Shepherd Velox V8 aluminium downstop limiters

Shepherd have introduced their new aluminium downstop limiters for the Velox V8 WC and Simon Kurzbuch Edition 1/8th scale kits. Made from high-grade 7075-T6 alloy the parts allow a more accurate droop setting because of the more rigid material. Thanks to a redesign the downstops also use less parts which results in improved durability and a more direct feedback. The limiters are available in blue or black anodising.

Capricorn C803 +1mm rear shock bodies & shafts

Coming from Capricorn and made for the C803 on-road car are the +1mm shock bodies and shock shafts. Adding a millimetre of length to both the bodies and shafts will allow the shock piston to sit at an optimised position within the shock body which results in improved forward traction and bump handling. The bodies come anodised black for wear and looks while the shock shafts received a TiNi coating for improved wear and reduced friction.

Maclan Racing MMax Pico 100A stock racing ESC

Coming from Maclan Racing is the new MMax Pico 100A stock racing brushless speed controller. Looking similar to the MMax Pro the Pico is in fact a completely newly designed full aluminium case structure with 13AWG pre-soldered cables and redesigned power capacitor module. The new design reduces weight by 35 percent and sits 3mm lower in height compared to the MMax Pro. The controller adapts the same Microchip PIC32 platform as its big brother for exceptional performance and the ESC also has a redesigned power management control board that enhances durability and power output for extreme stock racing. The package is rounded out by the new B1.0 firmware that provides the best possible throttle and brake control. The speedo will hit stores about mid-September.
