Big Block Motor
The Axial 4.6
big block comes with modern engine technology for maximum torque and
power. The Aluminium tuned pipe has a strong sound and is perfectly
matched with the Axial 4.6 engine.
Transmission
Hardened bevel gears are for a long life under the hardest conditions.
The Central differential with spur gear enclosed to prevent rocks and
other items from causing damage. The front and rear differential is
rubber mounted, in order to protect the gears against vibrations and
impact.
Handling
The Mantis TXS chassis was designed for an ultra low center of gravity, to be lightweight and have maximum suspension travel. The result is a very easy handling chassis right out of the box and with all the options for setup you can fine tune it to your driving style and track conditions. Long oil-filled 14mm piston aluminum shocks with 3.5mm shafts and super strong composite suspension arms let the car fly over bumps and jumps. The heavy duty aluminum shock towers are strong and allow multiple shock positions for further tuning. All the suspension pins are supported in rubber bushings; this elastic connection avoids damage to the suspension during severe use. The Mantis TXS has three low profile differentials. The aluminum-top deck is ultra low further adding to the low center of gravity. The Axial Mantis TXS body is low for maximum air flow around the engine. All this adds up to a strong performing chassis with performances advantages you can feel right out of the box.
Maintenance
The Mantis TXS
has been designed for easy access to all important components of the
car. All 3 differentials are within easy reach; if you need to access
them simply remove 4 screws. The engine and pipe assembly can be pulled
out by removing 4 screws. Reaching the steering and suspension
adjustment points require removal of only a couple screws each.
