XRAY is pleased to present the improved and refined M18 PRO - based on the legendary M18 platform, but redesigned with high-performance racing in mind. The M18 PRO' progressive design embodies an enhanced driving experience...from the purpose-built performance chassis...to the unique revolutionary XRAY Multi-Flex Technology top-deck...to the smooth externally-adjustable ball diffs...to the race-oriented wheel mounting system. The M18 PRO was born from racing DNA to challenge your racing skills on any track.
XRAY’s innovation & patent Multi-Flex Technology™ - MFT™ was originally designed for 1/10 touring cars, and has resulted in some of the most significant milestones in touring car development in the past few years. Now XRAY does it again! XRAY’s MFT™ now revolutionizes the micro platform in the M18 PRO. With the MFT™ top deck you can set up and adjust the M18 PRO for all different racing conditions. No matter if you drive on asphalt or carpet, using rubber or foam tires, you can quickly, easily and independently adjust MFT™ points on the top deck – front or rear — to give you different flex characteristics. Tailoring a micro car to the track has never been this easy!
One of the most significant improvements to the M18 PRO is the wheel mounting system. The new M18 PRO features a touring car-type hex wheel hub mounting system with one-piece wheel which directly mounts to the wheel axle. Thanks to this one-piece mounting system, the wheel is perfectly and solidly connected to the drive axle, giving improved handling. No more hassle with assembly/disassembly... no more lost races due to lost wheels. A professional solution for the M18 PRO.
The M18 PRO chassis is all-new, designed specifically for high-performance racing. The narrow 1.6mm thin chassis has been optimized for strength (for high-grip racing conditions), while still being flexible enough for low-grip track conditions. The chassis is CNC-machined from the premium high-grade carbon fiber (graphite) material by XRAY on ultra-precise German CNC routing machines, ensuring the highest tolerances in all critical areas.
