VRP MBX8 aluminium & carbon fibre shock towers

Coming from Vision Racing Products and made for the new Mugen MBX8 1/8th scale buggy is a range of aluminium and carbon fibre shock towers. Each tower is precision CNC cut in house at VRP and by following the exact geometry of the original stock towers and thanks to optimised material distribution, the towers are made to look great and provide exceptional durability. Both rear towers feature a machined “M” in the centre to add a special touch of bling and the 7075 aluminium front and rear towers are black anodised and re-opted with silver edges for that distinct VRP look.

Very hard yet durable the graphite-reinforced parts are less flexible than the medium and hard compound hubs, making them ideal especially for high to very high traction condition where the parts can improve handling and predictability. The C-hubs are available individually for the left and right hand side of the vehicles.

Team Associated ProSC10 RJ/Rockstar & AE Team RTR

Coming from Team Associated are the ProSC10 RJ/Rockstar and AE Team 1/10th 2WD RTR short course trucks. The truck features a rear motor short-course chassis that utilises many of the same parts from the widely successful RC10SC5M platform. Adjustable aluminium big bore coil-over shocks, a sealed-gear differential, and heavy-duty CVA driveshafts are all features that come standard. A powerful water-resistant Reedy electronic speed controller and 3300Kv electric motor power the ProSC10 for high-speed fun. To handle the power, the truck comes equipped with realistic wheels and multi-terrain tyres specifically made to handle any off-road condition. A 2.4GHz 2-channel radio system featuring a DVC (Dynamic Vehicle Control) receiver also comes standard. Protected by the water-resistant enclosed receiver box, the DVC system improves stability in all terrain conditions by automatically counter-steering when the vehicle starts to slide. With a metal-gear high-torque Reedy servo rounding out the electronics package, the ProSC10 is nothing short of a success in RC off-road racing. The truck is available in two body shell variants, one resembles RJ Anderson’s RJ/Rockstar truck while the other comes in the AE Team livery. Both will become available by March as RTR and also as full RTR combo variants including a Reedy Compact Balance charger and Reedy 7.4V LiPo battery.
