Trinity X-Factor spec class brushless motor

Trinity have introduced their all-new X-Factor spec class brushless motor. Of a new design the motor weighs in at only 144g to 148g on average which was achieved by using only six short screws to mount the timing ring and locking end plate systems. X-Flow cooling openings further reduce the overall weight while adding a lot of airflow through the motor. Other features include a new composite sensor board, a 2-piece CNC-machined aluminium can, and 2mm ultra-low resistance solder tabs. A new stator design provides more efficient power and virtually no fade during a run. Available variants upon release will be a 10.5T, built with a TEP1119 12.5×25.5mm high torque rotor while the 25.5T motor uses a TEP1117 12.3×25.5mm rotor. In-between variants for other stock classes will become available at a later date.

Schumacher Honeycomb 1/10th off-road tyres

Schumacher Racing have announced the launch of their all-new Honeycomb 1/10th off-road tyre. Designed especially for low grip surfaces, in particular the hugely popular Schumacher Worksop series in the UK where they race on an indoor sports hall surface. The tyre offers exceptional traction straight out of the packet, hard wearing for fair competition from run to run, throughout the race meeting duration. The tyre is available in yellow compound as 2WD front, 4WD front and 2WD/4WD rear variant both as tyre only and pre-mounts. For the pre-glued versions, these will come on white wheels with a specific blue closed cell foam insert, providing great support to the carcass of the tyre to prevent folding. These inserts will again provide consistent performance from run to run.

Yeah Racing TT-02 RWD drift performance conversion

Coming from Yeah Racing and made for the Tamiya TT-02 entry-level touring car is a drift performance conversion. Designed to achieve a large steering angle, that is required for RWD drifting, the kit’s steering rack has been redesigned around the original chassis so it will be a drop in installation whilst achieving large steering angle with the upgrade steering rack. Combined with the highly adjustable suspension and steering geometry, owners will be able to tune the performance and behaviour to their liking. Adjustable rear universals have been included so that drovers can also adjust track width. Updated DSG dampers with longer ball cups allow for more droop and the possibility to tune the throw of the chassis when going into the corner. The suspension and steering parts are machined from high-quality aluminium and they come blue anodised and laser-engraved for looks.
