T-Works have introduced a 4-piece set of titanium king pink screws for the Tekno EB410 buggy. The fasteners are made of high-quality 64 grade material for a low weight and exceptional corrosion resistance. Using the king pins in place of the original parts will reduce unsprung mass for increased suspension efficiency and an overall lower weight.

RPM have introduced their all-new Pit-Pro Extreme car stand that has numerous adjustability options to fit virtually any 1/12th to 1/8th scale chassis and more. The infinitely adjustable support arms can sweep out to roughly 155mm all the way in to 54m). There are also 28 different mounting points for the support posts, giving owners added versatility to make sure their ride sits exactly how you want it to sit on the stand. The adjustable support arms sit on top of a swivel platform that allows the vehicle to rotate a full 360 degrees and tilts by as much as 45 degrees. Tilt angle is easily locked down with the included wing nut. All this sits atop an ultra stable base, with four load-spreading legs that can be moved to any position required. For transportation and storage the top easily slips off without any tools and the legs fold in for easy and compact storage. The pit stand is sold with all necessary hardware and comes complete with twelve soft, self-adhesive, slip free pads for the legs and the adjustable arms to prevent the vehicle and Pit-Pro Extreme from moving from exactly where you put it.

Coming from Team Powers are their new Actinium V3 540-class electric brushless motors. Compared to the previous V2.0 motors the new generation features upgraded Neodymium sintered rotors for a stronger magnetic field and thus increased torque while reducing power fading towards the end of the run. Also new for the V3 is an updated stator design for increased top speed and increased efficiency. Furthermore does a new stator and wiring technique for the 10.5T to 25.5T stock motors lower the internal resistance b about 15 to 20 percent. The motors are housed in a newly designed can with large cooling openings that lower the weight by ten percent while allowing the motor to run cooler by about ten to 15 Degrees Celsius. All motors come equipped with highest-grade ball bearings, doing away with the need to use ceramic bearings and a mixture of titanium and aluminium stator screws provides both strength and efficient power.

As part of their new Summer 2018 line-up Redcat Racing have introduced the Camo TT trophy truck and Camo X4 rock racer 1/10th scale RTR vehicles. The Camo line utilises a new chassis design that offers the realistic driving characteristics of a full sized desert racer thanks to its 4-link suspended, solid rear axle and independent front suspension for a true desert and rock racing experience. The Camo TT and X4 are ready to run once owners supply the required batteries and charger and they are 2S LiPo-ready. The Camo was designed to be an all around great performer, as well as a stunning display piece while not in use. The TT’s realistic cockpit seats a driver and navigator, strapped in safely, with the spare tire captured inside the realistic roll-cage directly behind them. The scale body design allows the roll-cage to be seen as the Camo TT screams across the desert terrain while the X4 sports a full roll cage, and a detailed cockpit with scale driver and navigator. Additional scale details, like the fire extinguisher, round off the X4’s scale appearance. The aggressive off-road tyres grip the toughest terrain, and look awesome doing it. The unique horizontal tread design work well on both loose and hard surfaces alike. Both vehicles will hit stores this August.
