About the RX8 2026

Advanced Chassis Design

The XRAY RX8 2026 features an all-updated chassis with optimized flex characteristics, lowered CG, and M4 screws throughout for quick, reliable assembly. A milled layout enables laydown servo mounting and lowered engine positioning, resulting in sharper handling, higher cornering speeds, and greater overall stability.

Lightweight Drivetrain Efficiency

Equipped with hard-coated 7075 T6 aluminum CVD axles, lightened outdrives, and a strategically reduced-mass 2-speed system, the RX8 maximizes acceleration and drivetrain efficiency. Ball-bearing equipped belt tensioners enhance reliability and eliminate belt skipping, while the redesigned Centax BBB clutch ensures consistent, long-lasting performance.

Precision Suspension & Steering

The RX8 integrates carbon fiber shock mounts, lighter downstop limiters, and revised shock geometry for improved stability and reduced unsprung weight. Ball-bearing equipped body holders, reinforced suspension arms, and precision anti-roll bar systems deliver smoother handling, sharper steering response, and superior traction in all racing conditions.

Race-Ready Durability

From a updated piston brake system with ventilated steel discs to robust aluminum engine mounts and reinforced bulkheads, the RX8 is engineered for reliability under extreme conditions. Its Multi-Flex carbon radio plate, advanced fuel tank design, and compact receiver box provide flexibility, strength, and balance—making it a top-tier choice for competitive nitro racers.
