T.O.P. Rebel 12 servo mount & wheel axles
New from T.O.P. Racing for their Rebel 12 chassis are these 2 new optional parts. First up is this new red anodised alloy servo mount that is designed in a way, so that users can mount their servo flat or at a slanted position. Also released is this steel front axle set. The original kit front axle utilized an e-clip to secure the front wheel so that the axle could be made shorter and so would be less likely to be damage when hitting track boards. This optional axle is designed for users who would prefer to secure the front wheel with a lock nut instead of an e-clip.
