PSM S35-3 modular rear hub weight system

Coming from PSM and complimenting their modular steering knuckle weight system is the new modular rear hub weight kit. The balance weight system will be attached to the rear hub and can be equipped with up to five 4.5g weights per side – with two pairs already included in the kit. The additional weight added to the hub creates more pressure to the wheel, which can be an traction advantage in many cases without affecting the suspension setup. Installation is simple with only two screws, making it easy to maintain the hubs or to adjust different weight settings in no time. PSM recommend using this system on tracks where the racing line is dry and dust free.

TSP-Racing T80 BHS & T62 BHM servos

2-Speed from Germany have announced the release of the new TSP-Racing T80 BHS standard and T62 BHM low-profile competition servos. Starting with the T80 BHS, the standard-size servo utilises a brushless motor for a torque of up to 36kg-cm at a speed of down to 0.071s at 8.4V input. Steel gears and an aluminium case make for high durability and best possible heat dissipation in long nitro mains. The low-profile brushless-powered T62 BHM is capable of speeds of down to 0.06s and a torque of 15kg-cm, making it ideal for most 1/10th scale applications. Steel gears and an alloy case ensure rigidity and cool looks. Digital technology provodes strong holding torque, high positioning accuracy and quiet operation. Both servos come equipped with all-black wires for a professional appearance and they will become available by mid-June.

T-Works P12 Evo lightweight turnbuckle & screw sets

Coming from T-Works and made for the Roche P12 Evo 1/12th scale pan car are a lightweight titanium turnbuckle set as well as several screw kits. Starting with the turnbuckle set, the links are made of high-quality 64 grade titanium and the kit consists of toe, camber and servo links that are topped off by a suitable 4mm turnbuckle wrench. Using the lightweight parts will add visual impact while scrubbing overall weight. Also new are a total of four screw sets with the range including a red anodised all-alloy kit, a mixed aluminium and titanium UFO head set, a full UFO head titanium kit as well as a gold colour plated steel screw set. The alloy and titanium sets will greatly reduce overall weight while the gold colour steel screws mainly add visual impact.

Exotek RB7 LiPo cups and mount system

Coming from Exotek is an adjustable LiPo cup battery hold system for the Kyosho RB7 and RB6 buggy and trucks. It allows to adjust the battery quickly, forward or way back, with ease as track conditions call for it. The system securely cradles the battery in place for added chassis flex compared to taping the battery to the chassis and it is lightweight, easy yet secure battery hold in and removal. The carbon fibre construction ensures lightness and makes factory looks with machined alloy mounting bases. The set is for experienced hobbyists as it requires a 1/8”/3.25mm drill bit and some DIY to mount the alloy base in the side rails. Included mounting instructions and a drill template help to achieve the best possible results though.
