Hudy Chassis protector vinyl sticker

Hudy have introduced this new chassis protector vinyl sticker. Sized 360x125mm, and easily cut to fit your car, it is a great option to help protect the chassis of your 1/10th buggy. Recommended for use on new and used chassis to resist against scratches and scrapes and prolong the life of the chassis, for best results always replace the sheet when noticeable wear occurs. In addition to protecting the chassis, the protector also provides a slick and smooth chassis surface which reduces friction when contacting the race surface – especially clay. If you land hard and bottom out, your buggy should more easily slide through it and maintain momentum.

Rebellion-RC TC7.2 MM mid-motor chassis conversion kit

RC-Carbonstore from Austria have announced the release of their Rebellion-RC MM mid-motor chassis conversion kit for the Team Associated TC7.2 touring car. The main feature of the upgrade set is the patent pending sliding motor mount design that allows gear mesh adjustment through the chassis bottom, with the narrow design of the whole assembly ensuring the overall motor and battery width remains the same as in the “rear motor” standard car, creating a very centralised weight distribution and less unwanted chassis roll compared to current mid motor conversions. In addition the design makes for an ultra low centre of gravity while allowing integrated flex settings via up to seven motor mount screws. The sliding design also ensures a very wide gear mesh adjustment range, fitting up to 48T pinion and 114T main gears, making the conversion ideal for both stock and modified racing. The final specification of the kit now also incorporates two chassis stiffness adjustment areas that allow to brace the upper and lower deck in front of the rear bulkhead, and in front of the centre shaft – allowing to access complex chassis flex settings. The updated front chassis shape – compared to the original TC7.2 chassis – also perfectly fits the TC7.2’s composite front bumper for better support, protection and looks. Other features include the possibility to combine all three aluminium colour options of black, orange and natural with Rebellion-RC’s full range of carbon fibre twill colours. Not to be forgotten is a floating motor fan mount that attaches to the motor mount and that can be used with standard 30mm and 40mm fan units while not disturbing natural chassis flex. Included with the kit, that is completely made in Austria, also come high-quality Bando Kevlar belts as well as all needed screws and bearings. Not included however is the necessary Xray off-set main gear. Coming soon for the TC7.2 MM chassis conversion is also Rebellion-RC’s Cross-Flex aluminium main chassis that allows to further adapt the car to a range of track conditions by changing out brass or carbon fibre chassis inserts.

ORB Racing Forward 2WD FWD buggy – Coming soon

ORB Racing have released a first teaser image of their Forward called 1/10th scale 2WD front-wheel drive buggy conversion kit. The entirely new front/mid-motor platform utilises donor parts of a Team Associated B6.1D/DL buggy, doing away with the need to source discontinued Team Durango parts – as it was needed for its predecessor. The buggy is currently in its final stages of design and the conversion kit will become available soon.

GL Racing GLA-V2 narrow brass chassis

Made for the GL Racing’s GLA-V2 micro car is a narrow brass chassis set. The main plate weighs in at about 25g versus the 5g of the original chassis, improving the car’s stability while also countering traction rolling. In addition the narrow design ensures the chassis is less likely for scrubbing in corners, ensuring a smoother, more efficient ride. Two sets of battery mounting holes allow to adjust overall weight balance while two optional pouch of carbon fibre can be used to adjust chassis width if needed. A black surface coating prevents the brass material from corroding while gold-colour edge details add visual impact.

Bezerk Cat L1 carbon fibre option parts

Bezerk RC have introduced new carbon fibre option parts for the Schumacher Cat L1 4WD buggy in the form of lower shock towers and thinner upper decks. Starting with the shock towers, through testing in Australian conditions the designers have found that 4mm lower towers add the droop required for better handling on rougher terrain and make the car easier to drive on lower grip levels. The top of the front tower has been shaped the same to retain the kit plastic tower guard. The front and rear tower are cut from 4.0mm carbon fibre and they are available separately. Also new are front and rear upper decks in 2.2mm and 2.0mm variants that are both thinner than the standard kit parts for an easier to drive car in lower grip levels. The two thicknesses available allow to adapt the car further, enabling to fine-tune chassis stiffness. The top decks come as pairs separately for the front and rear and in the respective thicknesses.

SRT BH815S HV brushless low-profile servo

Coming from SRT is their new BH815S HV brushless low-profile servo for 1/10th on-road applications. Usable with up to 8.4V input the servo offers up to 15kg-cm of torque at a speed of down to 0.05s and thanks to an advanced technology micro controller it features very precise centre point returning and stronger holding power. Also included is SSR mode compatibility when using Sanwa radios. On top of this the servo comes in a new black and golden alloy case design, making it stand out.

Rebellion-RC Cross-Flex MM aluminium chassis kit

Listening to customer demands, RC-Carbonstore have announced the soon release of the all-new Rebellion-RC Cross-Flex aluminium chassis for their MM mid-motor touring car conversion kits. Of an ultra-low centre of gravity and adjustable flex design the main plate offers basically three chassis in one as it allows to adjust the overall flex to a wide range of track conditions thanks to interchangeable inserts that are held in place using M1x2mm screws. The highly machined herringbone design chassis can be equipped with brass inserts for running in high to very high-bite conditions, lighter and more flexible carbon fibre inserts make for a softer chassis for medium traction conditions and running the chassis without any inserts gives the most amount of flex for lower grip tracks. Mixing and matching the inserts and using more or less screws for fastening also allows to adjust the car’s weight bias and flex in certain areas. Testing of the new design is already underway and the main plate kits, that will become available for Rebellion-RC’s T4, TC7.2 and BD9/BD8 mid-motor chassis conversion kits will be up for grabs in about three weeks’ time.
