M Mod parts for MBX5 and MTX4 Categories - Mugen, All Mod, Accessories, Off Road, On Road, Products - comments closed
We have shown you lots of parts from M Mod before, as well as All Mod, and today we have more parts to show you, this time only for Mugen. The first up, which you can see above is a rear lower wishbone pivot point for the MTX4 that has been made out of the trademark grey anodised aluminium and adds to the strength required around this area in the event of an impact. Also available from M Mod, for the MBX5 and the MBX5-T, is a part that combines the upper servo saver mount and the upper rear side front suspension pivot point in one part which adds greatly to the strength and stiffness of this entire area.

LRP Brushless & Brushed Cooling Set Categories - LRP, Motors, Electric, Accessories, Products - comments closed
LRP have announced the release of their Brushless & Brushed Cooling Set, which is essentially a fan and heatsink combination. As we all know excessive motor temperatures lower the efficiency and the power of a motor and can also lead to permanent damage so with this new offering from LRP you will see a considerable reduction in motor temperature during the race which keeps motor power up. Suitable for all 540-type motors, the set features a blue anodised heatsink and an oversized cooling fan to remove the heat.

Xray have released this new optional narrow upper deck for their T2′007 190mm electric touring car. Made from 2mm carbon, when mounted the car should be easier to drive because it increases overall traction and is recommended to be used on low-traction tracks, either asphalt or carpet.

Serpent WOS steering block Pro set Categories - Serpent, Accessories, On Road, Products - comments closed
Serpent today released these WOS steering blocks set for the Serpent 960 that contains 2 steering blocks, bearing eccenters, ceramic bearings, spacers and nylon pivot ball nuts. Featuring a different offset to the standard kit versions, the blocks can be used in 2 different configurations by swapping the side of the car they are mounted on. These changes, depending on the side the steering blocks are used on, will either give you more turn in on corner entry, or more on power steering at corner exit. The included eccenters ensure that the axle is raised higher than centre line, which enhances the effect caused by this new configuration.
