RC Maker GeoCarbon car/tire warmer stand & parts trays

A number of new GeoCarbon goodies from RC Maker starting with this car stand for 1/10th & 1/12th Onroad which doubles as a mount for your Arrowmax tire warmers. Featuring a lightweight, minimalistic design, its 5mm carbon construction allows the ‘Skeleton’ style design to be extremely durable, yet very lightweight. The car stand features anti-slip rubber feet, as well as anti-slip thin rubber on the top, ensuring your car stays put and there’s no damage to your chassis or the car stand. Mounting the tire warmer inside gives you a platform for you to sit your car while you warm. To do this it requires the separately available 3D printed mounts to be mounted inside. The remaining two items are parts trays, with the first doubles as a setup station. This updated version features a different layout to maximise tray space, with an increased footprint. It features a solid construction of dual layer carbon fibre, with integrated micro magnets to hold small parts. There are 5 large parts compartments at your disposal on the tray, as well as a setup wheel nut holder and body pin holder. It also features a horizontal and vertical toe gauge holder, saving lots of room on your pit bench. The second parts tray is a new longer and thinner version which again is made up of dual layer carbon fibre, with integrated micro magnets to hold small parts or tools. There are 9 parts compartments at your disposal on the tray, as well as a body pin holder to keep your parts separate and organised.

Ruddog Infrared Thermometer

Infrared thermometers are essential tools for checking temperature when it comes to getting most out of RC power components without damaging your engine, motor, ESC or batteries. The slim design of the Ruddog Infrared Thermometer allows you to carry it in your pocket and measure temps during a pit-stop or immediately after you take your car off the track. The high-contrast display is easy to read even in low-visibility conditions and informs you about temperature between -40 °C and 380 °C, emissivity coefficient, battery status and whether the °C or °F scale is used.
