Vampire Racing Type AB+ V2 update package

Vampire Racing Type AB+ V2 update package

Vampire Racing have designed a new V2 update package for the Type AB+ V2 brushless modified motors. All new motors supplied from now will include this update already in the box, and end users who have an ‘old spec’ Type AB+ V2 motor will receive this package totally free of charge. The update package includes a new end bell ring, timing plate, timing pate screws with captive sprung washers and new motor can screws. The timing plate is made of a new tougher material, it features an internal timing pip that will not allow the timing to be altered past its desired and designated settings, it also features beefier cap head screws with sprung washers for a more secure and solid fitting and new screws are also provided for motor can assembly. Customers who wish to upgrade their existing motors are asked to contact their local dealer in order to receive the free update package.
