We like making small things, well, BIG! The new Tetra 1:24 w/portal axles packs a phenomenal number of features making the it unparalleled to even many 1:10 scale platforms. Our thought and research was the market thrives on scale detail and durability so why not give them an abundance of it, right from the start.
Portal Axles coupled with Metal Worm Gears
The heart of the Tetra 1/24 are the portal axles. Portal axles provide an abundance amount of ground clearance and give a scale detail that is found more common in 1/10 rigs but a first for a 1/24 platform. In creating the portals, the desire was to have a consistent feel ascending and descending all types of terrain. This is where the metal worm gear drive system gives the same exact driving experience going up or down different terrain. You control the speed 100% with the throttle going downhill just like you would uphill versus the brake / motor magnets doing the work on your descents.
Light up the Night Sky
The Tetra is also ready to light up the trail. The X series lighting system includes 8 LED’s – 4 front facing LED’s and 4 rear LED’s. The system is controlled from the transmitter that includes four distinct light settings – off, solid, slow flash and strobe. We didn’t stop there. The brake input on the transmitter activates the white reverse lights while turning left and right activate the blinkers. The Tetra 1/24 is ready to get the party started both day and night.
Magnetic Body Mounts
Never need or lose a body clip again. The magnetic front body mounts complete with rear hinge make accessing the battery and anything else capable with the flick of a finger.
Electrified Body Mounts
Wait, what? Yep, we said electrified magnetic body mounts. In addition to magnetic body mounts, the power to the lights from the ESC travels through the magnetic mounts. The magnets effectively become the plug/unplug feature of the lights from the chassis to the body. Complete freedom to remove the battery without wires getting in the way. Complete freedom to work on your vehicle without needing to remove the wires from the ESC.
Complete Confidence
To ready itself for all the detail, the Tetra 1/24 utilizes the same transmission, motor, driveshafts and several other parts from the Tetra 1/18. The oversized 180 motor, driveshafts and transmission brings a durability confidence that rivals anything else in the 1/24 scale category.
Scale Detail
Aluminum threaded shock bodies, beadlock wheel, black oxide c-channel metal chassis rails, a bunch of molded accessories on the X Series body including a full spare are all apart of the new 1/24th package. It’s small, it’s capable, it’s feature packed and it’s fun!
