This machined purple aluminum upper deck is an aftermarket replacement designed for the Auper D6 platform. It gives a sturdy mounting surface that reduces unwanted flex and helps maintain consistent geometry for electronics and body fittings.
Installation involves removing the stock upper deck, aligning the new plate with Auper D6 mounting points, and fastening with the existing screws. Ensure there is adequate clearance for servo, ESC and motor before final tightening and use controlled torque on fasteners.
The deck functions as a tuning tool by increasing mid/high frequency stiffness, which can change cornering behaviour and provide a firmer contact patch feel. Integrate the deck into setup work through incremental testing and small suspension adjustments.
A purpose-built upper deck for Auper D6 owners wanting a durable, repeatable plate to fine-tune chassis stiffness and handling.
