T-Works introduce new A800MMX optionals

Coming from T-Works are new optional parts for the Awesomatix A800MMX touring car. First up is a 24-piece set of ball ends made of 64 grade titanium. Included are eight 5mm and 16 4.8mm ball ends that not only lower the overall weight of the car but they also add visual impact and corrosion resistance. Also coming is a 13-piece set of 64 grade titanium turnbuckles as a replacement for the standard parts. The lightweight titanium turnbuckles make for a cool factory look, a low weight and they come including a suitable turnbuckle wrench. Last but not least are a total of four screw sets including a black 93-piece all-aluminium set, a 93-piece all-titanium set, a 93-piece mixed aluminium and titanium set as well as a 113-piece gold colour steel screw kit. The titanium and alloy sets will greatly lower the car’s overall weight while the gold-coloured set mainly adds bling and ups corrosion resistance.

H2 Racing Development A800MMX flex cut top deck

Coming from H2 Racing Development is a new flex cut top deck for the Awesomatix A800MMX. Machined from genuine 2.0mm Torayca carbon fibre the top deck offers improved torsional flex due to a cut front section, making it possible to run aluminium main chassis already in lower bite track conditions which can improve overall stability without sacrificing steering or rear traction. The top deck will become available separately and it should be up for grabs from March.

RC Maker A800MMX GeoCarbon V2 bumper mount

RC Maker have introduced the V2 version of their popular GeoCarbon bumper mount for the Awesomatix A800 MMX and MMCX. Designed to be used with the kit P14-1X lower bumper mount, the upper carbon fibre brace increases the bumpers rigidity, and also the body post rigidity by offering more support around the post. The part is a direct replacement for the standard mount, and also includes a built-in brace to brace the bumper to the bulkheads, preventing the bumper bending in impacts and also saving the chassis. This part does not touch the bulkheads but clears by the slightest of margins as to ensure no tweaking. Constructed of high quality 3K 3mm carbon, it is lightweight and durable, and it fits all 2018+ models with AM78X1 bulkheads.

7075.it A800MMX LCG battery weight

Coming from 7075.it and made for the Awesomatix A800MMX is a 47g LCG battery weight. Only 1.1mm thick in total the weight fits snuggly into the machined slots of the original MMX chassis and also 7075.it’s own optional flex main plate, ensuring a very low overall centre of gravity while adding weight when needed. The battery weight comes in handy when running the latest generation of lightweight LCG or ULCG battery packs and due to its interlocking design, it doesn’t come loose during a run while allowing the chassis to flex freely at the same time.

7075.it introduce new A800 optionals

7075.it have announced the release of new optional parts for the Awesomatix A800 series of touring cars. First up is a brass shorty battery holder set for the A800MMXA kit. Designed for the use with LCG or standard height packs the kit only fits the Awesomatix C01B-X-MMA mid-motor alloy chassis as well as the 7075.it flex version 7075-AWX-MMW and 7075-AWX-MM main plates and it is usable with the original Awesomatix battery hold downs or 7075.it’s new tape system battery holder. The design of the battery locators allows the chassis to flex freely while moving the weight as close to the chassis plate as possible for an overall lower centre of gravity. In addition the mounting holes are raised by 0.5mm to not disturb chassis flex. The battery holder set is recommended especially for high-bite surfaces like ETS or CRC black carpet.

Also available are 2.0mm upper decks, again machined from Toray Torayca T300 pure carbon fibre material.
