Race Opt have introduced a limited edition chassis conversion kit for the MTS T2 electric touring car. The set included a new carbon fibre lower deck, a new 1-piece upper deck, as well as updated front and rear bulkheads and bulkhead covers for easier belt tension and diff height adjustment. Also included are improved anti-roll bar mounts for reduced play, an updated inner servo mount that allows for proper LiPo battery spacing, a single piece motor mount with chassis flex adjustment and last but not last a centre carbon fibre brace to adjust pitch flex.
T-Works have released a new stainless steel front chassis protector for the HB Racing D817 and D817 Ver.2 off-road buggies. The set includes two precision-cut front skid plates that are a direct fit and made to protect the front end of the chassis from becoming excessively scratched or damaged on abrasive surfaces.
Xray’s own Martin Hudy has shared the image of a prototype RX8E 1/8th electric on-road car on social media. The car is based off of the nitro-propelled RX8 and seems to use a drop fit electric conversion consisting of an updated radio tray assembly that takes two 2S shorty LiPo batteries and the speed controller while the motor mount houses an 1/8th-class motor with incorporated fan mount. We bring you more information on the subject as it surfaces.
