Raceform EB410 wing raiser with diffusor

Coming from Raceform and made for Tekno RC’s EB410 buggy is a high wing mount with under wing diffusor. The translucent part was designed to raise the somewhat low wing mounting area of the buggy to make it usable for most aftermarket wings as it allows for enough clearance for the tyres even under full suspension compression. In addition its design with an integrated under-wing diffusor will create additional downforce which can be beneficial on low-grip tracks or when additional stability in high speed corning is needed. The mount is CNC machined from high-compact polycarbonate, at 8 grams it is both lightweight and strong and its larger surface area also improved wing life.

Coming from Raceform and made for the Tekno EB410 1/10th 4WD buggy are new polycarbonate front and rear shock towers as well as an electronic tray. Starting with the shock stays, the parts are machined from 6mm thick high-quality polycarbonate and they are a direct replacement for the standard aluminium shock towers. The race proven material will flex enough to protect the gearboxes and shock standoff while being sturdy enough to keep its geometry during normal use. The shock towers are available in a set of three, containing the front tower, a standard and a -2mm rear tower.

Raceform Lazer 1/10th buggy tyre gluing jig

Raceform’s Lazer buggy tyre gluing jig is now also available in a variant for 1/10th buggy dirt tyres. Compact and light of weight, the jig features a clincher roller that peels off the tyre bead while automatically aligning the bead after applying the glue and further rotating the tyre. The overall design makes for extremely convenient operation while an anti-slip under site allows for a secure stand on the pit table or workbench. An anti see-saw effect fastener knob keeps the wheel flat to the disc during gluing the inside portion of the tyre. The smart design greatly reduces rotation, making the process even faster. The tool is machined from high-quality plexiglas, it takes all standard 1/10th off-road rims and dirt tyres and comes with various stacker discs to adjust the deck height for all tyres of wheels, as well as two angled needle applicators and a decal sheet.
