RC Maker carbon chassis balancing tool

New from RC Maker is this lightweight, low profile set of balancing blocks, designed to locate into the small hole/dimple in the bottom of Touring Cars and 1/12th Pan Cars chassis. Taking on a different form to traditional balancing blocks, it more easily slides under the chassis thanks to the long carbon arm. The low friction ceramic silicon nitride ball ensures minimal friction with the chassis, ensuring you can accurately see the balance of your car. The blocks come as a pair, one for the front and rear of the chassis.

RC Maker offroad digital camber & toe gauges

The latest in the line of RC Maker’s digital camber and toe gauges are two variants for 1/10th and 1/8th EP and GP off-road cars. They comprise of two different versions, one for 1/10th EP 2WD and 4WD buggies, and one for 1/8th EP and GP buggies and trucks. This allows to digitally measure the camber, camber gain and toe on all off-road vehicles. Consisting of an aluminium and carbon fibre construction, they are built to very tight tolerances accurate to within 0.01 degrees over a 4-degree range. This ensures precise and replicable camber and toe. The gauge itself features a backlit screen with big numbers for easy viewing in day and night, as well as “auto off” and “zero” functions to be able to zero to the setup board surface no matter what angle it is on. The gauge also features very easily replaceable AAA batteries and comes with a velvet storage pouch to keep it looking and functioning like new.

RC Maker long reach touring car ride height gauge

New from RC Maker is a simplified ride height gauge for touring cars with longer platforms. Outdoor racing with carbon chassis can lead to excessive chassis wear in the exact spots which drivers measure the ride height from. The increased 20mm length of the platforms allows the gauge to reach a more inner, unworn part of the chassis. This gives a much more accurate reading on the ride height, noting the difference between measurements can be from 0.2mm – 1mm depending on how worn the chassis is. The gauge of six platforms ranging from 5mm to 6mm in 0.2mm increments suits all racing conditions with fine tunability. It features a lightweight 7075 aluminium construction with black anodising and white laser etched numbers and logo.
