New from Wallie Builds for the RC8B3.2 come these 5mm thick blue carbon front and rear shock towers and matching 2.5mm thick 1-piece wing button. The rear shock tower has two sets of holes for the wing mount which allows for 0mm, +8mm or +16mm wing heights. Another feature is that, if the +8mm wing mount is unavailable, you can use the 0mm wing mount in the upper holes and get the +8mm height.
Exotek Racing have introduced a lot of new items for the Associated DR10, starting with this lightweight 2mm carbon fibre ESC tray set. It allows for easier mounting of larger esc’s and stock esc’s in a centrally balanced location and comes with alloy posts and hardware. Next up is a heavy duty alloy servo mount that makes for easier servo install and removal thanks to the 1-piece design that will always match the chassis holes. There is also a precision machined premium titanium front axle set for the DR10. At only 4.5 grams per pair, these axles are perfect for reducing rotating mass for quicker acceleration. A rounded and angled hex profile also makes wheel installation extra quick and easy. Finally there is a hard anodised 7075 alloy idler gear for the DR10. This is much stronger than the stock plastic idler gear but not indestructible so it is important to use black or white grease on the gears and reapply frequently to prolong its life along with proper slipper adjustments.

Improve durability and throttle/brake feel with this new Factory Team aluminium clamping throttle servo horn. Machined from high quality 7075 aluminium and laser-etched with Factory Team branding, this steering servo horn will add peace of mind knowing there will be no DNF caused by breakage, while throttle and brake feel are improved due to the reduced flex. The clamping design also ensures a secure fit to any servo with matching spline count. Available for 23T and 25T splines.

Following on from the announcement of the ONG brand, a collaboration between Italian company RC Project and current 1/8th Offroad World Champion Davide Ongaro, the first items have now hit the market. The two new products to be released are brass weights for the Associated RC8B3.1/3.2. The black coated weight perfectly integrates into the car without touching any components and leave the necessary space to allow the chassis the flex freely. Available in 30gram and 15gram versions they are easily fixed to the chassis using the two M3 threaded holes.
