Xray X4 Upper Clamp -1mm

New for its 1:10 Electric Touring Car platforms, Xray has released -1mm – Inner Shock Position (L+R) Aluminium Upper Clamp for the X4.

Yokomo MD1.0 LTS (Load Transfer Special) Drift Kit

In its latest Drift car development, Yokomo has released the MD1.0 LTS (Load Transfer Special). This high-end chassis replicates the movement of a real car, characterised by its weighty load transfer and chunky suspension with sinking and stretching legs. Building on the MD1.0 configuration, the LTS features a high-mounted battery that strategically adjusts the centre of gravity to produce body roll, allowing the car to navigate corners with the realism of a true vehicle. The front and rear boast specially designed, supple, multiple-wound springs exclusive to the LTS, enhancing the roll and providing a pronounced sense of weight through effective rebound utilisation. At the front, an aluminium steering block with high-mounted upper arms minimises excessive nose dive, a common issue in rolling machines. This setup offers a balanced reduction in understeer and improved controllability. Additionally, the adjustable kingpin angle allows for realistic camber changes during steering, making low-angle video shooting even more captivating.

Yokomo RD2.0 Graphite Chassis & Top Deck

Yokomo has introduced a new graphite main chassis and upper deck for its RD2.0 1:10 Drift Car. The plates are cut from matte graphite with the 2.4mm thick chassis helping to improve steering response without compromising the operability of the RD2.0. The chassis supports only short-size Li-Po batteries. In addition to the standard holder, the DRB-118LA holder can be used to move the battery mounting position further back. The upper deck is made from a slightly thinner 2.2mm material, designed to balance rigidity with the main chassis. Two additional upper deck posts can be added, allowing the rigidity balance between the front and rear to be adjusted. There are also threaded holes for mounting LTS high-mount battery holders, which allow for settings that take advantage of roll.
