Techra TRF suspension mounts with inserts

Techra have introduced a range of aluminium suspension mounts for Tamiya’s TRF cars. They are machined from high-quality aluminium and utilise a composite insert system, doing away with the need to use individual mounts to create alternative suspension settings. The parts replicate the standard TRF settings, they are usable with a range of Tamiya and TRF cars including the latest 419X and they come in a cool black and blue 2-tone finish with laser-etched markings for easy identification.

R1 Wurks Digital 2 brushless speed controller

Coming from R1 Wurks is the new Digital 2 brushless speed controller. Rated at 200A constant current, the controller is usable with modified motors down to 3.0T but a blinky mode for zero timing spec racing makes it usable for non-boosted classes also. Several boost and turbo functions add to the extensive software features that include power delivery and brake strength settings. The unit also features the A.C.L.C. Advanced Component Level Cooling system, this design allows individual Mosfets to transfer heat directly to the upper heatsink. The power switch-less safety first system forces the user to disconnect the battery when its time to power off the controller, minimising the chances of leaving a live battery from draining. The controller is housed in a black anodised case with a specially designed heatsink and it is adjustable using a digital programming box.
