Fenix Ferrari T4 formula body shell

Fenix Racing are busy adding more classic 1970’s Formula 1 body shells to their line up with the 1979 Ferrari T4 being the latest introduction. The faithfully recreated body shell depicts the car campaigned by Jody Scheckter and Gilles Villeneuve, the latter using it in his epic battle with René Arnoux during the French GP. The body is moulded from high-quality polycarbonate material, it fits all Tamiya F103 and F104W style chassis, besides other or course, and it is available from now on.

JConcepts Finnisher Mini-T 2.0 body shell

Coming from JConcepts and made for the Losi Mini-T 2.0 is the new Finnisher truck body shell. The clear body has a slight cab forward, raked windshield and aggressive stance that highlight a performance-oriented core. The front hood scoop allows plenty of clearance for mini front-end geometry and body mounts while smoothing out the front down force area. Front chin spoiler, headlight and grill protect the front-end from unwanted up-drafts during flight while the supplied decals stand-out like an 18-wheeler. Just like the larger trucks, the Mini-T body has all the performance-based features like air-escape passages which can be trimmed by the customer for better “in-flight” characteristics. Recessed windows look heavy and adds to the depth of the Finnisher styling. Heavy bracing between the back of the cab and rear shock tower humps connect the features and add some rigidness to the design. The rear spoiler is included as part of the rear of complete body assembly mould and the package is complete with window masks and a decal sheet.

Schumacher Atom 2 carbon fibre chassis

Schumacher have introduced a new carbon fibre chassis for the Atom 2 GT12 car. The main plate offers more flex and durability compared to the standard steel chassis, making it a great tuning option for low and medium grip tracks. At 65g, the carbon fibre chassis is also 138g lighter than the standard steel chassis.

T-Works mid-motor Tweak Terminator Ver.3

T-Works have introduced their new Tweak Terminator Ver.3 chassis tweak rod specially designed for the use with mid-motor cars. The carbon fibre tool was developed to remove tweak from touring car chassis by allowing to push down both the front and rear bulkheads simultaneously while tightening the upper bulkhead caps. The result is a straighter drivetrain assembly as thus less chassis tweak that can disturb proper car handling. The rod is made of high-quality carbon fibre, it features machined aluminium end caps and a machined hole in the middle section that makes way for the car’s spur gear.

SWorkz release full S12-2 details

Following a couple of teasers and first images of the production-ready kit, SWorkz finally unveiled all details of their forthcoming all-new S12-2 1/10th scale 2WD buggy kit. The car builds on a lightened and hard-anodised 7075 aluminium main chassis whose layout allows for up to six different battery positions while the overall chassis flex can be changed by adjusting the sideguards. In the suspension department the car sports an updated geometry that was developed to provide optimised corner speeds and an easy handling on carpet or very high-bite tracks. The S12-2 uses a 4mm carbon fibre front shock tower and a completely new designed front C-Hub geometry. An adjustable Ackermann plate and carbon fibre steering plates come as a kit standard as do the new gullwing lower arms that provide a lower shock position which leads to a lower centre of gravity.

Rebellion-RC T4’20 Crossflex aluminium chassis

RC-Carbonstore have introduced their new Rebellion-RC Crossflex aluminium chassis for the popular Xray T4 2020 mid-motor touring car. The chassis was developed for the use in medium to high-bite traction conditions with its highly machined design allowing for optimised flex characteristics that can be greatly influenced with the use of up to twelve optional brass inserts that not only add weight in the lowest area of the chassis, but they can also be used to change the overall torsional flex characteristics. The idea was to become able to adjust the weight-balance as well as the flex individually with every insert by using different fixing positions without the need of changing the whole chassis; with a standard chassis being always hard front/rear or soft front/rear, but not hard front/soft rear. When the brass inserts are fixed at a 90 degree angle to the driving direction they almost have no influence to the flex, but if attached using the remaining – cross-positioned – mounting points, the inserts decrease the flex. To make the system work the fixing points for the “hard” setting are 0.3mm lowered to make for a free movement at “flex” setting, and when using the “hard” setting drivers need to insert the included 0.3mm shims to be able to access the desired “hard” flex settings. The chassis is machined from high-quality aluminium, it comes black anodised for wear and looks, features a laser-engraved Rebellion-RC logo and it weighs in at 83g alone and up to 130.9g using the optional brass inserts.
