Schumacher Mi6Evo low 46mm front suspension mounts

Coming from Schumacher and made for the Mi6Evo touring car are new low 46mm front suspension mounts. Available as 1-piece and split variant, the mounts are of a -0.5mm design which lowers the suspension shafts for more front end both and greater setup opportunities. Included in the bags are enough 0.5mm washers to get back to the standard pin height. These parts have recently been used by the team in association with the narrow front hex #U3570 to give a smooth feel yet with good steering. The mounts are available separately from now on.

Rusti Design XB4 carbon fibre option parts

French brand Rusti Design has introduced a range of carbon fibre option parts for the Xray XB4 buggy. Currently available are 4mm front and rear shock towers as well as a 0.8mm carbon fibre rear wing stiffener. The shock towers use the same geometry as the stock parts, however they are of an updated design to make them stand out. As for the wing mount stiffener, the part will be sandwiched between the wing mount and wing, improving the strength of the while area while also ensuring a longer wing life when the action is getting rough.

Xray XB8E 2018 1/8th E-buggy kit

Coming very soon from Xray is the XB8E 2018 1/8th electric buggy kit. The latest edition of the popular buggy received some subtle updates such as a redesigned chassis that offers more clearance between the front wheels and side guards for less on-power tyre rubbing while chamfered front edges make for less dirt pick-up. The chassis is the same as found in the XB8 2018 kit, making most parts interchangeable. Other new features target the rear end of the buggy, such as a new rear shock tower with added shock mounting positions, a new 40 percent lighter wing mount, a new rear chassis brace as well as harder rear A-arms. New front and rear CV-style driveshafts increase the overall traction and refinements such as reinforced steering ball joints, new steering ball composite shims and improved diff O-rings further improve the reliability. The kit is rounded out by a highly aerodynamic body shell and it will hit stores very soon.
