antenna Mount:

  The antenna mount secures the antenna support tube to the chassis.

battery:

  The Rage 1/18th 4WD Electric Off Road Truck includes a 6 cell, 7.2 volt 1100mAH NiMH battery. This battery provides ample power and long 

run-time between charges.

battery cover:

  The battery cover holds the 6 cell battery securely in the chassis.

body Mount:

  Made of high-impact nylon plastic for strength, the body mount supports the body, front and rear.

bumper:

  Made out of high-impact nylon plastic, the bumper protects the chassis from most head-on and rear-end impacts. There is a bumper on both 

the front and the back of the Rage 1/18th 4WD Electric Off Road Truck for added protection.

electronic speed contoller (esc):

  The Rage 1/18th 4WD Electric Off Road Truck includes the Cirrus Digital Electronic Speed Controller that is matched 

to the included motor and battery. The Cirrus Digital Electronic Speed Controller features automatic setup, forward, brake and reverse functions.

electric Motor:

  The Rage 1/18th 4WD Electric Off Road Truck includes a powerful, high-speed, 370 electric motor for awesome acceleration and power. 

An aluminium heat sink is installed on the electric motor to help keep it cool.

on/off switch:

  Turns the receiver on and off.

Receiver:

  Receives signals from the transmitter and processes those signals into movements that are sent out to the ESC and the steering servo.  

shock absorber:

  Each shock is oil-filled and uses a spring that is well suited for most off-Road conditions. The shocks can be tuned for different driving 

conditions by using different weights of shock oil. The shocks come standard with 10Wt oil and yellow springs.

steering servo:

  Controls the Rage 1/18th 4WD Electric Off Road Truck's steering.

shock tower:  

Secures the shock absorbers to the chassis. The shock towers are made from high-impact nylon plastic for greater strength.

steering  tie-Rod:

  The  tie-rod  connects  the  steering  linkage  and  steering  hubs.  The  steering  tie-rods  are  adjustable  so  you  can  make  toe-angle 

adjustments to the wheels.

suspension arm:

  Helps improve the Rage 1/18th 4WD Electric Off Road Truck's handling (when coupled to shock absorbers) and braking while ensuring 

maximum traction (keeps the wheels in contact with the ground) and protects the chassis components from undue stress and strain.

 

wheel/tyre assembly:

  The Rage 1/18th 4WD Electric Off Road Truck features large diameter wheels and tyres. The tyres are moulded rubber with a 

tread pattern that is good for most off-Road applications. The wheels are moulded in one piece from lightweight, high-impact plastic for strength.
