RDRP B74 aluminium shock towers

New from RDRP are these aluminium front and rear shock towers designed for the B74 4WD off-road buggy. They match the standard kit geometry but are of a heavy duty design for durability and stability, increasing suspension efficiency and precision also thanks to the high-quality aluminium material they are machined off. As they match the stock dimensions they are a direct replacement with no setup changes needed when swapping parts over. In addition the high amount of machining, including silver chamfered edges, makes for a visually pleasing appearance while keeping the parts’ weight low. Both the front and rear tower come black anodised for looks and surface protection.

Serpent 750 optional rear diff housing

Serpent have introduced a new optional rear differential housing made for the European Championship winning Natrix 750 platform. The housing and pulley has been cast from ‘Arrowspace Magnesium’. Claiming to have constructed the perfect metallurgy recipe to ensure the best solution for weight to strength ratio, the use of ‘Arrowspace Magnesium’ creates a much stiffer housing resulting in a much more consistent diff along with less twisting or torque loss through the drive train. This housing actually weighs less than the standard plastic part and is compatible with the standard internal diff parts.

XactRC 3-box set for Ogio 9800

Presenting XactRC, a new company from Robert Morris (KO & Ulti America) and Danny Stojakovic (WCRC) with a focus on making life easier for the RC racer and RC traveler, without breaking the bank. The first project which took 6 months to develop is this ‘3 Box Set’ for the Ogio Rig 9800 series bag. Designed to fit and provide the maximum use of space for organized travel, they have been made from heavy duty 3mm corrugated plastic. The box structure offers durability at the lightest weight possible and each box also includes handles for easy removal and loading into your bag. The smaller box (12x8x3in) sits in between the wheel carrier covers and sit practically flush with them once installed, while the two larger boxes (15x9x6in/ea) give you the most room to organize and place your RC equipment. Utilizing the full width of the bag just before the taper, and to the depth up to the zipper line, there is still room above the zipper line to store your smaller/softer items between the boxes and the bag cover.
