Chassis Focus – Bruno Coelho

Chassis: Xray XB2D ’19

ESC: Hobbywing Xr10 Pro
Batteries: Sunpadow 4500mAh
Radio/Servo: Sanwa/Savox

Remarks – Xray top driver Bruno Coelho is attending EOS Round 5 here in Andernach running the Dirt version of the Slovakian XB2 buggy. This example was specifically prepared for the wet conditions encountered in the early stages of the race, and features a plastic rear shock tower to increase traction. Bruno is also using the higher gearbox that brings the motor further towards the rear. In addition, he chose an 8.5T motor and a milder speedo setup to better suit the traction conditions. The chassis is covered in a soon to be released chassis tape, very useful on astro as it prevents bits of synthetic grass from sticking to the hot chassis.
