KO Propo Advantage Capacitor C module

Coming from KO Propo is their new Advantage Capacitor C module for the use with high-performance brushless speed controllers and modified motors. The capacitor module will improve overall motor power and torque especially in the second half of a run when the battery is starting to fade, resulting in better lap times and more consistency. The capacitor module is especially recommended for the use with modified motors, it fits virtually every 1/12th and 1/10th competition brushless speed controller and it is also usable with Stock motors, however KO Propo have a dedicated spec racing capacitor range available that can be discovered here.

Ruddog Glitch Buster receiver voltage stabiliser

Ruddog Distribution’s Glitch Buster receiver voltage stabiliser is a small capacitor unit that is made to be plugged into any free receiver channel. It stabilises the receiver battery voltage and prevents voltage drops that can occur when using power-hungry digital servos and that can lead to radio glitches and thus an uncontrolled vehicle behaviour. It is usable with electric and nitro vehicles and especially recommended when using standard voltage receiver batteries and BEC systems.
