Coming from Reedy is the new 5300mAh shorty LiPo battery pack. With its high capacity and 70C rated cells the battery is ideal for demanding modified and stock racing applications alike. It utilizes a protective hardcase of “standard” shorty dimensions, 4mm socket connectors for a low resistance and it complies with ROAR, EFRA, BRCA and IFMAR specifications.
Coming from Reedy is the WolfPack 7.4V Shorty LiPo battery pack. Made using 25C cells and offering a light weight of 207g the 3800mAh pack is ideal for all 2WD applications. The ROAR-approved pack utilises a protecting hardcase, 4mm power and a 2mm balancing connector and it is available now.

Team Associated have introduced the Reedy LiPo battery weight set for 1/10th 2WD buggies and all other vehicles that use LiPo shorty battery packs. Each set contains one 0.5mm/17.8g weight and one 1mm/38.8g weight which can be used together or separately, helping to add weight while reducing the vehicle’s centre of gravity for improved handling and stability on high-grip surfaces.
Team Associated have introduced the Reedy SC1000-DB sensorless brushless speed controller. Splash-proof for maximum durability, its robust design installs in most 1/8th buggies, truggies, and monster trucks and it comes pre-wired for two batteries and features individual low voltage cut-off circuits for protection from over-discharge and improved safety. On the motor side of things the speedo comes factory-wired with 4mm gold-plated connectors.

Team Associated have introduced the Reedy Zappers high-voltage and high-performance battery packs. Originally referring to Reedy’s proprietary NiMH voltage enhancement technology, the new LiHV batteries offer a 7.6 nominal voltage which means that, with a suitable charger, the battery can be safely charged to 8.7V or 4.35V/cell. This makes the batteries ideal for outlaw racing series or bashing. When the typical 8.4V or 4.2V/cell charging limit is enforced, the battery still offers a significant advantage thanks to a flatter discharge curve, which results in more voltage deeper into the race. For those who race where approved batteries are required, 7.4V Zappers packs are available and feature the same discharge curve characteristics as the 7.6V versions. Each pack features a high-quality, durable hardcase that helps prevent damage while heavy-duty 5mm socket connectors keep power-robbing resistance to a minimum. Pass-through sockets reduce jumper wire lengths in applications where two batteries are utilised. The 7.6V packs are available as 6000mAh (277g) and 8000mAh (329g) variant while the 7.4V packs come in 5600mAh (277g) and 7400mAh (329g) specification.

Team Associated have introduced their long-awaited 1216-C2 dual AC/DC competition battery charger. Thanks to a high-performance microprocessor and specialised operating software, the device is versatile, easy to use, and it incorporates many advanced features for hobbyists, casual enthusiasts, or hardcore racers alike. Simultaneous charging of two LiPo/LiFe/LiIo/NiMH/NiCd/Pb batteries at up to 12A is possible thanks to a powerful integrated power supply. Storage of up to 10 different charge profiles per channel allows for easy access to the most commonly used settings. Terminal Voltage Control of 4.00V to 4.23V per cell gives racers an added option to regulate power output and calibrate voltage while 1S Balance Mode results in accurate voltage readings when charging 1S batteries. In addition to its long list of powerful features, the 1216-C2 features a compact footprint and front-facing outputs to maximise pit space.

Team Associated have introduced two new Reedy competition servos. The RS1806A Hi-Speed (0.06s/18.4kg-cm) and RT2207A Hi-Torque (0.07s/21.2kg-cm) Digital Competition servo were designed with 1/8th buggy and truggy racing in mind as their all-aluminium case reduces operating temperatures while increasing rigidity and strength. Durable precision metal gear drivetrain and advanced microprocessor improve vehicle control and on-track performance while the high-voltage compatibility allows the use of 2S LiPo receiver batteries, resulting in high speeds and maximum torque. The servos are equipped with powerful coreless motors, they are water and dust resistant and come with aluminium mounting hardware and an aluminium clamping servo horn.
Reedy’s Sonic 540-M3 brushless motors are now also available in short stack 10.5T and 21.5T variants. A competition-proven short stack stator, wound with pure copper magnet wire and low-resistance collector rings, walks the edge of legality in exchange for maximum power output and RPM. Despite being designed for 1S applications, short stack motors can, under the right circumstances, create a power advantage in 2S applications such as Formula and 4WD GT classes. Like all 540-M3 motors, these new models feature a three-piece, CNC-machined can to reduce weight while improving airflow, component fit, and bearing alignment. Heavy-duty silver-plated solder tabs reduce resistance, feature a cupped profile to aid soldering, and are well supported to prevent internal connections from fatiguing over time. A balanced, high-strength sintered rotor provides fade-free performance thanks to improved manufacturing processes. Both models meet ROAR, EFRA, and IFMAR specifications.
