Reflex Racing YRX12 alloy chassis & TC7 hard bumper

Coming from Reflex Racing are an aluminium main chassis and lower pod plate kit for the Yokomo YRX12 as well as a hard wide bumper and bumper brace kit for the Team Associated TC7.1. Starting with the Yokomo parts, the chassis and lower pod plate were designed for racing on high-bite CRC black carpet and they will increase stability and enhance traction under high-bite conditions. Both parts are machined from high-quality 7075-T6 aluminium, they come black anodised and with machined silver edge details.

Reflex Racing RR12T2 conversion & geometry update kit

Reflex Racing have introduced the new RR12T2 conversion kit for the RR12V2 and the Team Associated 12R5.2 as well as an geometry update set for the RR12V2. Starting with the conversion, it will take the RR12V2 to new RR12T2 specifications and it includes a 7075-T6 aluminium chassis, 2mm quasi weave lower pod plate, a new rear motor mount brace as well as revise geometry motor pod and pod sliders compatible with a motor fan. Also included is a revised geometry shock mount, new stronger rear droop plate, symmetrical servo mount a well as a new 7075-T6 unimount with silver chamfered edges and a left side axle spacer. The kit will also work with the Team Associated 12R5.2 and it is available now.

Reflex Racing RX4-16 chassis & T4 shock towers

Coming from Reflex Racing and made for the Xray T4 touring car are the RX4-16 quasi carbon fibre chassis and 4mm carbon fibre shock towers. Starting with the chassis plate, the RSD RX4-16 was developed for the Xray T4 and it is made from RSD’s own quasi isotropic 2.0mm carbon fibre for more rigidity, translating into increased response, grip and a lower centre of gravity over the stock unit. The shape profiles for the chassis have been developed over the past year with a focus to provide a more consistent car feel and less tyre overheating over a run. The design moves the flex to the bulkhead areas which results in a car that rotates faster and harder all while maintaining a higher level of grip. Additionally the chassis has been made completely symmetrical so that the left to right flex of the car can be equalised as much as possible.

RSD T4 hardened spool outdrives & 30mm fan mount

Reflex Racing have introduced hardened SKD-11 tool steel blade-less spool cups for the Xray T4 and a universal fan mount for the Xray T4 and Yokomo BD7-2016. Starting with the spool cups, the parts are machined from tool-grade SKD-11 steel, usually used to cut carbon steel and stainless steel, so these cups are made to last while being smooth and super-tough. On top of this the cups look pretty trick too and they come in packs of two.

RSD RX12 2017 aluminium chassis conversion kit

Reflex Racing have introduced the all-new RX12 2017 aluminium chassis conversion kit for Xray’s X12 1/12th scale pan car. Made to maximise the performance of the ’14, ’15 or ’16 specific car to match the higher grip conditions of today’s carpet racing, the kit is designed around a transverse-specific 2.0mm 7075-T6 aluminium chassis and 2.0mm quasi-isotropic carbon fibre lower pod, which has been designed to lower the CG of the car to the max, by using thinner material and slightly heavier hard-anodised 7075-T6 Thyssen Krupp aluminium alloy for the main plate. The kit gives the option of a revised, rearward centre shock position, allowing for quicker steering response and reduced body roll, or the traditional Xray X12 shock placement. Additionally, the conversion also includes a revised motor position that shifts the motor 2mm to the right for better side to side pod balance and the wheelbase has been reduced to 200mm for better entry and mid corner steering. Lastly, in order to move the shock further back, a revised servo mount plate is included in the kit to take advantage of the revised geometry by moving back the front mounting position as well. The chassis comes hard-anodised in black with silver chamfered edges for the premium look people dig these days.

Reflex Racing introduce new TC7 & TC6.2 options

Reflex Racing have new option parts for the Team Associated TC7 and TC6.2 touring cars available. First up is an alloy chassis for the TC7 that was custom designed around the latest AE Platform to maximum performance especially on the new CRC and ETS black carpets. The chassis moves the flex points away from the centre of the chassis and towards the bulkheads for more rotation, steering and stability which translates into faster lap times and a more consistent car that is also easier on tyres over a full run. The chassis is now also narrower, allowing for lower ride heights and less rubbing on the newer CRC Carpet which calls for higher ride heights. The 81mm wide chassis is cut from 7075-T6 ThyssenKrupp aluminium alloy, it includes carbon fibre battery brackets and mounting hardware.

RSD RR12V2 & T4 aluminium main chassis

Following the 7075-T6 aluminium main chassis set for the Xray X12’16, Reflex Racing also introduced a specific variant for the RR12V2 as well as an alloy chassis for the Xray T4 line of touring cars. Starting with the RR12V2 alloy chassis kit, the set includes a black anodised and strategically milled chassis that ups the weight of the car by roughly 20g which in turn can be reduced by using lightweight electronics, screws and accessories. The chassis was developed to bring the centre of gravity as low as possible and it also includes a matching, thin carbon fibre rear lower pod plate.

RSD X12’16 aluminium chassis conversion kit

RSD X12'16 aluminium chassis conversion kit

Available soon from Reflex Racing is the RSD aluminium chassis conversion kit for the Xray X12’16 1/12th scale pan car. Cut from 7075-T6 aluminium and coming black anodised and with machined silver edge details the chassis weights roughly 80 gram so the car will be around 20 gram heavier than in stock trim but the use of lightweight electronics, screws and accessories will help to bring the car near to minimum weight again to achieve maximum performance. Include in the chassis set, that was designed to bring the car’s centre of gravity as low as possible, is also a thin lower pod plate to match the chassis’ reduced thickness. The conversion kit will become available by mid-March.
