Mugen MBX8 high mount carbon fibre rear shock tower

Following the aluminium high mount rear shock tower for the MBX8 series of buggies, Mugen now also released a carbon fibre variant to further increase the tuneability of the rear end. The shock tower features the same shock and camber link geometry as the standard one, however additional wing mount positions allow to run the rear wing in higher positions which will help with rear downforce if needed. The shock stay is made of high-quality carbon fibre and it fits both the MBX8 nitro and MBX8 Eco E-buggy kits.

T-Works D817 V2 titanium & steel screw sets

The first is a 135-piece set of UFO head titanium fasteners with the second being a 165-piece set of gold-colour steel screws. The titanium set was designed to reduce the overall weight of the buggy while adding corrosion resistance due to the high-quality 64 grade material. The gold-colour set however keeps the weight of the buggy the same, mainly adding visual impact.

Horizon Hobby have introduced the Arrma Senton 4×4 3S BLX short course and Granite 4×4 3S BLX monster ready-to-run trucks.

Oil-filled large volume plastic body shock absorbers ensure the wheels stay on the ground even in demanding bashing conditions and grippy dBoots tyres put the power to the ground efficiently. The trucks are rounded out by pre-painted body shells and also included are Tactic TTX300 2.4GHz radio systems meaning needed for completion is just a 2S or 3S LiPo battery pack and a suitable charger.
