Hobbywing XeRun XR10 optional top case

New from Hobbywing for their XeRun XR10 Pro ESC comes this optional top case. A direct replacement for the standard aluminium top case, this new version has a larger heatsink footprint, and so accepts a larger diameter fan than the standard version, as well as featuring taller fins for more surface area to improve cooling. In testing with their team drivers this optional item showed a significant drop in operating temperatures for the ESC which makes it ideal for tracks where the speedo would normally run hotter. Available in anodised black or orange.

VRC Pro reveal new Rally X class

VRC have introduced a new and exciting racing class in VRC Pro, called Rally X (Rally Cross). Based on the popular WRX style rally racing, VRC Pro delivers a completely new r/c racing experience, a true mix of on and offroad racing on special Rally X tracks. Rally X events will also visit existing on-road tracks like Heemstede and Messina in the future with these tracks converted to RallyX style tracks for these events. The 2016 VRC Worlds kick off with Rally X on the X1 track located in a harbor container terminal area. The X1 and MACH-X tracks will be the first tracks available for Rally X. Rally X is a new class of r/c racing that is unique to VRC Pro. Rally car racing does not exist in real life r/c racing, but as it combines on and off-road racing many r/c racers are expected to embrace this spectacular class. Rally X will be released on November 29 when the 2016 VRC Worlds kick off on X1.
