1/5 First Step - Donor Chassis


My starting point will be a Carson 1/5 CY-Eline 4WD BMW 320si Electric Chassis that will be modified for Drift.

With BMW 320i Body in black. It won't be a widebody M3, or will it?



Stay tuned for more as I await the order to arrive.




Carson 1/5 CY-Eline 4WD  is basically a Yokomo DPM that will become RWD and the front geometry modded for lock with some custom components.

While most 1/5 scale chassis like Mecatech, Genius, Concept or RS5  retail for about $4000AUD my target for RTR is around $1000AUD so this base should be ok,


Technical details:
  • All wheel drive
  • 530 mm Standard 1/5 wheelbase
  • 20kg steering servo, water protected
  • 1/5 body shell BMW 320iS
  • 6S / 150A Brushless drive system, water resistant
  • on-road high-speed tires
  • Adjustable oil-filled aluminum shock absorbers
  • Ergonomically adjustable 2.4 Ghz transmitter
Equipment:
  • Scale: 1/5
  • Length: 970 mm
  • Width: 400 mm
  • Wheelbase: 530 mm
  • Weight: approx. 6.000 g
  • CY5-Eline Chassis
  • AWD drivetrain
  • Fully ballraced
  • Top speed approx. 75 km/h

Adaptors for the FG wheels are also selected. Which will be modified for drift tyre sleeves.
