Atomic MRV 1:28 V-Link RWD Chassis Kit

1:28 specialist manufacturer RC Atomic has announced the upcoming release of its MRV kit.  The MRV has Atomic’s new developed side link RWD chassis which features a new idea, inspired from 1:10 pan car (Fenix Racing), the V-Link pivot system. With this new solution they have been able to further lower the chassis roll centre which couldn’t be achieved previously because of physical limitations that you cannot fix a centre pivot ball below the chassis plate – e.g the MRZ and similar platforms on the market which use Horizontal center pivot ball.  While the V-Link system offering a “virtual roll centre”, where the imaginary joint of the 2 short pivot links, that is ultra-low and result in more mechanical grip when the car attacking corners, more mid corner speed and linear steering response.  This makes the car easier to drive, with more rear grip, and more speed exiting corners.  How do you choose between MRX and MRV ? The MRX is more suitable for open class with high KV motors and big tracks, because link-less system offers better overall stability. The new MRV is good for lower KV motors, such as 2500kv or stock class, since the MRV is lighter and more responsive in handling especially suit for small or tight tracks.

Last weekend Australia played host to the third round of the Cayote backed Asian Buggy Championships, with the Pine Pills Dirt Racing club in Brisbane welcoming its biggest international entry yet.  The third year the oil treated dirt track has been a stop on the Asian Buggy Championship calendar, the race would see Infinity’s Kouki Kato make his eBuggy debut with the Japanese manufacturer’s new prototype electric buggy and win, while in a rain shortened Nitro Buggy final Alex Bernadzik took his Team Associated to victory.  Unfortunately we were unable to photograph the winning Electric and Nitro Buggies – Kato’s eBuggy still at prototype stage and Bernadzik’s RC8 B4.1 featuring special rear hubs that the US manufacturer was not yet ready to show to the public.  Red RC’s first time to visit the highly praised Pine Pills Dirt Racing track, which is locate in very nice setting of the James Drysdale Sporting Complex, during our coverage of the race we did still get the opportunity to photograph 8 buggies from 6 different manufacturers.  In case you missed any of the Chassis Focus’ during our coverage ‘Down Under’, we have compiled them all here in our latest Chassis Focus index.

Ielasi Tuned ‘Pista’ .21 Onroad Engine

Having announced their new 2025 engine range earlier this weekend, Ielasi Tuned has unveiled specific details about the new ‘Pista’ .21 Onroad engine.  This engine is the result of over a years work with their entire team, and which culminated with victory on its debut, securing P1 and P2 in qualifying, and P1 and P2 again in the final at the recent ENS race with team drivers Simon Kurzbuch and Toni Gruber.  Starting with the name, Ielasi Tuned decided to discontinue the “GP9” series that existed since the beginning of this collaboration with O.S. Engines to send a strong signal of a new beginning.  Produced entirely by O.S. Engines but now 90% from Daniele Ielasi’s designs and directives, only the crankcase and the carburetor body are in common with O.S. – everything else about the engine is exclusive to Ielasi Tuned.  The new Pista engine differs from the previous GP9R24 in many details.  The top needle/holder on the carburetor is entirely produced by in-house, no longer by O.S., as they have decided to go their own way, focusing heavily on ease and precision in engine carburetion.  A new bottom needle produced by O.S. greatly optimises acceleration at low revs.  The Pista gets a new exclusive Ielasi Tuned underhead by O.S. as well as a crankshaft optimised with Ielasi Tuned timing.  New 2025 version piston and cylinder gets a new inhouse finishing process using a new technique that has improved ease of break-in, almost minimising the problem of scratches while maintaining a coupling and compression hardness that lasts over time which is a major improvement on the past.  In addition option parts include a new Ielasi Tuned connecting rod and a Swiss made WIB Ceramic Bearing.
