Reflex Racing TC6/TC6.1 options

Reflex Racing introduce new option parts for the Team Associated TC6 and TC6.1 as well as their own RSD6 conversion. The bell crank system V3 is the latest incarnation of Reflex Racing’s ball-raced TC6 steering assembly and is designed to give smoother, faster steering response as well as increased corner speed. Also available are the steering arms V3 and the steering bridge V3. Also new are the RSD 311 and 315 shock pistons that are manufactured with the biggest diameter possible in order to provide a shock that allows less oil blow-by which allows the car to switch directions faster in high grip situations. Available are the 311 pistons with three 1.1mm holes for hot weather conditions and the 315 pistons with three 1.15mm holes for bumpy track surfaces.

Reflex RSD6 conversion kit

Reflex Racing introduce the RSD6 chassis conversion kit for Team Associated’s TC6 and TC6.1 touring car. The set includes a 82mm wide 2.5mm carbon fibre chassis plate, adjustable CF LiPo battery braces, transverse servo mounting bracket, aluminium dual bellcranks as well as stainless steel and aluminium hardware. The narrower chassis allows for a soft suspension setting for improved bump handling while the dual bellcrank steering makes the car much easier to drive. Additional flex at the bulkheads develops more mechanical grip, especially when running spec tyres. The conversion kit is now available on pre-order, shipping starts end of April, beginning of May.

Reflex RSD Dual Cardan joints for TC6

Dual Cardan joints allow for smoother power transfer in the front drive train of your Touring Car when the wheels are turning. Installing these in your car will allow for the car to drive smoother and have increased steering especially in tight corners. The RSD DCJs from Reflex Racing work with both the TC6 and the TC6.1 so long as you are using a 5x10x3 bearing in the TC6 and a 5x10x4 bearing in the TC6.1. You must also use a Hex Hub adapter with a larger axle hub opening like the ones for the HB TCX, Yokomo BD-5 or 3Racing Sakura line of vehicles. Each package includes 2 DCJ’s.

Reflex Racing RSD parts for TC6

New from Mini-Z specialists Reflex Racing is their latest product line called RSD, which stands for Reflex Suspension Dynamics. RSD will focus on larger scale suspension parts and other accessories and they will start off with updates for the Team Associated TC6. The first TC6 parts are set to arrive in Mid May and they will include vertical ball stud bulkhead caps for the TC6. Much like the other popular TC’s out there, these shock tower mounts give you infinite roll center adjustments. You have the option of the extra long link or a second hole which makes the camber link slightly longer than the shock tower mounting positions. A Tuned Spring Set comes with the ideal spring rates for your AE TC6. With the advent of LiPo and Brushless, cars now have a lower polar movement inertia and softer spring rates are necessary. The advantage of these springs is that they were designed for the TC6. The size is perfect for the shocks and the rates are optimized for on track performance. Finally there are popular 1.0, 1.5mm pistons, machined out of delrin in order to allow smoother shock operation and of course ease of use, as no drilling or shaving must be done to these to make them work flawlessly. These pistons will work on any shock that uses a 10mm diameter piston with a 3mm shock shaft.
