SWorkz have introduced a set of 6mm alloy axle inserts for the S35-3 series of vehicles. The parts directly replace the original plastic inserts and increase durability with the lightened 6x12x4mm ball bearing. Using the parts will also make for a more stable steering response and increased ball bearing life. The 4-piece sets fits the S35-3, S35-3E, S35-GT and S35-GTE.
European SWorkz distributor MW RC Cars has released first renderings of the carpet edition S14-3 1/10th 4WD buggy that is currently under development. Together with the S14-2, that was designed for dirt tracks, the S14-3 will complete SWorkz’s line of competition buggies with the kit being currently track tested and it is expected to hit stores soon. We bring you more information on the buggy as soon as they surface.
Coming from SWorkz and made for the SPower S7 Evo II and O.S. Speed Spec II/III and B2102 engines is the new LPF cooling head. The heatsink is 24mm lower than the standard version while the weight is also reduced by 10g which results in a dramatically lowered centre of gravity. The outcome are improved cornering performance, increased stability and less chances of damaging the heatsink in the event of a crash. Thanks to the larger diameter of the heatsink the cooling performance is the same compared to a standard, tall cooling head.

Coming from SWorkz and made for the S12 and S14/104 series of 1/10th off-road vehicles is a 3-piece set of carbon fibre slipper clutch pads. They are made of high-quality fibre material and offer a two-sided design with one being flat and the other offering a machined turbo fan apperance. Using the pads will allow for finer slipper clutch adjustment, improved torque transfer and less fading during the run. The pads fit the S12-1 2WD and S14-2/S104 Evo 4WD vehicles.
