Muchmore Racing have announced the release of their Fleta ZX V2 Spectre 25.5T outlaw brushless motor. Designed to produce maximum performance the motor is not ROAR or EFRA legal, however it can be used in so called “outlaw” classes that only restrict winding numbers. A patented rotor design along with a short stack equates to 35 percent more power compared to traditional stock motors while the overall design of the motor greatly reduces the internal resistance. The motor utilises a titanium shaft 12.3×5.0×24.2Z rotor, grade 5 ball bearings, and an aluminium lightweight end plate to further help with cooling.

RC Discharger have introduced their new single iCharger X6 regenerative discharger. The third variant of the brand’s discharger line was designed for a single X6 charges and incorporates a clever stand for the charger and power supply. The device allows to charge and discharge batteries with 30A using the popular X6 charger in cycle mode. The recovered discharging energy is used for charging, making the whole design more environmental-friendly with the clean setup also minimising wires for greater efficiency. The discharger is ready-for-use and it is usable with many server-type power supplies.
Team Associated have introduced the new Reedy Radon 2 brushed motors as a replacement for the hugely popular Radon series. Added features such as dual ball bearings and adjustable timing as well as a choice of three versions make the all-new Radon 2 a powerful, reliable, economical, and versatile choice for those who prefer brushed motor power. The Radon 2 is offered in the same 17-turn/3600kV version as the original; however, 15-turn/4100kV and 19-turn/3200kV versions are now available to suit a variety of applications and speed requirements.
Xtreme Racing have released their new carbon fibre charger stand for the popular iCharger X6. Constructed from high-quality carbon fibre the stand holds most X6-sized chargers at an angle for better viewing and more airflow around the device. The snap-together stand is designed so that most 90x40mm server-style power supplies will fit below it to take up less room in the pit space. The set includes precision-machined carbon fibre plates and a pair of aluminium spacers with fasteners.
Coming from Performa Racing are their new P1 Radical Sensor System 690 Modified brushless motors for 1/8th scale applications. Designed to provide superior drivability and extreme power, the Radical Sensor System is composed of a separate magnetic ring featuring four magnets that ensure precise and accurate rotor position location, helping the controller to achieve smoother throttle control. The design also protects the sensor system from being disturbed by inappropriate signals. Compatible with all controllers the motors are suitable for 1/8 buggies, SCT trucks and on-road cars.
