Schelle B5M & TLR 22 3.0 vented motor plates

Schelle B5M & TLR 22 3.0 vented motor plates

Coming from Schelle Racing Innovations are lightweight vented motor plates for the Team Associated B5M and the TLR 22 3.0. Cut from high-quality aluminium and coming in an anodised finish the motor plates offer minimised weight, increased airflow, and maximised rigidity. The unique vent slits are machined partial depth on the back side of the motor plate to create two tiny slits in the plate. These slits will keep air flowing through, and everything else outside and the plates are fully machined to keep them from warping under extreme stress and heat and they weight in at only 12.95g for the B5M and 13.8g for the TLR plate. They are available as B5M 3 or 4-gear variant in black or blue colour and as black or hard anodised finish version for the 3-gear TLR 22 3.0.

Schelle B5M Pro Built ball differential

Schelle B5M Pro Built ball differential

Coming soon from Schelle Racing Innovations is the Pro Built ball differential for the Team Associated B5 series vehicles. Pro built by Nick Wautlet, the diff uses Schelle 3/32″ tungsten carbide differential balls along with a caged ceramic thrust bearing for buttery smooth diff action. It also uses genuine Team Associated outdrives, diff gear, rings, and the T-nut assembly and it is broken-in using a drill to seat parts and pre-groove the diff rings. The diff comes ready-to-run but needs to be set as it is stored loose to prevent damaging the rings.

Last but not last is the chassis protector skin set. It includes a pre-cut vinyl protector decal for the buggy’s aluminium chassis as well as two additional replacement rear skids.

Schelle D413 +4mm alloy chassis & B5M C-mount

Schelle D413 +4mm alloy chassis & B5M C-mount

Schelle Racing Innovations have new option parts for the HB D413 and the Team Associated B5M buggy available. Starting with the aluminium stretch chassis, the +4mm longer wheelbase gives the car a longer footprint, reducing the pitching weight transfer that can cause the car to “3 wheel” and pick up a rear tyre in the turns. Also in the air, the car with the longer chassis is less sensitive and the car is also meant to be easier to control and drive hard without getting upset on braking, turn-in, or corner exit. Also, at 153g total weight the added 53g of weight and stiffness created by the alloy material stabilise the car on high grip. The chassis is recommended for indoor astro, carpet, and high-grip clay and the set includes the 2.5mm 7075 chassis, front top deck, instructions, chassis protector, O-ring dogbone spacers, and a Schelle mini decal.
