Xtreme Racing T4’20 carbon fibre motor spacer set

Xtreme Racing have introduced their new carbon fibre motor spacer set for the Xray T4 2020 touring car. When running a motor without or just a small chamfer, the motor can may hit the top plate when running a smaller spur gear. The set includes a 1.2mm and a 2.0mm thickness spacer that locates the motor further away from the motor mount and top plate, allowing top use a wider range of gear ratios with specific motors. The spacers are designed to be held into the motor so they are easier to install but can be removed if needed. The set also includes miscellaneous fasteners.

Xray are busy introducing more option parts for their all-new T4 2020 touring car. The latest to hit the light of the day are split 0.25 eccentric suspension holders that enable the driver to have even more control over the lower arm toe-in settings as they allow for 0.25 degree increments. The suspension hangers are machined from high-quality 7075-T6 aluminium and they come black anodised and laser-etched for easy identification. They are usable with the standard kit composite suspension inserts and are available from now on.

Xray XB4’20 large volume centre differential set

Coming from Xray and made for their XB4 2020 1/10th scale 4WD buggy is a large volume centre differential set. Using the diff will increase traction on slippery track while also improving car handing over bumpy sections where it helps to absorb bumps better. The larger oil volume prevents the diff from overheating, extending its lifespan. The super-smooth gear diff set includes a composite case and cover with exchangeable spur gear. The set includes a 81T spur gear with a range of sizes being available to fine-tune the gear ratio. The internal gears are precision-moulded from tough composite material, ensuring long lifespan and super-smooth, efficient operation.

Xray T4’20 1.6mm carbon fibre upper deck

Coming from Xray and made for their all-new T4 2020 mid-motor touring car kit is a 1.6mm carbon fibre upper deck. Thinner than the kit top deck the 1.6mm variant is best used in combination with the aluminium flex or solid chassis as it allows for a softer overall chassis setting compared to the 2.0mm part which helps especially in lower grip conditions where a softer setting can improve steering and rear side bite. Like the original top deck the thinner variant is fully symmetrical and usable with the rear ball bearing or bushing chassis stiffeners to further fine-tune the overall chassis flex.

Xray XB4’20 multi wheelbase aluminium chassis

Coming from Xray and made for the XB4’20 is a multi wheelbase aluminium chassis. Machined from high-quality 2.5mm 7075-T6 aluminium and coming black anodised for surface protection the chassis allows to use two different wheelbase settings, a shorter one for increased car rotation in corners on high-grip tracks while the longer wheelbase setting, that shifts the rear bulkhead towards thew rear, increases stability in low-traction conditions. The chassis also features strategically placed milled-out section to achieve the desired flex characteristics without harming overall stability.

Rebellion-RC T4F Crossflex chassis & shock towers

Rebellion-RC have released first teaser images of their forthcoming new Crossflex aluminium chassis and update carbon fibre shock towers for the popular Xray T4F FWD touring car. Starting with the chassis, it is machined from high-quality aluminium and features Rebellion-RC’s signature Crossflex technology that allows to add brass inserts for the lowers possible centre of gravity while enabling the drivers to fine-tune chassis flex by using different amounts of screw to tighten down the inserts. The chassis alone weighs in at 98g with the fully brass’ed up variant weighing in at 164g. The design of the chassis allows for three different battery positions such as front right inline, centre transversal and rear transversal – the latter has been made possible thanks to additional carbon fibre “wings”. The chassis seen here is a prototype with the actual main plate coming black anodised and laser-engraved.
