Reedy’s Sonic 540-M3 motor is now available in a special 6.5T version designed specifically for 1/12th Modified class racers who race in European events where a 6.5T limit is mandated. A short-stack stator, revised wire sizes, upgraded magnet, and reduced weight make this version perfectly suited for this distinct racing application.

Coming from Trinity are two new ReVtech Team Lightning charge leads for 2S and 4S LiPo battery packs. The 2-cell variant is about 60cm long and it features Hi-Amp gold-plated 4mm bullets on the charger side and 5mm bullets on the battery side, both offering a tighter fit for higher amp carrying capacity. A black wire braid covers the wires completely and a custom logo shrink wrap makes for a custom look. Also new is a 4-cell variant with 4mm bullets on the charger side and a Deans-style T-plug on the battery side. The about 68cm long harness comes with a blue wire braid, custom logo shrink wrap and like the 2S variant it fits most high-end chargers.
Coming from Scorpion is their new Platinum Series 3400mAh 2S shorty LiPo battery pack.

Coming from Team Associated are the new Reedy Zappers SG Competition 4S 15.2V LiHV packs. The silicon graphene construction lowers internal resistance, increases voltage output, reduces operating temperatures, and improves cycle-life and the batteries are available in 4S 5200mAh low profile and 6400mAh high capacity versions. A high-quality, durable hardcase helps prevent damage while embedded socket connectors keep power-robbing resistance to a minimum. Male 5mm ESC connectors and a 4S balance lead are included.

Coming soon from Hobbywing are the new XeRun V10 G3 Modified and Stock brushless motors. An evolution of the previous G2 motors, both are of a radical new design that does away with wide parts of the classic motor can in favour of longer front and rear end bells that are also tailor-designed to suit the application. While the 5.5T to 8.5T modified motors, intended for off-road applications, sport smaller openings in the end bells to prevent dirt from entering, the 3.5T to 5.0T modified and 10.5T to 21.5T stock motors will come with larger openings for added airflow and cooling. Both end bell designs are also available separately as upgrades. The updated can design greatly reduces overall weight with the modified motors weighing at approximately 161g while the stock variants weigh in at about 132g. While being lower in weight, Hobbywing claim the stock variants also produce four percent increased torque and up to 16 percent higher RPM compared to the G2. Also new for the G3 are a 26 percent larger front and a 6 percent smaller rear bearing which leads to more stable and smoother running motors. Both variants also come with stepless adjustable timing, in order to fine-tune the power characteristics. The specifications are rounded off by heavy duty solder tabs and a single sensor wire port.
