The next evolution of the Serpent F110 platform takes F1 1/10 racing to new levels of performance. The F110 SF3 is based on the racing experience gained over the last 2 years of racing IDFM, ETS, TiTC and races all over the world.

The new F110 SF3 features a new narrow 2.5mm lightweight aluminum chassis in 7075 T6 with black anodizing, combined with extended carbon fibre side-bars to fit the electronics and weights more towards the back, this way allows the optimal longtudinal battery mounting and a very agile and responsive car. On the front the 2 separate L and R lower wishbone plates have been replaced by a full carbon suspension plate all the way across. The very realistic front and rear wings remain but in a stronger more flexible composite as well as the rear diffusor. ETS winning technology and performance!
