Yokomo touring car body post markers

Yokomo have introduced their new body hole markers for 6mm touring car body posts. The markers help to easily and conveniently locate the body post positions on both clear and painted bodies. Aluminium tubes are placed on all four body posts and the body is placed onto them with four magnets marking the individual front and rear body post positions that then can be marked using a fine line permanent marker prior to drilling. The strong magnetic force of the magnet prevents the body from moving on the markers for even greater precision and the markers come in sets of four in a convenient carrying case.

RDRP YZ-4 SF alloy steering plate & bellcranks

Revolution Design Racing Products from Germany has introduced two new aluminium option parts for the Yokomo YZ-4 SF off-road buggy in the form of an aluminium steering plate and aluminium steering bell cranks. Starting with the steering plate, the part is machined from high-quality 7075-T6 aluminium and it replaces the standard carbon fibre part with the alloy plate, improving stability and steering precision. In addition the updated design does away with the kit’s sloppy bushing and shim construction in favour of highly precise ball bearings which results in less play, more precision, an overall improved steering feeling and virtually no wear. The steering plate comes black anodised to match the remainder of the buggy’s alloy parts.

Vigor BD8-2018 & T4’18 tweak-free battery mounts

Coming from Vigor are new tweak-free battery mounts for the Yokomo DB8-2018 and Xray T4’18 touring car kits. Constructed from carbon fibre and aluminium the mounts do away with the need to use fibre-reinforced tape to secure the battery pack in favour of multi-piece battery locators and retainers that only slightly tough the pack, allowing the battery to “float” to some degree which will avoid unwanted chassis tweak. The design of the Yokomo mount allows to shift the battery pack forth and back while the offset alloy inserts of the Xray specific kit also allow for some left-right weight adjustment.
