Bezerk 1/10th touring battery hook sets

Available for some of the most popular 1/10th electric touring cars are Bezerk’s new battery hook sets. The battery posts are located as close to the side and centre of the battery as possible to reduce the stress on the upper retaining tab while the 5mm thick battery hooks are beefy enough to take a beating and high enough to keep the battery in its place. The mounting holes are slotted to allow a small amount of left/right adjustment. The 3mm upper tabs look minimal in size but due to their placement are more than up to the task. The kits includes two battery hooks, two battery tabs and two black alloy hex standoffs. Other options include shorter standoffs for very low batteries, standard 17mm and option 15mm, and are also available in silver. The sets are available for the Infinity IF14, Team Associated TC7.2, TC7.1 and TC7 as well as the Xray T4 ’18 and ’17 and also for the Yokomo BD8 and BD7 kits.

Infinity IF14 Titanium & Aluminium screw set 

Infinity has released a weight saving 85 piece titanium and aluminium screw set for their IF14 Electric Touring Car. Weighing in at around 19g, the set is 50% lighter than the kit’s standard steel screws. The titanium screws included in the set are for the lower chassis plate where strength is most important with the aluminium screws intended for use where low centre of gravity and the lightest possible weight is advantageous. In addition, the aluminium screws optimise the chassis balance and flexibility. The screw set is offered in two colour options with the aluminium screws available in black or red.
