INJORA 1/10 LCG Carbon Fiber Chassis Kit Instruction Manual

1. Introduction

This manual provides instructions for the assembly, operation, and maintenance of the INJORA 1/10 LCG Carbon Fiber Chassis Kit. This kit is designed to upgrade 1/10 scale RC crawlers, including Axial SCX10, SCX10 II (90046, 90047), and TRX4 models, by providing a low center of gravity (LCG) chassis for enhanced performance.

2. Product Features

• Lightweight and Durable Construction: The chassis frame is constructed from high-quality carbon fiber material, offering a balance of low weight and structural integrity.
• Enhanced Suspension Tuning: Features multiple shock mounting points to allow for precise adjustment and optimization of the vehicle's suspension system.
• Low Center of Gravity Design: A 6° chassis design lowers the vehicle's center of gravity, which can improve stability and climbing capabilities on challenging terrain.
• Versatile Compatibility: Includes components for two width options (70mm and 78mm) and metal links, facilitating adaptation to various 1/10 RC crawler models such as Axial SCX10, SCX10 II (90046, 90047), and TRX4.

5. Assembly Instructions

This section outlines the general steps for assembling the INJORA LCG Carbon Fiber Chassis Kit. Familiarity with RC model assembly is recommended. Refer to your specific RC crawler's manual for component removal and reinstallation procedures.

5.1 Preparation

• Ensure a clean, well-lit workspace.
• Gather necessary tools, including hex drivers, pliers, and thread-locking compound (if recommended for specific screws).
• Carefully unpack all components and verify against the package contents list.

5.2 Chassis Frame Assembly

1. Select Chassis Width: Choose the appropriate skid plate and crossmembers for your RC crawler model. Use the 70mm width for SCX10 models and the 78mm width for SCX10 II models.
2. Attach Crossmembers: Secure the carbon fiber crossmembers between the two main chassis rails using the provided screws. Ensure all connections are firm but do not overtighten.
3. Install Skid Plate: Mount the selected skid plate to the chassis frame. This plate serves as the central mounting point for the transmission and lower links.
4. Mount Link Rods: Assemble the metal link rods with the rod ends. Attach the assembled links to the chassis and axle mounts. The chassis features multiple mounting points for tuning; experiment to achieve desired suspension geometry.
5. Install Shock Mounts: Attach your existing or new shock absorbers to the designated shock mounting points on the chassis rails. The numerous holes allow for fine-tuning of shock angle and ride height.

5.3 Component Installation

• Electronics: Install your motor, ESC, receiver, and servo onto the chassis. Ensure wiring is neat and secured to prevent interference with moving parts.
• Battery: Use the provided battery strap to secure your battery to the designated location on the chassis.
• Body Mounts: Attach the body posts and clips to secure your RC crawler body. Adjust the height as needed for proper fitment.

6. Operating Guidelines

The INJORA LCG Carbon Fiber Chassis is designed to improve the performance of your RC crawler, particularly in challenging off-road conditions. The low center of gravity enhances stability and climbing ability.

• Pre-Run Check: Before each use, inspect all screws, links, and shock mounts to ensure they are secure. Check for any loose wires or damaged components.
• Driving: Operate your RC crawler responsibly. The LCG design provides improved handling, but extreme maneuvers can still lead to rollovers or damage.
• Post-Run Care: After use, clean any dirt or debris from the chassis and components. Inspect for wear and tear.

7. Maintenance

Regular maintenance will prolong the life and performance of your INJORA LCG Carbon Fiber Chassis Kit.

• Cleaning: Use a soft brush or compressed air to remove dirt and dust from the carbon fiber frame and metal components. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage materials.
• Fastener Check: Periodically check all screws and nuts for tightness. Vibrations during operation can cause fasteners to loosen.
• Link Rods and Rod Ends: Inspect link rods for bends or damage. Check rod ends for excessive play and replace if necessary.
• Carbon Fiber Inspection: Examine the carbon fiber chassis rails for any signs of cracks or delamination. While durable, carbon fiber can be damaged by severe impacts.
