K220 Schumacher FT9 FWD Alloy Kit

The Schumacher FT9 - Alloy (SCH-K220) is a high-end 1/10 FWD “Frontie” competition chassis engineered for outright pace, agility and a super-low centre of gravity. Drawing on proven Mi9 touring car DNA, the FT9 K220 adds a precision 7075-T6 alloy chassis with significant rear weight reduction and refined flex characteristics, delivering confident, repeatable performance across varied track conditions.

Key Features

• 7075-T6 alloy chassis (K220) with extreme rear weight reduction and advanced flex tuning.
• Revised front bumper with foam and black brass weight; optional 60g additional weight positions (6x10g weights U8774).
• All-new rear suspension layout and shock mounting, forward-biased weight distribution and refined geometry.
• Updated front and rear transmission housings for optimum rigidity and rearward weight saving.
• Lightweight gear differential with ultra-smooth action; optional oil-bleed build technique included.
• New driveshafts with low-profile joints, bearing-supported outputs and reduced rotating mass.
• Nano shock absorbers shortened by 7.6mm for lower CoG with uncompromised stroke.
• New front hub carriers (plastic supplied; optional alloy available) and improved front wheel hexes.
• Rear alloy wheel hexes with inner alloy nut fixing for easy wheel fitment.
• New steering arms with adjustable ackermann and optional crash stop locations.
• Enhanced lower wishbone design with improved flexibility and droop control; identical L/R arms and robust outer ball-and-socket.
• Independent rear body mounting; shocks mounted separately for handling consistency.
