The new system is mounted directly to the steering-system, and a carbon fibre holder flows around the servo, and the servo thus floats above the chassis. The direct connection to the steering system and thus to the center of the car, makes it the optimal solution, and it also keeps the CG even lower and weight more centerered in the car.
Innovative floating servo-holder combined with steering-system.
Serpent chief designer Michael and racer/designer David looked at all the new servo-holders recently introduced by other brands, but did not like the systems. The early version of the 411 car already featured a different servomount plate, which hardly influenced flex at all and was simple and worked fine. Time to take a fresh look at things and try to make something really new, and that worked out.
