MR33 Tire Warmer PLUS+ 4S Battery Mount Set

MR33, working together with Boom RC, has released this 3D printed bracket & cover for the SkyRC tire heating station meaning you can carry your 1:10 Touring or FWD car to the track with fully powered tire warmers on. Having noticed that the new Matrix D36 in particular needs a lot of heat to function optimally, the decisive factor is how much heat is still present in the tire at the start of the race. The Tire Warmer +Plus is compatible with the SkyRC Tire Warmer and is attached with 4 existing screws. Operation is designed for a Gens Ace Redline 2.0 6000mAh 15.2V 140C 4S battery. You can park your vehicle on the foam-padded surface like on a car stand. To connect the heating station and 4S battery you need a normal 13AWG silicone cable which you have to solder to a 5mm Glod connector (battery side) and to an XT60 connector (device side).

Willspeed LD3 5 Gear Transmission

Willspeed has announced the release of their first drop fit 5 gear gearbox casing/conversion on the Schumacher LD3 2WD Buggy platform. This is an inclusive conversion that includes two aluminium machined case halves, hardware and enclosed gear cover to fit that 5 gear goodness to your Schumacher LD3. The gearbox relocates the motor +21mm further forward compared to the standard location, a popular setup option in modern off road buggy racing for improving corner speed in medium to high traction scenarios. They have selected the idler gear size to maximise efficiency and reliability, maintaining a higher tooth count provides a fuller tooth engagement, notably even more so on the 32dp gear pitch that Schumacher uses. Maintaining the same gear size as the standard LD3 also allows choice between using Schumacher’s gears or our own WS PEEK gears. The design retains the use of the original gearbox top to maintain the quick diff access. Please note, due to the relocation of the motor, this also relocates the spur gear, meaning the bodyshell must be cut around our included enclosed gear cover. Gearbox halves manufactured in 6082 Aluminium. Gear cover manufactured from Nylon.
