The extra-flexible tape is ideal to keep nitro fuel tanks from expanding due to exhaust heat, it keeps body shells from melting when applied from the inside and it also is usable to repair damaged body shells or to keep them from breaking. The tape comes in 100cm rolls and it is available now.
Coming from HRC Distribution are several new products out of their HRC Racing brand.

Also new is a large range of battery connector adapters that includes XT60, Ultra-T, EC5, EC3, TRX and Tamiya types. The adapters are ideal for swift and easy connecting of formerly incompatible plug types. The adapters are available in countless configurations. Made to connect two battery packs or two devices in parallel are two Ultra-T plug adapters. Utilising one female and two male or one male and two female connectors, the adapters are a handy alternative to the common Y-harnesses. The plug adapter range is rounded out by three jumper/bind adapters with TRX, XT60 and Deans Ultra-T connectors.
