Method RC Mirage TLR 22 body

Method RC Mirage TLR 22 body

Method RC have released their Mirage body for the TLR 22 in both mid and rear motor configurations. The compact proportions of the Mirage lower the overall vehicle weight and center of gravity, improving performance. The blade-like styling complements the narrow and angular chassis, while also enhancing aerodynamic performance and overall downforce moving the centre of pressure forward to help steering feel without giving up forward bite. The nose tucks tightly behind the front shock towers to reduce profile drag of the body.

McPappy Racing lightweight body posts

McPappy Racing lightweight body posts

From McPappy Racing these ultra lightweight adjustable body posts are half the weight of their competitors. There is about four times the normal machining involved to allow for a very lightweight design. The elliptical design provides a varied exterior wall thickness to lighten the side walls and they even machined a large hole in the middle for extra weight reduction. There are two set screws instead of one which is nice in case you strip one out or want to come in from a different angle. The typical threaded hole in the bottom allows you to mount it traditionally to any flat surface like the chassis or bumper. There is also two threaded side holes which will allow you to mount to any perpendicular surface like a cross brace.  This allows you to not only adjust the body post height up and down, but also side to side. The posts offer 0.40″ of height adjustability and the kit includes rough cut 3″ Delrin rods that you can cut to size. Available in anodized Beryllium orange or plain aluminium.
