Venom GPV-1 April 23, 2008
Posted by Shannon in : R/C News , 4commentsMaking it’s worldwide debut at the National Hobby Retailer’s Association Expo in Las Vegas, Venom Group International releases the world’s most advanced 1/8th scale radio controlled motorcycle, the Venom GPV-1.
Merging the design philosophies of real world GP race bikes and radio controlled models, the GPV-1 represents Venom Group’s most ambitious project in its sever-year company history. After passing Venom’s intensive design & development program, the Venom GPV-1 Race Bike hit’s the market in July featuring a combination of scale realism with composite materials and high performance handling not usually found in a ready-to-run model of this size or price category.
From the beginning, Venom set out to design a race level motorcycle that was highly tunable for R/C racers yet fun and easy to drive for beginners. To achieve this, Venom designed the GPV-1 around a hybrid carbon-glass chassis structure that offers fine-tuning of suspension while lending a compact, low center of gravity for easy handling. With the Venom VR3T 3-Channel Radio Transmitter in hand, experts and beginners alike are able to immediately take control of the motorcycle and drive it with confidence.
