A specially-shaped front end ensures fast corner entry and consistent steering throughout the corner while the rear end makes for good stability and traction.

Duratrax 32-tip multi-driver

Coming soon from Duratrax is the 32-tip multi-driver tool. It includes 32 of the most needed tips for RC vehicles and utilises a blue anodised aluminium handle that holds 15 short-shank, double-tip bits while another bit stores in the “in use” position. It comes with nine tip options for Torx screw heads and the bit shanks lock onto the adjustable-length shaft with a push, for easy attachment and release. The sizes are clearly marked on each bit and a rotation of the handle’s end cap remove the one that is needed. The no-roll design keeps the multi-driver in place and beside the Torx-tipped bits the wrench also includes an array of slot and hex bits.
