Rebellion-RC Cross-Flex MM aluminium chassis kit

Listening to customer demands, RC-Carbonstore have announced the soon release of the all-new Rebellion-RC Cross-Flex aluminium chassis for their MM mid-motor touring car conversion kits. Of an ultra-low centre of gravity and adjustable flex design the main plate offers basically three chassis in one as it allows to adjust the overall flex to a wide range of track conditions thanks to interchangeable inserts that are held in place using M1x2mm screws. The highly machined herringbone design chassis can be equipped with brass inserts for running in high to very high-bite conditions, lighter and more flexible carbon fibre inserts make for a softer chassis for medium traction conditions and running the chassis without any inserts gives the most amount of flex for lower grip tracks. Mixing and matching the inserts and using more or less screws for fastening also allows to adjust the car’s weight bias and flex in certain areas. Testing of the new design is already underway and the main plate kits, that will become available for Rebellion-RC’s T4, TC7.2 and BD9/BD8 mid-motor chassis conversion kits will be up for grabs in about three weeks’ time.

Yokomo YD-2RR rear motor conversion kit

Yokomo have introduced the YD-2RR rear motor conversion kit for the YD-2E and YD-2S RWD drift car kits. The set includes new gearbox halves that use a reduced amount of idler gears for better throttle response while an updated motor position, with the motor sitting closer to the rear axle, eliminates the unwanted pendulum effect. The newly designed “swingable” motor plate allows to rotate the motor in order to access different throttle and weight balance setups for a range of track conditions and a resin rear chassis brace offers controlled chassis flex for improved rear end response. The set is rounded out by a set of spacers that brings the body posts to the previous position as the shock tower is moved forward to make way for the spur gear. The conversion is a direct fit on the YD-2E and will fit the YD-2S using optional parts such as the E series upper decks, the Y2-303AR alloy or Y2-303MR plastic rear brace supports and and battery holder.

Traxxas TRX-4 Mercedes-Benz G 500 4×4² trail truck

Seen for the first time at this year’s Nuremberg International Toyfair, Traxxas has now announced the official release of the TRX-4 Mercedes-Benz G 500 4×4² RTR trail truck. In 2015, Mercedes-Benz released the limited-production G 500 4×4² to stake its claim as the ultimate off-road vehicle. Outfitted with a powerful V8 engine, dynamic 4WD system, and military-grade portal axles, the G 500 4×4² had no equal. Traxxas honours the rich history of the G-Class with this highly-detailed RC replica. Based on the class-leading TRX-4, the Traxxas Mercedes-Benz G 500 4×4² features portal axles, a high/low transmission, and locking differentials for all-terrain capability. Outfitted with 2.6” replica wheels and tyres, chrome grill and skid plate, and a full complement of scale details, the TRX-4 Mercedes-Benz G 500 4×4² combines iconic style with the toughness and technology of the TRX-4 Scale and Trail crawler. Portal axles lift the truck at the wheels for huge centre pumpkin ground clearance while virtually eliminating torque twist. The TRX-4’s highly adjustable chassis offers a nearly endless supply of upgrades ranging from lift kits and portal weights to full LED light kits and tough aluminium accessories.
