Rêve D RDX MC-III Conversion Kit

Japanese RC Drift specialists ReveD has released the MC-III conversion kit for their popular RDX 1:10 drift car. The use of machined aluminium and carbon fibre parts improves precision and rigidity in every component, resulting in improved front grip and superior cornering performance. The main chassis and upper deck feature a new MC-III design optimised for the significantly stiffer bulkhead. The battery holder area also prioritises chassis flex and is lightweight. The entire chassis and upper deck flexes, ensuring high traction while improving handling stability. The kit also features newly designed upper arms. These specifications allow for future tuning, such as wider turn ing angles and narrower scrub radius with optional tuning parts to be announced soon. Additionally, a newly developed front body mount stay for the magnetic mount allows for front-to-rear position adjustment, making installation easier on a variety of chassis types.

Associated RC28R Team Kit with Radbody & Tyres

Having entered the 1:28 market with the release of the RC28R during the Summer, Team Associated has teamed up with category body shell specialists Radbody to offer the kit with the Mako X body shell plus tyres. Mako X gives Radbody’s most successful GT Body some revisions to make it a little more stable and precise in high traction conditions. The Revisions include some ridges above the front wheel well and a lower rear window and wing. The front end changes make the steering inputs more crisp without making it nervous, while the lower rear window generates more downforce. This allowed them to lower the rear wing substantially, and when combined with the lower window the result is a car that stays more flatter for more high speed stability and better control in high traction conditions. The Steel chassis RC28R with its fixed-arm front suspension created a huge buzz in the 1:28 racing community on its launch and the car will shortly face its biggest competition so far when it takes on established brands like Reflex Racing and RC Atomic at the upcoming PNWC. The annual PN Racing World Cup takes place in United Stated this year at 5280 Raceway in Denver, Colorado, from November 6-9th.

JConcepts Protector RC10 1989 Stealth buggy body

New from JConcepts comes the Protector body for the RC10 1989 Stealth buggy from Team Associated. Debuted at the 2025 Team Associated Vintage Championship in Las Vegas last weekend and a hit in the hands of Ryan Maifield, the new body shares some styling cues from the original days of the RC10 and one of the most popular kit bodies of all-time. This is a CAD design body shell but has its roots set in the 1980’s with rear biased cab, large rear transmission over-hanging section, and large rear windows. The body fits around the 1989 Stealth chassis with careful considerations to the angles, height, and transitions. One of the most retro bodies in the JConcepts fleet, the Protector has very simple side-pods and efficiently covers the chassis. Multiple side windows, including the vintage back window, stand out as class leading details. The front nose piece of the body is feathered on the sides and chamfered to fit between the shock tower and slides just inside and over the top deck. A small, flared section near the front provides clearance around the steering bell cranks and servo link. The rear overhang of the body is what makes a vintage buggy stand out vs later model vehicles. The rise over the rear shock tower has tower protection and an outlining detail around the shocks. Included in each package is a 5.5” wing that is designed to sit flat on the geometry of the body and sits down and hugs the back of the body. A simple, yet detailed wing design provides plenty of “sling” clearance for dirt and debris from the rear tires. A full selection of gurney options on the rear of the wing gives racers a selection of heights to trim to, depending on the level of traction. The wing side-dams are finished off with a little inspiration from today with the leading edge angled and already in attack mode.
