The LRP VTEC Competition 5400 30C is the ultimate power package for all competition rookies. This budget LiPo from the competition car line series features a rated current of 30C. It is therefore powerful and persistent enough to withstand the toughest racing. In addition to the High Density Stacking (HDS) technology and a 3C charge current, the gold coated connectors guarantee lowest contact resistance.

Team Novak introduce the Diablo dual battery brushless system for monster trucks such as the Traxxas E-Maxx or HPI Savage that make use of dual battery power. The 550-size motor and speed controller are designed from the ground up to run from two 2S or 6-cell NiMH batteries as found in 1/10 scale vehicles. The controller features Novak’s own Bash Boost technology that boosts the performance of the motor by advancing the timing at a certain RPM and throttle position. The sensored 550-size motor sports a 5mm shaft and a one-piece, multi-pole sintered Neodymium magnet.

Team Associated announce the LRP A.i. Runner Reverse V2 brushed speed controller. The revised speedo is 100 percent waterproof and features LRP’s exclusive True Automatic technology, that makes push button setup completely unnecessary. The speed control immediately learns the individual transmitter settings right after it is switched on and is perfectly set up for every run with the correct neutral, full- speed forward, and full-speed reverse transmitter settings. The controller also incorporates a build-in fail safe to bring the car to a halt in case of an interference, empty transmitter battery or if the model is outside the radio range.

The Hype Battery Analyzer measures the condition of LiXX and NiXX batteries fast and easy. The unit offers both a balancer connector for 2S to 7S LiXX and a standard JR connector for 4 to 7 cell NiXX packs. Three buttons help to navigate through the menu that allows for measuring the overall voltage, remaining capacity, single cell voltage, lowest cell voltage, highest cell voltage and voltage difference between the highest and lowest cell. The data is displayed on a large LC display.

Reedy’s all new 540-SL and 550-SL sensorless brushless motors are the perfect choice for the enthusiast looking to upgrade his RTR motor with one that increases power and improves reliability. The latest brushless motor technology along with the design and engineering experience that is responsible for 28 World Championship titles has been incorporated into their design. Even though these motors are designed with the hobbyist in mind, they are perfectly suited for track duty.
Team-Powers have released information on the updated V1.1 version of their XPS Speed Control. A pretty standard affair, the unit will support all kinds of sensor/sensorless brushless 540 type motors and its XPS Pro and Sport has Turbo mode function that can support modified and stock mode motors directly. To make it easy for users to adapt the settings to all different track sizes and conditions, it comes supplied with an LCD setting card that allows you to adjust the throttle/brake profile parameters directly. For the throttle profile, it can adjust the power band, punch, timing and turbo boost parameter to control the power delivery to the motor. In order to make the ESC lighter, the lower casing will change to plastic but will keep the aluminium casing on the upper side to disperse heat.
