Sideguards

Strong composite sideguards keep most of the dirt out and offer good protection for the valuable gear inside. The sideguards also double act as side stiffners and influence the flex of the chassis overall.

Bumper

Aligned with chassis kikc-up for precise landings and to protect front suspension holde rand anti-roll bar.

Chassis stiffners

Composite stiffner front and rear, to give extra stiffness, but still allow some flex as needed for extra traction.#

Central radio / servo mount

Composite compact composite radiobox which offers good space for the steering and throttle,-brake servo, the receiver and the receiver battery. The whole assembly including linkages can be taken off easily and fast in one go, when cleaning the car, or doing maintenance.

Central low dual brake system

The Cobra features a low positioned dual brake system with lightweight glass-fibre disks with springloaded race-brake pads. Very effective stopping power.

Engine

Serpent selected the Picco pullstart engine for the Cobra buggy. The outstanding quality level, high performance, combined with easy starting and long lasting runtime, makes this engine the ideal partner to start racing.

The engine is mounted securely on machined aluminium engine mounts.

Polished tuned pipe system

The DragonRC polished inline tuned pipe system works really well with the Picco engine and produces a sharp and powerfull tune. Fire it up !

Clutch

The famous Serpent offroad clutch in 3 shoe version has the right setting for smooth performance, but when you hit the throttle hard it will accelerate the Cobra like crazy.
