Team Associated B64 Factory Team option parts

Team Associated have introduced a range of new Factory Team option parts for the B64 range of 1/10th 4WD buggies. First up are aluminium rear hubs in blue or black colour. The uprights are of a symmetrical design, they allow for axle height adjustment and the vertical camber link ball stud mounting helps to achieve finer roller centre adjustments. Also new are +2 FT steering arm blocks. Laser-etched for easy identification, the parts add more Ackermann than the stock plates which results in smoother steering response. Last but not least comes the FT LRC arm mount B made of heavy brass material. A direct fit for the standard LRC arm mount B, the part adds weight to the front of the buggy, it lowers the centre of gravity and improves front end consistence through high speed corners.

Team Orion Vortex Ultimate Modified brushless motor

Team Orion have introduced their new Vortex Ultimate Modified brushless motor. Like the Ultimate Stock variant, the modified motor, that won the 4WD Buggy class at last weekend’s Hot Rod Hobbies Shootout in the hands of Xray’s Ty Tessmann, will offer increased performance and efficiency thanks to a low resistance design, a new “Ultimate” sensor construction for accurate timing adjustment and control and precision-balanced rotor manufactured using a new magnetic material. The latter will also improve brake efficiency and feeling while a new stator design and material makes for optimised efficiency and cooler running temperatures. The motor is rounded out by a 4-piece can design and a new angled front plate. The Vortex Ultimate Modified motor is race legal for all major governing bodies and it is available in 4.5T to 8.5T variants with a 6.5T 1/12th scale specific version becoming available also.
