Xray Rubber Spec conversion set

Xray have released this rubber spec conversion set for the T2’009 and T2R Pro, that sets the motor position more forward without changes to the chassis. By having the motor more forward, it increases on-power steering and makes the car turn more easily and precisely. The set includes top-quality front & rear graphite upper decks, 38T composite solid axle, 38T diff pulley, and forward motor position front & rear belts.

Xray XII Front aluminum active brace

New from Xray for their 1/12th scale pan car chassis, the XII, is this front aluminum active brace. Mounted between the front blocks, the brace prevents tweak as the result of a crash but it also can be used to setup the car. Assembled in 2 different versions, with rubber o-rings or with an aluminium roller, the former makes the brace softer and so increases front traction and steering, while the latter assembly stiffens the front and so decreases steering.

Xray Tweak-free Servo Mount plate

Xray release this tweak-free servo mount plate for their XII that eliminates chassis tweak caused by improper servo mounting. The mount plate is centrally mounted along the chassis centre line while the servo is mounted independently on aluminum stands on the graphite servo mount plate.

Xray 120° Active Diff segments

Xray have released new Active Diff segments, which are CNC-machined from very tough steel and have very precisely-machined “V” ramp grooves with 120° angle for easy disengagement adjustment. The segment is hardened to ensure long life and durability and the segments are laser engraved for easy recognition. The 120° segments give more immediate response both on and off power. On-power the diff becomes very hard immediately (no delay), while off-power the diff becomes free immediately (no delay). Sold in a set of 2, they are ideally suited for use on slippery and/or flat tracks.

Xray LiPo balancing chassis weights

More new items from Xray who have released this set of LiPo balancing chassis weights. Due to the light weight of LiPo batteries, your car may not be perfectly balanced and so these new weights are developed to help balance the left and right sides of the car. The weights are situated in the center of the chassis to keep the weight in the center of the car for better reaction and roll. Batteries are moved outward so they can be more easily inserted and aluminium holders prevent batteries from coming out. Suitable for the T2’008, T2’009 and T2R PRO 6-cell chassis only.
