Pro-Line Pro-Bond tire glue

Pro-Line knows tires and understands that the strongest bond possible between the tire and wheel is a critical aspect of performance and tire longevity and so has developed Pro-Bond Tire Glue. The first challenge was developing the strongest glue possible while also having the correct flow characteristics and dry time that RC Racers and Bashers desire. This Glue has a hold strength of 3,200 PSI which is the highest strength of any tire glue available and their unique glue formula also provides the fastest drying glue possible while drying crystal clear with no yellowing or whitening found when gluing tires with other glues. A super soft and squeezable round bottle while the applicator tips are re-usable unlike the throw-away tubes and have the perfect size applicator hole for gluing tires.

Pro-Line Bulldog for Kyosho RB6

Pro-Line have released their Bulldog body for the Kyosho RB6. This body has been designed specifically to fit the Kyosho buggy chassis yet still provides the unmatched performance characteristics that define Pro-Line’s BullDog body line. Great care was taken in refining the BullDog design for 2012 to create even more stability with enhanced steering to gain an advantage on the track. The windshield is steeper to create more down force over the front wheels and the roof ridges have been raised to channel the air flow over the middle of the body for increased high-speed stability. The roof has been lowered in the rear and fins have been added to achieve stable air flow over the body. The fins also add rigidity to the body to increase aerodynamic efficiency.

Xray XB4 1/10th 4wd buggy

Xray have officially announced their new 1/10th scale 4wd EP buggy platform, the XB4. The XB4 is the world’s first 1/10 off-road chassis incorporating the Multi-Flex adjustment technology, which allows tuning the chassis flex for different track conditions. It doesn’t matter if the track is low traction, medium or super high traction, you can adjust the chassis flex to suit the track conditions in a matter of seconds, and again adjust the flex easily when the conditions change. The revolutionary and unique chassis design merges a Swiss 7075 T6 aluminium backbone and composite chassis-plate which have been firmly mounted together to create a solid framework with each piece playing a distinctive role. The aluminium backbone provides the car with stability and stiffness, while allowing torsional flex along the lengthwise axis while the composite chassis absorbs vibrations and works as the main Multi-Flex element, allowing the changing of flex independently in the front and rear of the car.
