Exotek 30mm aluminium fan shroud

Exotek have announced the release of their new 30mm aluminium touring car fan shroud. It was developed to blast the motor fan’s air directly onto and through the motor vents for a maximum cooling effect. Importantly, the shroud positions the fan about 12mm away from the motor can to help prevent the motor magnets from impeding the fan motor and the shroud’s lightweight alloy construction insures factory looks and extra durability. The shroud comes supplied with M2.5×16 screws to attach the fan to the shroud while the whole assembly is mounted using a small square of optional R/C sticky tape, right up against the motor. Not included comes the required 30mm fan.

RC Maker Montecarlo anti-tuck wing mounts

Coming from RC Maker and made for Mon-Tech Racing’s Montecarlo touring car body shell is the anti-tuck wing mounting set. 3-D-printed for a low weight and exceptional durability the mounts prevent body tucks behind the rear wheel arch during racing, as well as inconsistencies on high speed tracks and in windy conditions, causing the bodyshell to vibrate. The new V2 Lite set weighs in at only 5g for the pair, and it only requires one additional M3 screw other than the wing mounting screw to secure the strut behind the wheel arch. Using existing upper wing buttons, owners can screw directly into the strut securing it at the top whilst also securing the body’s wing, making for quick and easy body preparation.

Klinik RC wireless transmitter charging system

Klinik RC have introduced their are wireless transmitter charging system for Futaba, KO Propo and Sanwa transmitters. Designed to work with the most common transmitters on the market, Klinik RC have started with a blank slate and spent several months developing the correct charging pad, receiver coil and micro chip processors for safe, reliable and true balance charging. The designers engineered the charging coil to the smallest sizes possible. Measuring less than 1mm thick over most of the surface ensures it will fit very easily inside any battery compartment. The radio can easily stay topped off during any race day simply by placing on the pad between heats. Installation takes only a few minutes on average with no tools required. All that is needed is an available USB charge port, featured on most chargers and power supplies today, and a balance plug when using a 2S LiPo system. The charging system will work with all common transmitter batteries on the market regardless of capacity, all that is required is a battery with a standard JST-XH balance plug.
