Hexdek Magnetic work deck
New from Hexcrews, the magnetic Hexdek provides a flat, secure area to keep your parts out in the open with no need for a tray. Your parts end up being easier to see and access without them rolling off the table. Nothing more annoying than seeing a small set screw or ball bearing roll away that you couldn’t grab fast enough. Multiple styles and sizes to choose from.

Grid also considered the lightweight factor of the DX3R by milling the drop-down as thin of a profile as possible, so that it also matches the styling of the DX3R. The Grid wheel drop-down adapter takes only minutes to install. Once installed, the racer will benefit from a more relaxed and comfortable hand position.

Associated XP ESC Fan option
Specifically for use with XP 1:10 electronic brushless speed controls, like those that come with SC10 and T4.1 RTRs, this new fan option attaches directly to the ESC’s heatsink for maximum cooling. The fan comes pre-wired with a connector that plugs directly into the ESC connector and mounting hardware is included. Any electronic component will benefit by operating at a lower temperature, which results in improved power, efficiency and reliability. Note that the B4.1 body will not fit over an ESC with the fan option installed.
