Avid’s new Triad HD wing buttons are designed with strength in mind for those long and gruelling 1/8th scale mains. They are 2.5mm thick, they sport a 16mm outer diameter and several highlight cuts make for a low weight yet high rigidity.

MSE MRX6R lower aluminium shock mount

Mugen Seiki Europe have announced the release of an aluminium lower shock mount for the MRX6R on-road kit. Made of high-quality 7075 aluminium and coming black anodised for wear and looks, the part was developed to replace the standard carbon fibre item. In the event of a crash, the alloy will just deform instead of break, as the carbon fibre parts can on hard impacts, allowing the driver to still finish the race. The shock mount is made in Germany and it is available separately, fitting the left and right hand side of the car.

Bezerk RC XB2 battery hook system

Bezerk RC are busy adding more carbon fibre optionals to their line-up with the latest being a battery hook system for the popular Xray XB2 buggy. Made from glossy 2.5mm carbon fiber, the hooks offer secure fore and aft adjustment of the LiPo shorty battery pack. Unlike slotted systems that can slide forward in a crash, these stay secure with a range of different positions including flipping them over to get the full range of adjustment. An O-ring holds the pack secure enough to keep it in place but also flexible enough to allow for the chassis to flex underneath. The O-ring hooks are centrally located to the battery hooks, so the O-ring is always centrally located to the battery pack.
