Takashima D-13 1.1mm Spring Steel Chassis

Following the successful release of their 1.2mm spring steel touring car chassis, Takashima D-13 continues to push development forward with the introduction of a new 1.1mm spring steel chassis. By utilising 120-degree ultra-low profile M3 countersunk screws, the new 1.1mm chassis uses exactly the same hardware as the 1.2mm version. This smart design choice allows drivers to upgrade without the need to purchase additional screws, keeping costs to a minimum. The main features of the 1.1mm spring steel chassis include Reduced Weight. With the same chassis layout, a 0.1mm reduction in thickness results in a weight saving of approximately 10–15 grams, depending on the platform. Another benefit is increased chassis flex with extensive laboratory testing combined with real-world track testing has showing that the 1.1mm chassis offers increased flex, delivering improved chassis flow and overall handling, especially on lower grip conditions. Another feature is Predictable flex behaviour. Both the 1.1mm and 1.2mm chassis share identical outer dimensions and the same cut-out design for each platform. This ensures a similar flex trend between the two options, allowing drivers to easily predict handling changes when switching thicknesses. With the chassis thickness reduced by a further 0.1mm, the overall centre of gravity is lowered again, contributing to improved on-track performance. These make the 1.1mm spring steel chassis is an excellent choice for medium to low grip tracks and low-power Stock class racing. With this latest development, Takashima D-13 continues to deliver some of the lowest centre of gravity chassis options available worldwide.

ZooRacing Hyena 1:10 LMH TC | Zerda 1:12 GT Bodies

German body shell producer ZooRacing kicks of the 2026 season with two new releases, the Hyena 1:10 LHM Touring Car body and its first entry into the 1:12 GT category with the Zerda 1:12 GT Pan car body. The Hyena is the second hypercar body designed for the next generation of touring car racing. The difference between the popular Hyrax and the Hyena is the focus on more steering, more agile cornering, by also less low design of the body and cap to fit a bit older chassis. The longer front and larger front splitter allow more downforce and the higher, but shorter rear end gives the Hyena a better rotation on all types of tracks. Key aerodynamic features include an optimised front end with the aggressive front splitter and sculpted fenders minimising turbulence and generate high front-end grip. A sleek, realistic cockpit area reduces air resistance while maintaining high-speed stability while precision-formed side channels guide air around the body to reduce drag and improve rear-end balance. The integrated rear diffuser and large rear wing provide maximum traction while keeping air turbulence under control.

Infinity IF18-3 Optional Shock Shaft

As their first optional release of 2026, Infinity are introducing a new shock shaft design developed to further enhance the performance of their IF18-3 1:8 Onroad car. This technical update eliminates the traditional E-clips normally used to retain the piston on the shaft and replaces them with a screw-type fixing system. The concept has already been successfully adopted for their IF14-2 1:10 Nitro Touring Car, and now they have now extended it to their flagship 1:8 platform. By adopting a new structure that provides 3 mm of top clearance, the system increases stroke capacity while optimising oil flow. At the front, initial response is improved, and at the rear, traction and “kick-out” feel under throttle are enhanced, boosting overall grip performance. Furthermore, by switching the shock piston fastening method to a threaded design, the shock shaft length is shortened and optimised by 3 mm for both the front and rear, delivering a more stable driving feel.

Due to the 2025 World Championships, I chose to stay with what I was most familiar with but after the Florida Carpet Championships, I began the switch. Whether they would end up as my sponsor or not, I chose this radio because it has all of the features I like best. I’m ecstatic to be apart of the fastest growing radio brand in competitive RC racing. I can’t wait to see all of my personal improvements and help the team provide a more quality and refined product for our community of racers.
