X Factory Infinity T5M carbon fibre chassis kit

X Factory Infinity T5M carbon fibre chassis kit

New from X Factory comes the Infinity T5M carbon fibre chassis kit for the Team Associated T5M stadium truck. Being a direct replacement for the somewhat heavy standard aluminium chassis the chassis kit saves about 75g of weight while adding flex for improved cornering, jumping and performance in bumpy section. The chassis has several advantages over the standard aluminium part in addition to super-light weight. It won’t tweak and the flex is controllable with the side rails and waterfall; depending on which screws are installed and how tight they are, the driver controls how much flex there is and where it occurs. This allows to quickly and easily adjust the truck for many surface conditions, from the highest traction to a blown-out eighth-scale track, from high grip to no grip. The kit includes a the main chassis plate, side rails and small parts for the conversion.

Xray XB4 graphite chassis braces

Xray XB4 graphite chassis braces

Xray have introduced two new graphite chassis brace sets for the XB4 off-road buggy. Available for shorty and saddle pack battery configurations the sets allow to run the buggy without the upper deck for a wider range of chassis flex settings. The graphite parts are designed to attach to the lower composite chassis braces and by using more or less mounting screws the flex characteristics can be further fine-tuned. Both the shorty and saddle pack configuration sets are available separately and they include all needed mounting hardware.
