Capricorn titanium & carbon options

Capricorn have released a number of new items for the Lab 1/10th and 1/8th scale chassis’. First up for the Lab CO2 are these new titanium front and rear drive axles which are half the weight of the original part but similar hardness. For the 1/8th scale there is a new flex radio plate, the result of their collaboration with 9-time world champion Lamberto Collari. Also for the same car are new front and rear carbon fibre shock towers with additional holes to achieve a more lay down shock position.

T-Work’s Savox aluminium servo top cases

New from T-Work’s are these aluminium servo top cases for the Hi Volt line of Savox servos.  Built specifically for the SC-1267MG and SC-1268MG they are made from high grade 7075-T6 aluminium with dual brass bushings for both gear pins providing the best possible fit and heat dissipation properties plus the extra strength will ensure racers will never again break a servo ear during a race. To solve the problem of Savox servo ears being positioned differently to Sanwa or Futaba, T-Work’s have also released a second type of the Alum Top Cap with the sole difference being the servo ears are placed in a similar position to Sanwa or Futaba servos allowing drivers to maintain the same steering exponential when running between Savox or other similar Sanwa/Futaba servos.

Avid Team Associated carbon fibre hub towers

Avid introduce these carbon fibre hub towers for Team Associated vehicles that use the rear blue aluminium hubs. Usable on the B4.1, B44.1 or T4.1 they feature a 2-in-1 high and low outer pivot location allowing, without changing parts, to run the standard kit upper link location ‘A’ tower, or by dropping the outer pivot height by 2mm with a ground rear u-brace like the ‘C tower. Both adjustments are included on the same part. The towers are cut from 2.5mm carbon material, give additional wheel clearance and include two 3/16” aluminium locking nuts.
