Merlin McFly X20 carbon fibre topdeck

Merlin McFly have introduced their new topdeck for the Serpent X20 touring car. Designed by Lennart Skornia, the new upper deck has been optimised to improve the flex characteristics of the chassis in high traction carpet conditions as it reduces the overall torsional flex of the chassis both front and rear resulting in easier and more consistent lap times. The flex can be adjusted by either using screws or removing them from the top deck. The parts can be personalised or customised upon request.

Rêve D introduce new SPM titanium screw line

Rêve D from Japan have introduced their new line of super precision machine cut SPM titanium screws. The titanium fasteners are cut from high-quality material for a low weight and exceptional stability and durability and they are available in several variants including 2-piece servo screw sets, 2-piece motor mount screw kits, a 2-piece wing mount set, as well as 4-piece M2x5mm cap and M4x8mm set screw kits. The servo mount screws allow for secure servo mounting as the 4.3mm diameter flange fits snuggly into most servo case lugs, ensuring the servo will not move under load. The 7mm long motor mount screws allow to fasten the motor without using additional shims as they offer a 7mm head section for improved reliability of the whole assembly. The wing mount screws offer a 7.8mm head diameter and they are of a low-profile design, making them ideal for touring and drift car body shells. The M2x5mm cap head screws are usable for most clamp-type wheel hexes, adding bling when the tyres are off while reducing unsprung weight. Last but not least come the M4x8mm set screws that are usable as droop screws in many applications, reducing unsprung weight and adding corrosion resistance.
