MXLR A12 KingPin Ext. Screw & Carbon Electronics Plate

New from MXLR for the Awesomatix A12 1:12 race chassis are this KingPin Extension Screw & Carbon Electronics Plate.   The main feature of the KingPin Extension Screw is the extension of the KingPin length by 0,5mm which allows a greater possibility to set front droop with certain tires/rims.  The flange on the lower site of the head is the exact same OD as ST1208 (Steel and Alloy versions) and suitable to fit SH12S0.2 Spring Shim’s as well.  The ultra flat head design clears easily with all current 1/12 scale front rims on the market.  The Carbon Electronics Plate is made from high quality 1.0mm Carbon.  It’s a rather simple design but offers many advantages like it extends the rather small space to mount your electronics in the A12, very quick exchange of the whole electronics by just 2 screws, and the little notch on the front site helps with centering of the servo when you use a non direct mount Servo.

MXLR MTC2 / MTC2R FlexBumper

MXLR has extended its FlexBumper production line with addition of a model for the Mugen MTC2/MTC2R 1:10 Electric Touring Car.  MXLR FlexBumpers are 3D printed with thermoplastic polyurethane for the optimal strength and flexibility.  Over foam bumpers they absorb hits better and doesn’t 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.  For the Mugen MTC2 / MTC2R it matches the original footprint, but with a lower overall profile as a direct replacement for the kit foam.  The lower overall profile helps to keep the weight in an acceptable range.  There are two MX logos on the backside to proof the originality.  In terms of weight comparison,  the MXLR FlexBumper is ~11,4g versus the original Kit Bumper at ~8,7g.

MXLR A800R Front Body Support

MXLR has released this Front Body Support for the Awesomatix A800R to prevent deflection of the bodyshell under higher speeds.  With the trend of feather light bodyshells and even higher top speeds, deflection of bodyshells has became an issue with top racers.  The support also reduces the risk of cracking the front wheel arches of the bodyshell.  The result is an extended lifetime of your bodyshells combined with better performance on the track as the shell will stay in its original shape and produce more downforce.  The support is made of PA12 Nylon which is very durable and offers excellent tensile, abrasion and impact resistance.  In the design process MXLR took special care about the A800R front bulkhead design and the importance of “flex” in this area with the support designed to have the least flex influence possible.

MXLR A800R ShockVac

MXLR has released the Awesomatix A800R ShockVac, a specially designed case which holds the newly designed Awesomatix dampers in upright position to suck the air out of the case/silicone oil by using one of the popular brand Air Removers.   With the all new design of these dampers its very hard to put them into the case of a normal air remover.  The solution is our super slim design ShockVac.  Reliable and stable positioning to fit perfectly under the upper case of the Air Remover.  The solid alloy case allows a deep and lasting vacuum which is key to get all the small air bubbles out of the complex A800R dampers.  Additionally it’s very handy in size which means it doesn’t take as much space on your pit table while working and is easy to store it in your race bag.  The ShockVac is machined from high quality black anodised aluminium with silver edges and laser engraved MX logo. It is important to note that the upper case, the rubber sealing and the vacuum pump itself is NOT included in this set and require the parts from the RIDE or the Tamiya Air Remover set.

MXLR Anti-wear, O-ring greases & Elastic tire glue

MXLR are happy to extend their production line with three new products to keep your RC model in the best shape and on the highest performance level. The new anti-wear grease is made in Germany with a special manufacturer for grease and oil. The special mixture reduces the wear of driveshafts and gears, and indeed all metal-to-metal connections. It is high pressure resistant and super sticky enabling it to stay in the right place. Next up is their new O-Ring grease, which is also produced in Germany and consists of well chosen high quality ingredients in a special mixture to protect O-Rings / seals against swelling or shrinking. Additionally, the grease further reduces the friction and adds extra smoothness for the perfect operation of dampers and gear diffs. Lastly is their new Elastic tire glue that stays elastic and offers phenomenal gluing power. The best choice for gluing your RC tires, as it doesn’t stiffen up the rubber-plastic combo as much as other glues. Your tire game will be a lot more consistent and smoother, resulting in better performance on the track. Also perfect for sidewall gluing of rubber and foam tires. The tire itself keeps the ability to ‘work’ as the sidewalls can still float/move, whilst the glue stays flexible and doesn’t get brittle.
