MST FS-01D Front Motor Chassis Kit

Counter Steer Ready FS CS Pulley Set with Ratio (1.54/1.66/1.82)

Max Speed Technology has officially announced the silver FS-01D front motor chassis for release at the end of February 2012. The new MST FS-01D front motor chassis will now feature silver carbon graphite. The new silver surface carbon material provides desirable flex characteristics and styling. This chassis will be in high demand, so pre-orders are recommended if you want one. The FS-01D now offers the user more options when it comes to mechanical chassis traction. Several additional silver carbon components are integrated for chassis rigidity adjustment. The new FS-01D silver chassis has been designed with high traction in mind. Manufactured to approximately 2.0mm with several cut-outs to promote greater flex characteristics. The most noticeable being the side wings and the W shaped piece in front of the rear tensioner. These pieces can be adjusted by screws to create more or less chassis flex. Which is a benefit for the more technical RC Drifters out there.

Comes with an upgraded Ver2.0 Graphite Parts Set. As you can see from the drawings below, MST has decided to reintegrate the Side  Front Lower Deck Brace into the Main Lower Deck. This allows the Main Lower Deck to have a narrower profile and a new Servo Position option to clear the servo from the wheels which was reported to have clearance issues in the first iteration of the chassis. The Front and Rear Damper Stays have also been slightly altered to add more precise damper mounting options.

Limited Time and Stock Combo!

Novak "Drift Spec" Brushless ESC/Drift Spec Brushless Motor Combo

Drift Spec On-Board Settings for Precise Control:

• Drag Brake – Allows fine-tuning of the ESC’s auto/coast brake strength.
• Dead Band – Adjusts the neutral point sensitivity and allows for fine-tuning the throttle input sensitivity.
• Drive Frequency – Allows adjustment of the drive frequency for the perfect throttle response and feel. Adjustable from ultra smooth to aggressive.
• Minimum Drive – Provides adjustability of the drive response from mild to aggressive.
• Reverse – Allows the reverse to be toggled on or off

The Novak Drift Spec ESC is Novak’s smallest and lightest drifting controller and packs in high-end features to keep you on course:

• NovaBrakes™ – Novak’s exclusive braking system for responsive and extremely consistent brakes.
• Fan/Accessory Output & Heavy-Duty BEC – Ready to handle upgraded servos, and allows easy plug in of accessory lights or a cooling fan.
• Sealed Case & Aluminum Heat Sink – Maintains cool operation and keeps out dust and debris.
• Thermal Protection – Keeps tabs on its core operating temperature and will back down the power to prevent the ESC from overheating.
• On-Board Temperature Diagnostics – With a quick tap of the One-Touch™ button, multi-colored LEDs will indicate how hot the ESC is for instant temperature information.
• Motor Lock-Up Protection – If your drive train or motor becomes bound up or jammed, the ESC will detect this and cut the power to prevent damage.

Rebuildable Sensor-Based Motor 
The motor included in the Drift Spec System is a 13.5-turn, sensor-based, rebuildable brushless motor. Sensor-based motors and ESCs offer unmatched throttle response, and have no hesitation off the line— perfect for maintaining precise control and wheel speed while maintaining incredible response. Drivers currently running a brush or sensorless drift motor set-up will be amazed with the amount of control and the responsiveness of Novak’s pure sensor system. Like all Novak brushless motors, the Drift Spec motor has a rebuildable design, and customers can replace, customize, and upgrade the rotor, bearings, and sleeve color. Each motor is also factory-wired with heavy-duty, 14-gauge silicone wire and heavy-duty, gold-plated bullet plugs.
