Bezerk P10 plus 10mm carbon fibre chassis

Bezerk RC has introduced an option chassis for the Roche P10 pan car. The chassis has 10mm added to the wheelbase to aid in high speed stability and the design supports a centrally mounted shorty battery. The pack has been lowered 2.5mm into the 3mm chassis to lower the centre of gravity to give a better change of direction while the 3mm chassis adds some stiffness over the whole chassis to give a precise feel on track. In addition the servo position has been moved over 1.5mm to better centre some servos. Like all Bezerk products the chassis can be customised to suit the driver’s needs.

Roche Rapide F1 front body post mount

Roche have introduced a front body post mount for their Rapide F1 series of cars. Machined from aluminium and coming in a two-tone red and black finish, the mount is compatible with most front wings and since the front body post is fastened to the plate – and not the front wing – it is not necessary to use different body shells when swapping front wing brands. Included with the mount comes suitable mounting hardware.
