Team Associated CR12 Tioga 1/12th scale trail truck

Team Associated have introduced the CR12 Tioga 1/12th scale trail truck, the latest in AE’s line of CR12 series ready-to-run vehicles. The 4×4 rig comes RTR with Reedy Power electronics and meets S.O.R.R.C.A. class 1 and 2 rules right out of the box. No need to prep or build your rig; just charge it and you’re ready to hit the trails. Designed not only for scale looks with realistic wheels, tires and body, the CR12 is built for performance as well. The steel ladder frame chassis provides the perfect backbone for this rugged rig. The 4-link suspension, threaded shocks, and soft rubber tires give the grip and performance needed to climb over the roughest terrain. Transferring power to the rocks is a compact 3-gear transmission, plastic low-friction slider-type drive shafts, front steel CVA axles, and metal-shield ball bearings. The truck is rounded out by a molded rear cage with hinged body mount.

Xray XB4 low height front & rear springs

Xray have announced the release of new low height front and rear springs for the XB4 off-road buggies. The 42mm front and 57mm rear springs are 3mm shorter compared to the previous 45mm and 60mm variants, allowing for lower read heights when running in high grip track conditions. The springs are available as softer “2 dot” to harder “4 dot” variants and they are manually measured, selected and matched into pairs to guarantee precisely equal length and damping characteristics.

Hudy’s popular aluminium setup wheels are now also available in a variant specific to 1/8th on-road vehicles. Ideal for setup and tweak correction duties, the wheels bolt on just like normal wheels, however due to their high precision they help when adjusting suspension camber or toe setting. The wheels are machined from aluminium, they come black anodised and with white, laser-etched markings and they fit all of today’s nitro and electric-powered 1/8th on-road cars.

Xray XB2 gearbox height adjustment plates

Xray have introduced new carbon fibre gearbox height adjustment plates for the XB2 series of buggies. Machined from 2mm carbon fibre the plates are available in two designs, a T-shaped spacer to raise both the gearbox and rear suspension mounts by the same amount and also a smaller plate that only raises the gearbox. An optional -2mm aluminium motor plate will ensure the motor sits as low as possible, ensuring a low overall centre of gravity. Raising the gearbox, or lowering the chassis, will ensure optimised driveshaft angles, a lower centre of gravity and thus less rolling in corners in high to very high bite conditions. All parts are available separately to help create the desired setup.
