JConcepts 1993 Ford F-250 monster truck body

JConcepts 1993 Ford F-250 monster truck body

Coming from JConcepts is the 1993 Ford F-250 monster truck bodyshell for 1/10th scale monster trucks. Resembling the highly competitive 9th generation F-250 the body captures the truck’s slightly lower hoodline, rounding the front fenders and grille. The “Blue Oval”, a trademark of all Ford pickups, makes a striking appearance centred in the grille and stout fender flares are carved ever so carefully in to the panels while openings allow for a vast assortment of tires on the market. The bed itself is solid and includes slated details to look like its full-scale counterpart. Light body lines and raised sections are present throughout, including such as fuel tank latch, window weather strip outlines and hood indentations. The hard body line positioned front to back give the truck heart and the “Built Ford Tough” personality. The body comes clear and includes an authentic decal sheet and easy to use window mask for the detailed hobbyist. Also included are an attachable front visor and rear racerback with the parts parts also being available separately to equip JConcepts’ other F-250 bodies.

Ruddog 60mm all-black receiver wire for RP120 ESC

Ruddog Distribution have introduced a new all-black 60mm wire for the recently introduced RP120 brushless speed controller. The all-black appearance helps to create a stealthy “factory” look many drivers are after while the shorter-than-standard 60mm specification makes wiring a more tidy affair especially in touring cars and buggies. The wire comes with a universal receiver-side plug, it fits the Ruddog RP120 ESC and also select other brand speed controllers.
