Yokomo SP-03D RWD drift spec servo

Yokomo have introduced the SP-03D programmable servo developed especially for the needs of RWD drift car racing. Housed in a machined aluminium case the servo offers up to 16kg-cm of torque with the achievable very speedy transit times making it ideally suited for the use with gyros and a wide range of gyro gain settings. The low-profile servo is standard voltage compatible, it features a brushless motor and lightweight aluminium gears and it weighs in at only 49g to minimise with built-up on the front of the car. The programmable servo is available in black or red colour and it will hit stores at the end of July.

VSR Project Thor wireless transmitter battery charger

Coming from VSR is their Project Thor wireless transmitter battery charging system. Designed for the use with induction charging capable transmitters, such as the Sanwa M17, but also an upgrade for many standard radio systems, the charger set includes the charging station as well as a transmitter battery pack and wireless receiver unit that will be housed in the transmitters battery compartment and that allow “touch-less” charging. The charger unit will be custom-build by VSR to match the respective transmitter while coloured LED units allow for further customisation. The charging unit is USB powered and it will charge a fully discharged battery in about three and a half hours. For more details on the system, check VSR’s website here.

TSP-Racing T80 BHS & T62 BHM servos

2-Speed from Germany have announced the release of the new TSP-Racing T80 BHS standard and T62 BHM low-profile competition servos. Starting with the T80 BHS, the standard-size servo utilises a brushless motor for a torque of up to 36kg-cm at a speed of down to 0.071s at 8.4V input. Steel gears and an aluminium case make for high durability and best possible heat dissipation in long nitro mains. The low-profile brushless-powered T62 BHM is capable of speeds of down to 0.06s and a torque of 15kg-cm, making it ideal for most 1/10th scale applications. Steel gears and an alloy case ensure rigidity and cool looks. Digital technology provodes strong holding torque, high positioning accuracy and quiet operation. Both servos come equipped with all-black wires for a professional appearance and they will become available by mid-June.
