K-Factory ultra-lightweight servo mounting screws

HRC Distribution have introduced the K-Factory ultra-lightweight aluminium servo mounting screws. Made from aircraft-grade 7075 alloy the fasteners are of a special design with a collar right under the head that fits snugly in most servo case mounting lugs, greatly reducing the change of the servo moving in the event of a crash. The screws do away with the need for additional washers and thus make for easy and convenient building and maintenance. The screws are usable with most 1/10th and 1/8th vehicles, they come in packs of six and are available now.

K-Factory B8 One-piece engine mount

K-Factory B8 One-piece engine mount

From K-Factory for the Team Magic B8, comes this new one-piece engine mount. Machined from a single block of high grade aluminium, its design ensures that both wings of the engine mount are perfectly aligned to reduce any possible pressure on the engine crankcase. In addition, both upper & lower sides of the mount are leveled by CNC machine to ensure full contact with the chassis and engine, while the block’s multi-fin design helps improve heat dissipation.

K-Factory TM E4 Steering crank

K-Factory TM E4 Steering crank

K-Factory have released a new steering crank set for the Team Magic E4. Whilst the standard nylon components are reliable and durable, they reckon that CNC machined 7075 lightweight hard coated aluminium is better. What matters is the accurate transfer of servo motion to the wheels and a light, rigid material will perform better than a malleable one where energy is being transferred. The mounting point of the steering arms to the steering bell use inserts with offset holes, allowing for quick and easy Ackermann adjustment.

K-Factory Lightweight G4 Differentials

K-Factory Lightweight G4 Differentials

K-Factory have released this pair of lightweight differentials for the Team Magic G4. The differential cover is now hard coated lightweight aluminium and have been precision machined and lightened to reduce rotational mass, improving acceleration and deceleration. The bevel gears within the differential have also been redesigned to precise specifications creating an ultra smooth and efficient meshing. Finally K Factory has reduced tolerances during engineering to provide precision specifications and a perfect fit into the bulkheads, this improves the power delivery to the drive system without the losses of efficiency incurred by a loose or sloppy fit.

K-Factory E4 Alu 5-cell Battery Mount

New from K-Factory is this E4 aluminium battery mount for 5 cell packs, specially designed to be used in the Team Magic E4FS and E4RS electric touring cars. Similar to the mount released previously for 6 cells, it too claims to make your car much more reliable and stronger, due to the increased hardness of the lightweight aluminium which when mounted acts as a structural part of the chassis. Hard coated for excellent surface protection, the battery mount features a milled battery tape slot that goes along the length of the mount to hold your cells in place.
