The Serpent ERYX 411-4.1 is the next development stage for the 411 platform. Featuring an ultra low centre of gravity, optimized weight distribution, high performance geometry and top quality materials throughout, the ERYX is your car for personal best times !
Serpent is offering this ERYX 411 4.1 version car as alternative to the Project 4X car, for drivers that are looking for a more regular looking car and with a lower price tag. The ERYX 4.1 is still a high end racing car with lots of tuning options and is suitable for all levels of racing.
Key main specs - 7075 T6 motormount, centrally mounted, allowing sufficient flex - upgraded differentials with new internal gears for smoother action - big bore shocks with pre-oiled x-rings - hard compound moulded suspension parts - 2mm carbon fibre chassis and carbon flex type top deck - Ball raced anti-roll bars - Centrally mounted servo-mount, lowest cg - low friction belts and super true low friction pullies
General features
Steering assembly
The Serpent ERYX utilises a centrally mounted ball raced dual pivot steering assembly-rack in aluminium. Offset steering linkage for correct steering geometry and Ackermann. The steering assembly allows for very precise steering and great control. The Ackermann is adjustable by using shims. The system pivots on wider low steering-shafts, creating a more direct steering feel. The bearing in the levers are pressed inside for a play-free assembly
Unique servo-holder The unique and innovative carbon fibre servo holder has zero influence on tweak, as it�s floating above the chassis and mounted directly to the steering-assembly in the centre of the car. This also keeps the weight lower than any other design.
Suspension brackets For adjusting the cars toe-in and track-width, the ERYX is equipped with separately mounted suspension brackets on both the front and rear of the car. Each bracket features an easily recognisable number that corresponds to the setting being used and due to the way they are mounted allows the user to easily and accurately adjust their cars settings. The brackets are designed such way that they can be used in any position in the car. The inner brackets FR and RR are now split type, to allow for more flex. The split suspension blocks are mirror type, so you can use them either left or right and obtain a different desired setting. This way less different blocks are needed for a good variety of settings. Standard ones: 3.5/ 0.5 split blocks in the rear, 2.0/ 0.5 in the front
CVD's spring-steel This car is supplied with a complete set of 4 high quality hard coated spring-steel CVD shafts, which are a highly consistent, efficient and durable way to transfer all the power the surface.
Chassis plate and top deck The very narrow chassis plate has been machined from 2.0mm carbon. All holes in the base of the chassis have been countersunk. The chassis further features extra holes to mount weights and additional stiffeners. All holes are as close to the centreline of the chassis, to create even flex. Flex type 2mm top deck to allow for optimal flex. Using all or less screws to fasten it may influence flex even more.
Battery-stays The battery pack is kept in place by 2 mounts on the centreline of the car, and 2 composite mounts with slits to mount the glass-tape or use Velcron strap.
Belts - drivetrain The ERYX features a 2-belt configuration with a long front and a short rear Kevlar reinforced low friction belt that combined with precision moulded gears makes for a super smooth and free drive train.
Shock towers The Serpent ERYX features 2.5mm thick carbon fibre shock towers on the front and rear of the car. Each tower sports many holes for adjustment of the shock absorber angle while the rear tower also acts as the mount for the rear body posts and the front tower accommodates a 3rd front body post.
Spool The car comes supplied with a front spool which has been made from hard anodised aluminium and is used with blades to increase lifespan. The shape has been optimised to ensure that the part is as light as possible without compromising strength.
Anti-roll bars The ERYX is supplied with coded anti-roll bars front and rear with a composite centring bracket. The anti-roll bars are available in a number of thicknesses and are connected to the wishbones using short adjustable track rods, connected with a pivot ball to the lower front wishbone, and with a ball directly to the rear lower wishbone. The anti-roll bars run in small tapered nylon inserts, and the anti-roll bar is centred through one captured centre bushing.
C-hubs front A standard system on most high-end touring cars, the ERYX features a front C-hub system in hard composite. The car comes standard with a 4-degree caster block but is also supplied with a pair of 2 and 6-degree blocks. The C-hub is large enough to take out the drive-shaft assembly without dis-assembling the c-hubs.
Front suspension Similar to the rear suspension in configuration, the front suspension sports a hard composite wishbone while the upper camber adjustment is handled using an aluminium track rod which is strong, lightweight and can easily handle impacts.
Rear section with harder arms The rear end of the ERYX features stronger hard lower wishbones. The lower wishbones can be used on both the left and right sides, minimizing the number of spare parts needed to bring to the track. The rear hard upright features a pivot pin mounting point on the bottom and 2 upper camber link mounting holes for fine-tuning camber rise.
Central section The machined aluminium motor bracket is superlight and super low and suits both stock and mod gearing well. The small front aluminum bracket can be fitted with an aluminum bushing with long screw to connect to the top-deck. It can also be removed to create extra flex. The separate machined brackets hold the light aluminium middle shaft/ 19T pulley.
Composite Gear differential with new material composite gears and X-axle The ERYX comes supplied with a lightweight and smooth rear gear-differential. This supermall differential can handle all the power of BL motors. Gear-diff can also be used on the front. The new version has new type composite internal gears and 3.5mm x-shape shaft and features coated aluminium outdrives. The metal gears can also still be used or mixed with composite.
Big bore shocks The new Serpent big bore on road shock absorbers lower the centre of gravity even further. They come with threaded coated shock-bodies, pre-load shock nuts with O-ring, harder membranes , super smooth and strong shock-rods with clip to hold the piston, perfectly machined pistons ( 1,2,3 and 4 holes in kit) in a new yellow material , top-level x-ring /bushing package, light spring-cups, strong ball joints, pre-oiled x-rings. High quality race-springs included with colour coding, grinded flat for even load.
Bumper The front bumper has been made from a high impact absorbing foam material and is shaped to protect the entire front end of the car in the event of a crash. The bumper is held in place with a large top-plate.
Ball-bearings The ERYX is supplied with high-quality lightweight bearings with orange seals throughout, making the drive train very efficient and allowing it to run very smoothly.
Package total weight: 1100.00 grams (incl. packaging)
Package size: 16.00 x 38.00 x 9.00cm

The Racing Experience Serpent has been around for more than 30 years and it was founded by Berton BV, which is named the two founders, Pieter Bervoets and Ron Ton, which both were RC car racers. The pair built their first RC car in 1972, using a Kyosho Dash 1 chassis modified by themselves. In 1977, the duo started to develop their first car under the Serpent name in 1977 and in 1979, both Bervoets and Ton had won separate EFRA 1:8 titles with their Mk. III Pro.
Despite the broken road that Serpent has been on, they've got team drivers from Europe, US, and Asia, taking 9 world titles, and 37 European titles altogether, plus a number of nationals. Its line of products specializes mainly in 1/8 and 1/10 scale for buggies, touring, and pan cars.
It's Serpent's goal to create great products, which offer a truly great racing experience. Experience racing, race Serpent! All Serpent products are available at the largest online rc store.
