RC Maker Product Description:
Introducing our brand new short wheelbase arms for the Awesomatix A800MMX & A800FX! These were developed over a year ago, and through multiple profile tests following feedback from numerous team riders around the world, we have agreed on the final design!
Firstly, these arms have a larger profile than the kit arms to increase the stiffness of the arm. They also feature a carbon rib which further increases the stiffness of the arm at the shock mount point. This results in less twist in the arm and reduces unwanted interference with the shocks due to arm flex. In our testing, these arms increased cornering speed by reducing the bend and grip of the arm, making the car more free in the corner.
Once we had decided on the profile of the arm, we wanted to see if we could optimise the position of the hub. When studying the handling on the track and other brands on the market, we noticed that the front wheelbase of the A800MMX was quite long and it was not possible to adjust it without changing the front caster. In general, we found that the car lacked rotation at the beginning and middle of the corner, which led us to choose a shorter front wheelbase.
The shorter wheelbase has significantly improved the car's responsiveness and agility at low speeds, particularly on tighter, more technical tracks, rather than on larger, flowing tracks.
We opted for a -1mm shorter arm which moved the front wheelbase back 1mm. Since a short rear wheelbase (negative caster) is so commonly used on the Awesomatix, we figured we could use the same arms at the rear to achieve the same result without having to use as much rear caster. This reduced the number of arms to keep in the spares box and also reduced the need for rear caster, which was a win in our eyes!
In summary, the wishbones are a great tuning option that we believe improves the cornering speed, responsiveness and turning ability of the car especially on tight technical tracks when used both front and rear.
This pair includes a left and right +8mm arm that can be used either front or rear. They are CNC machined with engraved length and offset for easy identification.
Tip: When used on the rear, 0 degrees of caster is now the same as -2 with the kit arms, so if you were using -2 before you should now use 0, if you were using -4 before you can now use -2 to achieve the same wheelbase. Pay attention to the shims on the rear toe arms as these may need to be adjusted slightly for the different caster setting.
Installation tip: When installing, make sure to loosen and re-adjust the position of the dampers. Due to the slightly shifted wheelbase, the damper rods sit slightly differently, so it is a good idea to re-adjust the position of the damper assembly.
