GF-01: Seriously Stable 4WD

This gear-driven 4WD chassis is based around a lightweight and tough monocoque frame, with power provided by the centrally-positioned motor. Sealed gearboxes protect from dust and debris and are integrated into the frame, while the built-in differential gears provide smooth cornering. This is reinforced by 4-wheel double wishbone suspension with CVA oil dampers and a two-piece tie rod steering setup with the servo on the left for excellent response. Two-piece wheels are joined by ST block bubble tires, and WR-02 or GF-01 Hop-Up Option parts are available to hop-up your model.

?Left: The GF-01CB chassis has a wide stance for superior balance, even during wheelies. It's compatible with WR-02 and GF-01 Hop-Up Options.

?Right: This cross section of the monocoque gives a close-up on the gear-driven powertrain, which supplies reliable and smooth four-wheel drive.

?Left: Four-wheel double wishbone suspension employs CVA oil dampers to ensure that your model can take plenty of bumps in its stride.

?Right: Yellow rims and dark gray spokes are a winning combination. New ST block bubble tires will give a drive to remember!
