Yeah Racing QUTUS on-road shock absorbers

Yeah Racing have introduced their new QUTUS on-road shock absorbers for 1/10th scale touring and M-type cars. QUTUS stands for Quick Tuning System with the shocks utilising a multi-piece piston that allows to use 1 to 5-hole settings without having to change the piston itself. The settings are accessible without having to tear the shocks apart, by simply extracting the shock to its fullest and turning the shock piston clockwise or counter-clockwise. Two different adjustable pistons are included in the set as well as three different fixed pistons in case a traditional setup is called for. The big bore shocks are available in 50mm and 55mm length for touring and M-chassis cars, they come in red, blue or black colour and include a shock spring set. The 50mm set also includes a second set of 52mm shock shafts to allow for shock length fine-tuning.

RC Maker A800 long arm roll centre shim plate set

Coming from RC Maker is a new roll centre shim plate set for A800 cars using the optional long arms. Consisting of two different thicknesses of 0.5 and 1mm, the set allows tuning from 0.5 to 1.5mm which covers the normal range for Awesomatix cars. The plates also have a front and a rear, with cutouts to distinguish them, due to the hole spacing being wider in the front. They slide in without the removal of your screw, allowing to slide out the old and in the new in a matter of seconds. Once the plate is installed simply tighten as normal. The plates work in the outer as well as the inner positions and the central hole allows easy removal by inserting a 1.5mm driver and sliding them out from the top. The shims are only usable on A800 cars using the LA +9.0 and +8.0 arms and the set includes four 0.5mm and four 1.0mm thickness shims.
