Arrowmax 2020 competition LiPo battery packs

Arrowmax have introduced three new competition LiPo battery packs for 1/10th touring cars. First up is a new ultra low centre of gravity 7.4V 5900mAh pack that offers a height of only 19.5mm and a weight of 250g while being of a standard 139x47mm footprint. New higher capacity cells allow for ample power supply for power-hungry modified motors or stock class racing. The pack’s low height will ensure an overall lower centre of gravity, increasing cornering speeds especially in high-bite track conditions. Also new are two Narrow Fit slim-style 7.4V battery packs of 5500mAh and 6200mAh capacity. They weigh in at 237g and 242g respectively and are only 37mm in width which will help to centralise the weight especially of the new generation of mid-motor touring cars. Using a slim battery will improve cornering speeds and stability, allowing to squeeze extra performance out of mid-motor cars.

RC Maker BD9 Medius Mid CentraFlex top deck

RC Maker have introduced their new CentraFlex top deck for the Arrowmax Medius Mid conversion on the Yokomo BD9. Tested with some of the fastest Yokomo drivers in the world, RC Maker have developed optimised flex characteristics as seen from their successful Awesomatix CentraFlex. The top deck promises a big improvement in mid-exit and high speed steering while also making the car easier to drive due to the increased rigidity at the front of the top deck. The part also features a 3.5mm hole for use with a BD9 Motor-mount post. This hole is fitted to an optional Awesomatix ST019 special set screw, which allows the top deck to pivot but not flex upwards as a normal set screw would allow. Racers can also use a standard 3mm screw here to lock the top deck down. The upper deck is designed to provide ample clearance for all spur and pinion sizes and it is precision CNC machined in Australia from high quality carbon fibre.

RC Maker GeoCarbon Arrowmax tyre warmer stand

Coming from RC Maker are their new GeoCarbon stands for the Arrowmax tyre warmer. The new Arrowmax tyre warmers boast a great design, however the tiny footprint leaves two floors, they move around on the table, and are hard to read while sitting down. So RC Maker have developed special plates that attach to the warmer’s case. Simply unscrew the end plates, put the carbon stand on, and screw the end plates back on. This will fit in the supplied Arrowmax bag whilst still assembled, no need to ever take it apart again. They are constructed of 100 percent carbon fibre, which is flexible and strong. The feet have been cut in a way to increase their grip to the bench to prevent moving around on the pit mat. The stands come as a pair, a left and a right to do one tyre warmer control box.
