The Hobby Hideaway Verdict: A Game-Changer for Ottawa’s 1:28 Scene! The buzz around the 1/28th scale community is real, and the XbilitY One is at the center of it. Designed by world-class racers to challenge industry standards, this chassis brings professional, "big car" engineering to the micro scale. It’s not just a refresh of old ideas—it’s a ground-up innovation designed to give you a competitive edge on the track. Whether you are chasing the podium in our local leagues or fine-tuning your lines at home, the XbilitY One offers a level of mechanical precision and adjustability that was previously unheard of in this scale.
Championship-Level Engineering & Adjustability The XbilitY One introduces a revolutionary 3-point ball differential that solves the alignment and wheel-mounting issues common in traditional 1:28 setups, ensuring smooth, consistent power delivery lap after lap. Up front, the steering geometry is inspired by 1/8 on-road racing, allowing for professional-grade tuning of camber, caster, and track width. Combined with a high-durability steel chassis, this car delivers an "on-rails" feel with braking stability that mimics a 4WD system, giving you total confidence in the most technical sections of the track.
Key Features:
1:8 Scale Inspired Front-End: Features advanced steering knuckles that allow for sharper, more linear steering and easy adjustments to track width and camber.
Revolutionary 3-Point Ball Diff: A smart mounting system that eliminates wheel play and alignment problems, ensuring your drivetrain stays smooth and reliable.
Fully Tunable Geometry: Multiple roll center and camber gain options let you tailor the front end to suit different driving styles and track conditions.
Mechanical Weight Balancing: Features adjustable battery positioning for 24mm hard cases or soft packs—fine-tune your car’s balance mechanically without moving electronics.
Professional Steel Chassis: Provides a low center of gravity and ideal weight distribution for exceptional cornering and 4WD-like braking stability.
Rear Bench Tuning: Three leverage points allow you to adjust rear-end response and grip levels without needing to alter your track width.
Included in the Kit:
XbilitY One RWD Chassis Kit
2pcs 11mm (+3 offset) Rear Rims

Hobby Hideaway Pro Tip: Since the XbilitY One uses a unique 3-point mounting system for the rear wheels, the included rims are essential for your initial build! While you can use any brand for the front rims, utilizing the Xbility-specific rear rims ensures you get the full benefit of that revolutionary, play-free differential system.
