Exotek have introduced a range of new option parts for the Tekno RC EB410 1/10th 4WD buggy in the form of rear locking hinge pins, heavy duty steel and brass suspension blocks as well as an aluminium steering rack. Starting with the rear hinge pins, the titanium locking/captured hinge pin set with 2mm hex head eliminates the problem of the rear hub hinge pins sliding out of the arms during impacts. The design securely holds the hinge pins and hubs in the rear arm, thanks to the captured pin and lock nut design.

Exotek introduce new RC10F6 option parts

Coming from Exotek and made for the Team Associated RC10F6 formula car are the new rear traction plate set and the adjustable front camber arm kit. Starting with the rear end, the rear traction plate set is a battery hold down conversion that adds rear end flex to the F6 chassis for improved traction in all conditions. The redesigned shock plate includes a battery hold down bar so that tape is not needed to hold down the battery, for easier more secure battery hold also with the benefit of added chassis flex. Also included are three extra soft top shock springs as an added tuning touch to increase rear grip on lower grip track or rubber tyre conditions. The conversion is usable with standard shorty LiPo packs and requires two new holes in the body shell for the repositioned body posts.

Exotek Rock Rey HD gearbox set & servo arm

Exotek have introduced a heavy duty front aluminium gearbox set and a heavy duty clamping servo arm for the Losi Baja and Rock Rey trucks. Starting with the gearbox set, the all-machined alloy gearbox delivers extra durability and precision gear mesh and alignment – the alloy construction insures the drive shaft gear maintains 100 percent teeth engagement against the diff gear to eliminate the problem of worn gear teeth and poor gear mesh. Additionally, a larger 11mm bearing is included to better withstand the forces of high powered motors on the input shaft to reduce bearing failures there. The gearbox comes with a polished and anodised finish and it fits the 1/10th Losi Baja and Rock Rey kits.

Exotek EB410 rear brass weight set

Exotek have introduced a brass rear weight set for the Tekno EB410 buggy. Made of brass and black coated to reduce corrosion, this weight set is designed to easily bolt on to the rear of the EB410 with an extra low profile. The main weight is 40g and included are two add on 8g weights so that drivers can tune the rear weight of the buggy as needed. The weight set is also slightly angled off of the chassis to maintain chassis flex. Sold separately are additional 8g weights to add extra grams if needed.

Exotek TLR 22 & B6/B64 titanium driveshaft accessories

Exotek have released a range of titanium driveshaft accessories for the TLR 22 and Team Associated B6/B64 buggies. First up are lightweight Ti6 titanium rear axle shafts for the TLR 22 series of cars. Coming from Exotek’s Flite series of lightweight parts, the shafts are machined with a tighter tolerance for less bearing slop than the stock axles and about 50 percent weight saving compared to the stock steel axles. They are best suited for stock classes for reduced rotational mass and weight needed in the hot 17.5 classes as they are not suggested for modified use. The axles work with the stock or MIP bones.

Exotek roll out new EB410 optionals

Coming from Exotek and made for the Tekno RC EB410 buggy are a couple of new optional parts. First up is a machined heavy duty 81T spur gear and mounting plate set for the stock centre gear diff. The much stronger machined delrin spur gear reduces the chances of stripped gears and includes the machined 7075 mounting plate with hardware. The 2-piece design also makes for quick and easy spur gear changes as owners do not have to open the gear diff and remove the outdrive, or refill the oils. In addition the alloy mounting plate provides cooling of the diff fluid for more consistent diff action. A 81t spur gear is included and the alloy mount also works with Exotek’s optional 72T spur.
