Werks Racing B6 & B5-Pro engines

Werks Racing B6 & B5-Pro engines

Werks Racing have announced the release of their new B5-Pro and B6-Pro engine. They left the basic performance characteristics of the aggressive bottom and strong mid/top of the B5 and the super smooth and linear power band of the B6 in place and just made them better with these new Pro versions. By incorporating ceramic rear bearings and a lightened and epoxy filled crankshaft in the Pro versions, engines will now spool up faster providing increased acceleration and fuel economy. Black anodized crankcases not only look sharp but also provide for increased heat dissipation. A billet CNC machined rear back plate reduces weight and increases rigidity of the case assembly. A new heat insulation sleeve material improves carburetor performance and reduces the likelihood of heat saturation. Finally everything is topped off with a new, large diameter cooling head which not only improves heat dissipation but also lowers the overall CG of the engine by reducing weight by 5% over the standard B5 & B6 heads and an amazing 10% over their 2010 head design.

Robitronic Fuel & Exhaust coolers

Robitronic Fuel & Exhaust coolers

Robitronic have released these new fuel and exhaust coolers. The performance of today’s high powered nitro engines depends on many factors. One of the most crucial but often overlooked influence stems directly from the temperature of the fuel that enters the carburetor, the cooler the better. They offer a selection of fuel and exhaust coolers that efficiently lower the temperature of the exhaust gasses used to pressurize the fuel tank. These coolers are made from aluminum with large fins for excellent heat transfer and are available in black or red and as a complete set or separately.

Boca Bearings MX Engine bearings

Boca Bearings MX Engine bearings

Boca Bearings is pleased to announce their new and expanded line of MX Engine bearings for radio controlled engines. RC engines have evolved and become even more powerful. Today they use more nitro fuel and come under greater thrust loads than in the past. The nitro content can dry the thin stock bearing retainer very quickly making the whole bearing susceptible to premature failure when subjected to high radial and thrust loads. These MX bearings have a unique and new internal design to increase load capabilities that allows them to work under harsher operations where shafts come under excessive side and radial load. These bearings are available in both a standard high-speed version with either chrome steel balls or races, or as a ceramic hybrid, with ceramic balls and chrome races. For a limited time Boca Bearing will be offering an additional $10 discount on all MX bearing kits. Full bearing kits are available for engines such as Nova Rossi .21/12/15/21/28 size engines, OS 15/18/20/21/25/26/28/30/32/37/40 size engines, Picco 15/21/28/40/45 size engines, Collari, Sirio and more.
