TTech Racing release details about X11

Tenth Technology X11

Some time ago we told you wrote about the fact that TTech Racing, the makers of the cool looking X10, had been bought by Xtreme-RC. Well now we see the first fruits of that new arrangement with the announcement that the X11 4wd electric buggy, the follow up to the X10, will be released at the end of April. The list of new features was published on the companies site and from what we have read the new cars looks to have better durability, performance and should look great too.

These shocks have been seen on the cars of Yuichi Kanai and Cody King at this weeks Silver State race, but World Champ Mark Pavidis didnt get a set, and by the looks of them they are in the pre production stage of development. For those techies out there i can inform you that the new shocks have an outside body diameter of 18mm with an inner diameter of 16mm and the pistons currently have 4 holes.

Axial range of tools

Axial have given RC Car Action the scoop on their new set of tools, and we havent been given much more information than that, except that they are available in a wide range of tips, and those tips are replaceable, and from the picture we can see that the larger sizes are available also with ball tips. The handles use some beefy screw driver handles that look grippy and comfortable and sport a colour coded tip mount, although i personally still prefer the Hudy method of tool size recognition.
