Racing Performer DX1 Type R titanium shaft motor

Yokomo have also introduced the newest version of their Racing Performer DX-1 Type-R, which is their best-selling motor for drift users. This spec features a lightweight and high quality titanium rotor shaft to further enhance the performance of the Type-R. A lighter rotor makes the throttle very smooth, while the optimised magnetic force improves high speed performance while working well with the boost and turbo functions of the speed controller. Compared to steel shafts, it is more resistant to overheating which can maximise efficiency even when running for long periods of time. In addition, by smoothing the descent of rotation when letting off the throttle, you get the feeling of rolling in the corner, which enhances control during cornering.

Maclan Racing DRK 160 Drag Race ESC

New from Maclan Racing, the DRK 160 Drag Race ESC is specifically designed for the extremely competitive and popular no-prep drag racing segment. The most exciting part of this ESC is its all-new 3-stage launch power control software. It is operated by a 32-Bit super fast CPU with an all new algorithm specifically designed for this class. The software was inspired by the full scale drag race cars with extremely complicated processing for the smoothest launch traction control, yet most powerful acceleration. Thanks to the powerful 32-Bit CPU the ESC is able to remap the throttle curve in 3 stages precisely, all you need to do for the win is to focus on the starting signal for the full throttle launch.
