2.0\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eChassis\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Yokomo Rookie Speed RS2.0 1\/10 On-Road Competition Electric Touring Car Kit is a perfect entry-level choice for aspiring racers, featuring a high-performance yet budget-friendly design. Its chassis, crafted from durable resin for both the main plate and upper deck, provides a balanced and smooth ride with strong ground contact, ensuring consistent traction. The use of resin also helps to keep the kit lightweight, allowing for better handling and control. The chassis includes a robust aluminum motor mount, designed to accommodate both brushed and brushless motors, giving it excellent heat dissipation and durability. Additionally, the battery holder is versatile enough to fit various battery types, from round Sub-C 6-cell packs to modern LiPo batteries, ensuring flexibility in power source options. For added protection, a large urethane bumper is integrated into the front to shield the vehicle during crashes, maintaining the kit's longevity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDrivetrain\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe drivetrain of the RS2.0 is finely tuned for balanced performance, thanks to its two-belt system featuring equal-length front and rear belts. This setup creates a stable, responsive driving experience with minimal disturbances during throttle inputs, resulting in smoother cornering. Both the front and rear drives utilize gear differentials, with the rear incorporating an oil-filled, sealed differential case. This allows for the tuning of driving characteristics by adjusting the oil viscosity, granting racers the ability to optimize handling for specific track conditions. Universal drive shafts ensure consistent drive efficiency, even when the suspension is engaged or steering at sharp angles, making the RS2.0 remarkably easy to control, even for novice drivers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSuspension \u0026amp; Shocks\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe shocks and suspension system of the RS2.0 is designed to elevate handling performance. The inclusion of short oil-filled shocks, combined with lower shock towers, drastically reduces the vehicle's center of gravity, leading to enhanced stability and improved maneuverability. These shorter shocks provide precise control, and their compatibility with competition-level springs opens up a wide range of tuning possibilities. The double-wishbone suspension on both the front and rear absorbs road surface impacts, delivering a smooth, composed ride. The turnbuckle upper arms and tie rods make it easy to adjust camber and toe-in, offering fine-tuning capabilities for competitive racing. This combination of high-end shock and suspension components ensures the RS2.0 is capable of delivering a competitive edge on the track, with plenty of upgrade potential as skills improve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"product-page-features\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUpdated Shorter shocks and shock towers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight and durable molded resin chassis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEqual length front and rear belts ensure balanced feel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront and rear gear differentials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUniversal drive shafts maintain efficiency during suspension movement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDouble wishbone suspension provides a smooth, stable ride.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjustable turnbuckles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUpgradeable with many already available hop-ups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAluminum motor mount supports both brushed and brushless motors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBattery holder fits both sub-C 6-cell and LiPo batteries.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_description-right\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIncludes:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(1) Rookie Speed RS2.0 Touring Car Kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eNeeded To Complete:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(1) 2-Channel Radio System\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(1) Low-Profile Steering Servo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(1) 2S LiPo battery and Compatible battery charger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cchrome_annotation role=\"link\"\u003e(1) 1\/10 540\u003c\/chrome_annotation\u003e Motor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(1) 1\/10 ESC (Electronic Speed Control)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWheels and Tires\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody and Polycarbonate Paint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTools for assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"3.
