SkyRC Ultimate Duo 400W AC/DC multi charger

SkyRC have introduced their Ultimate Duo 400W AC/DC multi-chemistry charger with dual charge outputs. Thanks to smart power distribution capabilities the charger offers up to 400W of charge power in total with channel 1 being the 400W unit while channel 2 provides up to 200W. On top of this the device is equipped with two adjustable voltage 150W DC outputs that provide up to 10A of current, ideal to power motor testers, tyre lathes and more. The charger is usable with up to 7S LiXX batteries including the new LiHV cells and delivers up to 20A charge current. Also part of the package are two internal balancers as well as 4-button operation and one backlit display per channel. A temperature controlled fan unit keeps the temperatures at bay even in hot ambient temperatures or under heavy load.

SkyRC Toro X8T V2 1/8th truggy brushless motor

SkyRC have introduced their new Toro X8T V2 brushless motor for 1/8th scale E-truggies. The 6-pole 1950kv motor is of a 18-slot stator design for improved torque while high-purity copper windings and ultra-thin 0.2mm stator laminations make for high efficiency, resulting in reduced heat built-up and longer run times. The sensorless motor utilises a machined T6 billet aluminium can with heatsink ribbing and it measures 42.2x74mm including said heatsink.

SkyRC Toro X8 V2 1/8th scale brushless motor

SkyRC have introduced their new Toro X8 V2 electric brushless motor for 1/8th scale applications. The sensorless motor is housed in a CNC-machined T6 billet aluminium heatsink can and it is of a 6-pole, 18-slot stator design for a high-torque, high-power output. Utilising super high conductance silicon wires, a sintered neodymium magnet rotor and high purity copper windings the motor also offers high efficiency for low operation temperatures. The X8 V2 is available in a 2100kv and a 2400kv variant soon.
