For the pass 7 years, SWORKz kept developing and improving their 1/8 off road nitro buggies. After
the successful debut of the SWORKz S350 EVO II Limited edition (2015-2016), we continued to follow
SWORKz DNA and further build on the EVO II Limited edition. Ultimately SWORKz created the S35-3
Pro Nitro Buggy.The S35-3 is a brand new SWORKz 1/8 nitro buggy.
The S35-3 newly designed arms are made from a strong standard nylon material. Optional carbon
covers are available to adjust the arm’s stiffness. A new front Ackerman steering system and a
unique front shock tower design allow you to change the front upper angle position with ease.The
centre plastic BBD diff system provides better acceleration to the S35-3. A new simple radio tray
system gives better and more precise throttle and braking response. The T-7075 aluminum chassis
come with several new designs. The L.F.C (Lower Friction Coefcient) chassis allow users to install
15-45g balance weight on the chassis CG position. The S35-3 includes high quality parts, a rened
shock system, more options and optimized suspension geometry. The SWORKz S35-3 Pro Kit comes
standard with many SWORKz Factory Team Option Parts. SWORKz utilizes only the highest quality
materials and industry leading manufacturing processes resulting in a faster, stronger, and more
reliable vehicle. The S35-3 Pro Kit has been designed to win. Congratulations on your purchase of the
new SWORKz S35-3 1/8 scale off-road racing buggy pro kit.

Pro Tip:
The S35-3 Front Upper Arm Adjust Inserts
can give different steering adjustments (Ackerman).
Put all inserts behind the front upper arms, you will get faster steering response.
Otherwise put all inserts in front of the upper arms,
you will get more stable steering response.
Try to use 2503260-1 or 2503260-3 to adjust the front upper arm position.
