The real effect
The real effect of the serpent and tekin designs is a live real axle. Exactly the same movements. Only benefit is you could build a set up somewhere half way. Might be better for on road but off road...

Testing
Well the first real outing on a race track has had good results.
1. It does jump like the FS, corrections in the air are very easy and controlled. Better than an RB5 - Yes.
2. In the hair pins...
