MXLR MTC3 FlexBumper

Max Machler’s MXLR brand has added the Mugen Seiki MTC3 to its offering of 3D printed FlexBumpers.  Weighing 9.5 grams, it is printed with thermoplastic polyurethane for the optimal strength and flexibility and matches the original MTC3 footprint but with a lower overall profile.  Over a foam bumper the advantages of a FlexBumper are it absorbs hits better and does not transfer them as much into the chassis structure.  More robust and sturdy, it always goes back to original shape and don’t drag on the floor after a crash.

MXLR A800 M-FlexBumper | Rear Body Support

New from MXLR comes this M-FlexBumper for the Awesomatix A800 platform which is a weight optimised version of the German brands popular FlexBumper.  The goal of the new ‘M-shape’ bumper was to offer a lighter version thas remains stable and strong enough.  Coming in at 8.8 grams, more than 3g lighter than their standard FlexBumper version, it is only 3g. heavier than the kit foam bumper.  The M-FlexBumper for the A800R/RR & A800FXR matches the original footprint, but with a lower overall profile.  Also new is a Rear Body Support that prevents the deflection of lightweight body shells, especially at higher speeds, while also reducing the risk of cracking the wheel arches of the body shell.  The result is an extended lifetime of your body shells combined with better performance on the track as the shell will stay in its original shape and produce more downforce.  The MXLR Rear Body Support is made of high quality material which is very durable and offers excellent impact resistance.  In the design process special care was taken regarding the A800R bulkhead design and the importance of “flex” in this area with Rear Body Support designed to have the least flex influence possible.

MXLR New Formulation V2 Oils

Germany’s MXLR has released a new V2 formulation of its Ball Bearing oil and its Driveshaft & Gears oil.  The newly refined Ball Bearing oil was developed once again in close collaboration with a specialised German manufacturer and is further optimised to reduce rolling resistance even more efficiently and ensure a freer drivetrain with reduced power loss.  The new light-blue coloring helps easily distinguish it from the original version and makes application more visible.  Ultra-thin consistency means just 1–2 drops are enough to penetrate sealed bearings and deliver long-lasting performance and protection.  The new V2 Driveshaft & Gears oil offers improved wear protection, stronger adhesion, and still maintains exceptional freedom of movement. Even under high RPM, the oil continues to lubricate critical components reliably.  As before, both oils come in 10ml bottles with precise metal tip to ensure clean and effortless application.

MXLR A12 Fan Holder & Damper Check Adapter

MXLR has released a new Fan Holder and a Damper Check Adapter for the Awesomatix A12 1:12 platform.  The fan holder is the final version of the prototype which Max Mächler used to win the 2023 1:12 SPEC World Champion Title.  It is not easy to fit such a big and strong fan into the A12 but using smaller than 30mm wasn’t an option because of the sacrifice in performance.  At the Worlds Mächler used a heavily modified Fan to clear with the body shell.  After several more tests and versions MXLR finally found a suitable way which doesn’t require as much modification, if any at all.  They moved the Fan more forward and mounted it way steeper on the holder.  The key to still get a great air flow were the small side dams.  The results of using the Fan Holder with a strong 30mm Fan at 6,0V is a much lower motor temperature.  Depending on the track layout and grip conditions, it reduces the temperature by 12-18 degree Celsius.  This leads to the option of using more timing at the motor and/or longer rollout, which means more speed.  Weighing only 2,6g (without screws) the Fan Holder is 3D printed with relatively durable material which is able to absorb impacts to a certain degree.
