XRAY X4-2024 1:10 Touring Car Kit Carbon Version

Xray Product Description

Chassis

The X4’24 chassis was redesigned to work with the new lower arms, shock holders, bulkheads, motor mount and centralized battery holders. The new chassis features a narrower design in the front center and rear center areas to eliminate chassis rub and improve cornering speed. The added material in the motor area extends overall chassis life. The chassis also features updated holes for the stronger 3mm motor mount centering pins for improved durability and an additional front motor mount screw position for black carpet.

The graphite adjustable battery holders are moved closer to the chassis centerline so more material can be removed in the common chassis rub areas to improve cornering speed.

More material under motor area improves the life of the chassis on the bumpy tracks while also improving chassis flex characteristics.

The ’24 motor mount features an extra front mounting point added for high grip black carpet, improving the stability and consistency of the car in these particular conditions.

The new motor mount also features larger 3mm centering pins for increased durability in serious crashes compared to the previous 2mm pins.

There are two chassis alternatives to choose from when selecting your X4’24:

The 2.2mm graphite chassis is CNC-machined from premium-grade material. This chassis is developed for all asphalt conditions. The narrow chassis is only 84mm wide with a variety of chassis flex adjustments that help to generate exceptional traction and give excellent steering characteristics.

The 2.0mm aluminum flex chassis is CNC-machined from premium Swiss 7075 T6 aluminum and then black coated. The narrow chassis is also 84mm wide and features special cut outs that provide the desired chassis flex characteristics. The bottom edge of the chassis is tapered to reduce contact between the chassis and the ground to improve cornering speed.

Suspension.

The X4’24 suspension components are completely redesigned with improved inner shock position with ultra-low CG. This new configuration uses new lower & upper arms, new upper clamps & lower bulkheads, new anti-roll bars, steering & ARS plates and new shock holders.

Suspension Arms.

The completely redesigned upper & lower CFF™ suspension arms are the foundation for the new inner shock mounting system ultra-low under arm anti-roll bar mounts and fully updated geometry. The new suspension arms greatly improve flex and twist under dampening. With the shock mounted on the inside of the arm, the load is more evenly distributed through the suspension arm, increasing the mechanical traction and responsiveness of the car.

The re-designed location lowers the shock 4.5mm to reduce the CG and improves cornering speed and stability. These changes make the X4’24 easier to drive and more resistant to traction rolling in high traction conditions. More centralized weight also improves tire wear and controls tire temperatures.

The CFF™ style of arms provide extremely responsive and sharp handling, generating great cornering speed & traction. The result is great drivability that is critical for improved lap times.

XRAY has specifically chosen different arm hardness to include in the graphite and aluminum versions of the X4’24 for the best possible out of the box performance on their intended surfaces.

X4’24 Graphite Edition include Medium suspension arms

X4’24 Aluminum Edition include Hard suspension arms

Upper Arms.

The new upper arm shape conforms around the inner shock position for proper clearance without compromising strength and improve steering and both forward traction and lateral grip. The updated design also improves durability and eliminates radial play for maximum precision and control from the upper arms.

The graphite and aluminum versions of the X4’24 come with specifically chosen hardnesses of suspension arms to match the typical conditions, and both are compatible with all X4’24 arm options for additional tuning versatility.

X4’24 Graphite Edition includes Soft upper arms

X4’24 Aluminum Edition features Medium upper arms

Inner Shock Mounting.

All-new inner shock mounting locations improve the rolling characteristics & cornering consistency, as well as optimize flex and reducing twist under dampening. Front suspension moves the shock position behind the drive shafts for more precise steering response and improved steering characteristics. Rear suspension moves the shock position in front of the drive shafts for improved traction.

Shock Holders.

Versatile new shock holders use shims for adjusting the shock position in more precise shock angle increments. The rear shock holder offers an Active or Fixed dampening setting in addition to the shock angle. All shocks are located 4.5mm lower, improving CG, cornering speed and stability, while also making the car easier to drive and more resistant to traction rolling.

Simplified shock mounting uses a captured mounting stud secured to the shock holder with a special setscrew. It is not necessary to use thread lock as the setscrew will keep the stud secure even during shock install/removal.

Rear Active Dampening Cornering Effect.

All-new rear shock holders offer Active or Fixed dampening setting alternatives. The Fixed setting is the traditional shock mounting method, while removing the M3x8 screw allow the Active holder bracket to pivot, softening the rear suspension dampening to improve off-power steering and increase rotation in high traction conditions.

Bulkheads

All-new bulkheads integrate with the new shock holders, new ARS linkage mounting position and new rear body post holders. The new bulkheads position the anti-roll bars for their under arm mounting points for ultra-low CG. Both front & rear bulkheads include attachment points to secure the shock holder to the bulkhead to control flex and adjust responsiveness.

The bulkheads use centering pins for easier positioning on the chassis and for increased rigidity and consistency.

The bulkheads feature two solid axle/diff height positions that were developed for different surfaces. The lower position is mainly designed for carpet, and the upper position is more common on asphalt. The anti-roll bar mounting position keeps the wire bar placed under the suspension arms for ultra-low CG.

Made from premium Swiss 7075 T6 aluminum, black anodized.

BB Drive Shafts.

Our unique ECS system uses a redesigned drive shaft case with a C clip groove to secure the new aluminum pin retainer. Thanks to this unique SCS – Spring Clip System, no set screws are needed to capture the coupler pins, making the ECS assemblies easier and more convenient to assemble, and more reliable. The driveshaft service life is increased as the pins float freely in the joints, ensuring smoother rotation and improved cornering speed. 

Spring Clip System

The all-new SCS – Spring Clip System allow for super easy, fast and simplified installation of the wheel hubs on the drive shafts. Now it takes just one click to install or remove the wheel hub and you can forget about the hassle with the outer C-clips. Smart & easy.
