axles front axle

The bronze cast front axle was constructed to the specific demands in the model branch aiming in appearance and function to come as near to the original as possible.

Due to the inclined axle spindle bolt the wheel rolls over the tyre centre. Therefore the wheel cannot "travel off" into the fender but remains moving in its original position. The rolling radius of the front tyres corresponds with that of the original vehicle. As a side effect the servo power required is reduced which also reduces energy consumption. The axle spindle bolts are adjustable to varying wheel positions and chassis lengths.

The installation of leaf springs underneath the chassis allows for a wider steering angle and therefore a much smaller turning radius.

This axle can also be used for all other chassis types with sideways installed springs by means of an adapter which is included in the kit.

 

Since February 2003, all our complete assembly kits are equipped with this type of axle.
