New from Awesomatix is the SPR08 body support set that was developed for the use with all Awesomatix cars. The system will keep the body shell from moving with the chassis, meaning the body will always have same height related to the ground for which allows to run the shell in a lower positions without having to fear body rubbing. The result is improved front end grip and a smoother handling under acceleration. A short video of the system in action can be found here.

Team Associated have introduced black edition MyLaps lap counting transponders. The Hybrid (2-wire) transponder is the same size and features many of the same specs as the RC4 transponder, but it is backwards compatible with older decoder boxes. This transponder does not support car ID numbers. It is compatible with all AMBrc2 decoder boxes and MyLaps RC3 and RC4 decoder boxes. The RC4 (3-wire) transponder is the latest in the line of transponders from MyLaps. The RC4 transponder supports car ID numbers so you can have the same transponder number in all your cars, with a different ID for each. The RC4 transponder also gives additional telemetry data such as voltage to the transponder and transponder temperature each time the loop is crossed. This transponder will only work on RC4 decoder boxes with version 4 firmware or higher.

Revolution Design Racing Products’ new 30g Ultra brass shorty battery weight is machined from high-quality brass material and it comes in a black and golden finish for cool looks. The plate can be used in pretty much every vehicle that accepts shorty-style LiPo batteries and it comes in handy to fine-tune the weight distribution or to add weight when using lightweight low centre of gravity shorty packs. The plate also lowers the car’s overall centre of gravity for improved cornering performance on both low and high grip surfaces.
