Titan ARC R10 double-joint CVDs

Titan RC have released this latest option part for the ARC R10, a pair of double-joint CVDs. The shafts are made from hardened spring steel, which is super durable and provides a smoother transmission on the R10. The new design features 4 holes in the middle joint, which not only reduces weight but also make it easy to apply lubricant into the joint, while a reenforced spring ensures you never lose the connecting pin under any condition.

ARC R10 touring car options

ARC have released two new option parts for their R10 touring car. First up is a new suspension bracket which provides +0.5 angle for the suspension arm. Made by 7075-T6 aluminium it can be use in the rear/front to make the rear toe-in 2.5 degrees or in the front/rear and move the #1 suspension bracket to the front/front to reduce the front track width. Also new is a rear drive shaft made from hard coated 7075-T6 aluminium. It directly replaces the standard rear spring steel drive shaft and is 30% lighter than the original making for a more efficient transmission.

ARC R10 optional flex chassis

ARC have released this new option chassis for their R10 touring car. The optional flex type chassis is made from 2.5mm carbon fibre and they added 2 layers of glass fiber in the middle to give more flex. Their testing showed that with 2 layers of glass fiber the chassis was more flexible and made the handling more predictable. The new chassis also provide a extra hole for a battery holder and shorty LiPos can be used. The new 1.6mm thick upper deck also gives more flex as well as more steering and stability especially on low grip track conditions.

ARC R10 190mm electric touring car

ARC RC have introduced their R10 1/10th 190mm EP touring car chassis. It has been designed with a minimum of parts that not only keeps overall weight down, but also makes maintenance and setup on race day easier. The ultra precise ball-ends and steel-hardened balls have been designed and developed to ensure minimum tolerances and remove play in the joint. The R10’s chassis is 82mm wide which allows the car to roll more quickly and reduces the chance of the car grounding while cornering while the CVDs have been made from hardened spring steel and are designed to use a G clip to prevent the drive pin coming out during use. The hard anodised shock bodies are teflon coated, giving the CNC shock piston smooth movement and excellent durability. The full plastic gear diff, has 6 precision gears producing a smooth and efficient operation and with 7075-T6 hard coated outdrives, there will be no leakage of oils from these units.
