Coming soon from Axon is a clear protection film that was designed to fit in the battery area of the chassis plate. Only 0.1mm thick and offering moderate slip, the protection decal is virtually invisible while ensuring exceptional protection from scratches and damages that can occur when dust or dirt collects under the battery pack during a run, ensuring the chassis will look like new for a long time. Due to not sticking to the battery pack, the protective film also only has minimal influence on the natural chassis flex. The product will hit stores about mid-April.

Following first information on their forthcoming TB-05 Pro 1/10th scale touring car kit, Tamiya now released more information and also an image of the shaft-driven intermediate-level on-road kit. As expected the car will make use of the exoskeleton design that made the TA-07 Pro and M-07 Concept famous with the chassis looking like the TA-07 Pro but with the drivetrain layout of the TB Evo7 tourer – of which the TB-05 Pro will also adapt the ability for a front or rear motor position. Other features will include TB-04 design gear differential units, ball bearings, universal driveshafts as well as long TRF shocks, TA-07 Pro suspension components, a bulkhead-mounted steering assembly, and blue colour turnbuckles. The kit is compatible with TRF419-style swaybars and wheels and a high-torque servo saver will come standard with the kit.

Revolution Design Racing Products have introduced a new aluminium wing mount for the Yokomo YZ-4 SF 4WD buggy. The item is machined from a single piece of aluminium and its sturdy construction greatly improves the wing support especially at the high speeds experienced in modified racing. The mount is of an updated design compared to the kit’s composite part and thanks to heavy machining it is both durable and lightweight at the same time while the black anodised surface makes for a factory look.
Coming from P-One is a touring car rear wing set for 190mm body shells. Included are two wings, one for low-grip and one for high-grip track conditions, both of which feature moulded-on side dams that improve aerodynamic performance and durability while making it easier to prepare a new wing. Also included is lightweight wing mounting hardware in the form of two moulded composite wing buttons and moulded counter plates.
