Technical Performance
The Carisma M48S/M40S 2.0 Differential Housing Set represents precision engineering tailored specifically for 1/8 scale brushless RC buggy applications. Differential housings are precision-machined components that must withstand considerable torque transfer and rotational stress during aggressive cornering, acceleration and deceleration cycles inherent to RC driving.
