Xray XII Thicker Chassis & Rear pod

New from Xray is this optional CNC-machined 4-cell chassis for the XII made from 2.5mm high-grade graphite material with a specially-designed compound for carpet racing and asphalt racing. The chassis layout is optimally designed to provide proper stiffness for excellent handling, while being flexible enough to generate good grip and traction. This thicker and therefore harder chassis is best used in higher-traction conditions and should be used with the 2.5mm rear pod lower plate.

Awesomatix Touring car photos

We’ve seen the CAD images of the radical new Awesomatix touring car chassis that is being designed and produced in Russia, and now we have some good quality photographs of the first car. As we have said before about this car, The two outstanding features are a new patented suspension dampening system, smooth, lightweight and with a low centre of gravity, which is fully adjustable without the need for disassembly and the compression and rebound dampening rates are controllable and consistent. The other thing is the drive train that combines the benefits of shaft and belt drive systems, without the negative side effects such as so-called ‘torque steer’, associated with shaft drive RC cars.

Xray 41T Diff Gears

New for Xray’s standard, and active, differential are these 41-tooth large bevel gears that have been machined from special Hudy steel material, which is specially developed for gear-type products. The gear has been additionally hardened and precision ground to fit the tightest tolerance requirements with the diff outdrives. The gears are individually machined on a precision German gear machine and every gear is individually tested, inspected, and run in. The diff gear is then laser engraved for easy and instant recognition. Their special heat treatment makes the gear very hard and strong not only on the surface but also in the core, thus give the gear an extraordinarily-long lifespan with very low wear comparing to standard gears. This gear is recommended for slippery tracks and offers increased stability while introducing a slight amount of on-power understeer.
