Avid TC6.2 aluminium chassis plate

Coming from Avid and made for the Team Associated TC6.2 is an optional aluminium main chassis plate. Machined from 2mm 7075-T6 aluminium the chassis offers higher rigidity than the stock carbon fibre chassis, making it especially useful on high to medium-bite surfaces while allowing the suspension brackets to be mounted lower at the same time. Avid signature “herringbone” cut-outs lower the overall weight and give the chassis a unique look while the narrow 84mm width allows for more ground clearance in corners. The chassis comes black anodised, with machined silver edges and laser-etched Avid logos for easy identification.

X Factory Infinity T5M carbon fibre chassis kit

New from X Factory comes the Infinity T5M carbon fibre chassis kit for the Team Associated T5M stadium truck. Being a direct replacement for the somewhat heavy standard aluminium chassis the chassis kit saves about 75g of weight while adding flex for improved cornering, jumping and performance in bumpy section. The chassis has several advantages over the standard aluminium part in addition to super-light weight. It won’t tweak and the flex is controllable with the side rails and waterfall; depending on which screws are installed and how tight they are, the driver controls how much flex there is and where it occurs. This allows to quickly and easily adjust the truck for many surface conditions, from the highest traction to a blown-out eighth-scale track, from high grip to no grip. The kit includes a the main chassis plate, side rails and small parts for the conversion.

MIP T5M & SC5M Bypass1 Team Tuned shock piston kit

MIP’s Bypass1 Team Tuned shock piston kits are now also available for the Team Associated T5M race and SC5M stadium truck. The design of the shock pistons allows to adjust the compression and rebound separately thanks to a system that used different valves to control the shock piston’s movement. Using the system not only makes for a more planted ride, it also allows to push the vehicle harder while making it easier to drive at the same time. Included with the Team Tuned kit come T5M and SC5M compatible pistons and “fast” green, “medium” blue and “medium-slow” matte valves.
