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.

Team Associated introduce NanoSport

New from Team Associated is an all new concept which they call the NanoSport. Consider the game Rocket League, were the purpose is to score goals using a car, but then in real life and you have NanoSport. The package consists of 2 cars, 2 radios, batteries, chargers and the ball or puck to play with. The cars are scaled at 1/32th and feature a body shell that is shaped at the front and rear to allow the user to somewhat control and drive said ball or puck into a goal. Very reasonably priced, the focus is on fun and by including two in the package it ensures that it will be. This would make a nice gift for the holiday season and could be a great stepping stone to get more kids into RC.
