X-Partz sensor wire Protecktor Coverz

X-Factory UK have introduced the new X-Partz sensor wire Protecktor Coverz stickers that allow to conveniently cover flat sensor wires in 2WD buggy chassis. With more and more racers preferring to use the latest flat wire sensor leads, the convenient channel in many of today’s off-road buggies because even more use than with previous thicker sensor cables. The only issue is that on most cars this channel runs under the LiPo and each time the driver removes the battery there is a risk of snagging or dislodging the sensor lead, possibly leading to damage. The sensor Protecktor Coverz are made from an adhesive heavy duty vinyl, and stick over the sensor channel once the lead is in place to conceal and protect it as well as looking really trick too. The stickers are available as four-piece sets in a range of designs for the Yokomo YZ2 DTM or CAL, Xray XB2C’20 or XB2D’20, Schumacher Cougar Laydown, and Team Associated Associated B6.1, B6.1D, B6.2 or B6.2D.
