JConcepts 1/10th AE ball-cup assortment

JConceptsAEBallCups

JConcepts introduce their new ball-cup assortment for Team Associated 1/10th off-road vehicles. They are of a heavy-duty design and come as wedged and rib type. The wedge ball-cup has an increased diameter around the turnbuckle which naturally provides a beefy cushion between metal and plastic plus the cups feature a longer boss which slides over the solid shank of the turnbuckle increasing the overall strength of the connection. Included is an angled version of the wedge which can be used on the outside of the rear camber link for increased clearance on the rear wheel and also to the inside which increases clearance around big bore shock springs. The rib ball-cup is a more traditional design but incorporates 3 ribs across the weakest point resisting bends and tweaks normally associated with hard crashes. A short, rib ball-cup is also included for servo to steering bell-crank connection. Both the wedge and rib ball-cups include an open top which allows for ball-end accessibility for quick and damage free adjustments and they come as 36-piece sets.

JConcepts TLR 8ight 3.0 Silencer body

New from JConcepts comes the Silencer body shell for the TLR 8ight 3.0 buggy. Designed for high-speed tracks, the body features a narrowed, Finnisher stance cockpit that allows better fuel tank access and offers increased flow around the engine’ heatsink. A deep recess around the heat-sink area with dual channelling out the rear provides air escape along with rear-end stability. The body’s side-pods have a clipped rear-end, narrowing the rear by angling just in front of the rear tyres. The Silencer is capped off with a cockpit “shark fin” for more high-speed tracking stability and increased roof stiffness. As usual the body comes clear, including window masks and a decal sheet.

JConcepts 1/8th Bullet buggy wheel

JConcepts introduce their new 83mm Bullet wheels for 1/8th off-road buggies. With a higher focus on stability and extremely grippy track surfaces, the larger overall diameter stretches the tyre sidewall, slightly flattening the tyre profile giving more forward traction and tightens up the reaction felt by the driver. The wheel features durable yet flexible inner ribbing and lightened features which reduce rotating weight. The outer face highlights a slightly concave shape and outer lightening bullet holes around the axle area. The wheels incorporate an outer glue catch that resists excess glue from running down the wheel face during the gluing process and they are available in packs of for in yellow or white colour.
