Hobbywing have announced the release of their new XeRun V10 G3R electric brushless stock motor. Building on the proven V10 G3 the “R” variant offers further enhanced performance thanks to a 13.3 percent increase in torque, a 6.5 percent increase in RPM and up to 8.6 percent of overall power gain. In addition the internal resistance could be lowered by 11 percent while efficiency was increased by 6 percent, resulting in greatly reduced operation temperatures. At 139g the motor is also very low of weight – thanks to a highly machined aluminium heat-sink design can – making chassis balance adjustments a lot easier. The ROAR and EFRA spec motor is available in 13.5T to 25.5T stock winding variants with the 13.5T to 21.5T motors utilising a 7-12.5×25.2 rotor with optional rotors being available to fine-tune the motors’ power characteristics.

Bezerk from Australia have announced the release of new carbon fibre main chassis for the Yokomo YRX12 2019 and Roche P12 Evo 1/12th scale pan cars.

Over to the P12 Evo chassis, the main plate also offers increased flex over the standard part, however it is additionally available in stiff weave carbon for high grip conditions. A suitable lower motor pod plate is available from Bezerk as well.
New from Vision Racing Products are their universal diff tray and diff stand.
