Fenix 1-piece differential joint for Formula cars

Fenix 1-piece differential joint for Formula cars

Italian company Fenix Racing introduce a 1-piece differential shaft for 1/10th scale Formula 1 cars. Made for Tamiya-style 6mm rear axles the part is machined from 7075-T6 aluminium and it offers a longer thread to allow the use of taller M4 self locking nuts. This in turn improves reliability and allows to use a larger number of diff springs. To minimise weight the contact area for the inner diff plate has been milled down to the smallest possible diameter while the precise machining of the whole parts ensures super true running.

At the recent ETS Fenix Racing introduced the new S5-Ultra front beam for the Su-zuka F1 kit. The design is based on the Schumacher Mi5 technology and the first ever F1 front end that allows to adjust anti-dive and pro-dive. The technology is used also for the king-pin, therefore camber and caster angles are adjustable, regardless the amount of dive. The part is a direct fit for the Su-zuka 2013 and 2014 version and a dedicated version for the Tamiya F104 platform is also available.
