The Penguinr/c P3500lm LeMans Performance Chassis is designed to allow maximum placement opportunities for your electronics. This chassis set has all of the same great features of the standard P3500 Performance Chassis. Advantages to using this chassis include increased torsional stiffness with a lowered center of gravity through the mounting of the electronics on the lower chassis. click on picture for larger view The newly developed rear roll system is one of a kind in this class of car. This roll system retains a completely flat chassis while providing maximum rear pod adjustability. The advantages of this system include the ability to adjust the rear of the car to gain or reduce traction or roll according to the track surface and driving style of the user. There are a total of 12 plates that are available (4 soft, 4 medium, and 4 hard). In each set there are 2 pairs of plates, one made from G10 Fiberglass and the other from Quasi-Grade Graphite Plate consisting of a low and high roll option for each material. The 3 graphite low roll plates are included with the standard P3500lm chassis kit. All the plates are also available separately in G10 and Graphite, Low and High roll Sets. click on picture for larger view At the rear of the P3500lm we designed a new rear deck system. This graphite rear deck allows use of any style shock currently on the market. This innovative deck allows the use of aftermarket oil filled shocks with either wheelbase setting without having to readjust any shock settings (when shock length is the same as stock). click on picture for larger view In addition to all of the features mentioned above, the P3500lm's chassis is mounted .5mm lower eliminating the belt friction associated with the standard Micro. The P3500 includes a quick release center battery mounting plate to allow use of many different style batteries packs without interfearing with the belt. This plate P3505 can be purchased separately to allow mounting of several packs before installation in the P3500. The P3500lm also has two battery mounting options. These options are The P3509a saddle pack battery plate kit which creates a saddle pack style mounting system for the LeMans car by use of two quick release plates, or the P3509b Bullet plate kit which creates a similar layout in which sells are put end to end down each side of the chassis. The P3509b kit also has weight adjustibility from front to rear. The P3509c is the same as the P3509a in layout but allows mounting of 8 cells. click on picture for larger "on car" view The P3500lm, in 150mm mode, allows adjustment of the saddle packs or center mount battery pack to two different positions for weight balance. The 150mm mode also allows the option of using the standard size HPI Upper Deck or our Standard Upper Deck Option (P3502s) when using the 150mm format. Using one of these decks will retain the use of the standard HPI Battery mounting System. |
