The VS4-10 Phoenix features the Vanquish Products VFD Twin transmission (patent pending) and new F10 straight Axles.

This combination provides performance advantages never before offered in a scale kit of its kind. The VFD Twin incorporates Selectable Overdrive Shifting and a 3-position dig unit into one compact package. The molded F10 Straight Axles utilize a high clearance design which minimizes the size of the pumpkin and maximizes strength around the C-hub and knuckle. Connecting the VFD Twin to the F10 Straight Axles are the ISD10 driveshafts. The ISD10 Driveshafts have machined CV style joints at each end with molded splined shafts between them for smooth and efficient performance.

VFD TWIN TRANSMISSION

The VFD Twin Transmission (Patent Pending) kit is an evolution of the original VFD.  Taking the same balance of performance, scale appearance, strength, and adding industry first features.  The VFD Twin comes equipped with selectable overdrive and rear dig.  Twin shifting transfer case utilizes replaceable bearing plates, a brass pivot for the shift arms, and chromoly shift slides.  Borrowing from our proven Hurtz dig, the VFD twin shifting is smooth and reliable.  On the fly overdrive shifting from 6.5% to 33% makes an immediate change to the driving characteristics and tuning options.  The VFD Twin transmission places the motor forward and as low as possible.  Compatible with 540 brushed and brushless motors*

CHASSIS

Vanquish Products VS4-10 Chassis is made to provide you with a balance of scale looks and unhindered performance. The steel C-channel design provides scale detail, molded front and rear cross members fill the chassis rails in the highest stress locations for ultimate strength and provide features like dual servo mounts, winch line routing, and a fuel cell. The molded rock sliders come with a replaceable tapered outer portion that perfectly fits the Phoenix body. The VS4-10 chassis is developed to work with the VFD Twin transmission to keep the overdrive and dig servo low on the platform. The panhard mount on the chassis is made from machined aluminum to withstand the impacts of severe trail conditions. Molded shock towers capture the top of the 80mm Incision S8E Shocks in double shear for maximum support. Narrow molded front and rear bumpers maximize clearances while improving approach and departure angles.

  • Heavy Duty High Clearance Steel C-Channel Frame Rails
  • Molded Front Inner Fenders with integrated LED mounts
  • Phoenix Molded Rock sliders
  • Phoenix High Clearance Bumpers

SUSPENSION

The VS4-10 features Incision 90mm S8E shocks with larger 8mm bore aluminum threaded bodies, dual X-ring seals, locking preload collars, keyed spring cups, polished steel shock shafts, and machined pistons. The front 3-link with panhard suspension provides scale looks by keeping the servo out of sight, while still providing room for full suspension travel. The suspension pivots on a full set of stainless steel links to keep the weight down low with a smooth transition from the link to the rod ends. 

  • SC8E Incision 90mm Shocks with bleeder screw shock cap
  • Stainless Steel Links
  • Stainless Steel Pivot Balls
  • Stainless Steel offset lower shock pivot balls for tuning shock width at axle

S8E SCALE SHOCKS

The Incision S8E Scale Shocks feature a larger 8mm bore for increased damping. The increased volume reduces internal shock pressures for longer seal life. Dual molded X-Ring lower shock cartridge provides more sealing surfaces than standard o-rings. Threaded shock bodies allow for a wide spring preload range. Offset lower shock pivot balls allow for greater flexibility for tuning shock angles.
