Neo Vintage Racing Motor Cooling Plate

More from well known RC designer Michael Vollmer and Patrick Morliere project Neo Vintage Racing comes this Cooling Plate for enhanced motor performance.  Engineered to tackle overheating head-on, this cooling plate is a game-changer for both stock and modified buggy racing. Crafted with precision, its slotted plate design, coupled with strategically placed air channels, facilitates optimal airflow, ensuring your motor stays cool even during the most intense races.  Eliminating motor fade and magnet damage, this cooling plate ensures uninterrupted power until the finish line.  The red-anodised aluminium plate doubles as a distance plate, resolving common issues with modern brushless motors, particularly in Kyosho cars like Lazer, Mid Optima, Optima, and Ultima. By creating a safe distance between the motor plate and gearbox, it simplifies wiring and eliminates concerns of soldering tabs interfering with gearbox components.

Revolution Design Ultra Backplate for O.S .21 Engines

New from Germany’s Revolution Design comes this Ultra Backplate engineered to maximise fuel efficiency and enhance engine performance for OS .21 offroad engines.  A direct-fit upgrade for all O.S .21 offroad engines, including B2104, B2105, RNX, and Samurai models and their OEM versions, it is manufactured from high-quality 7075-T6 aluminium and PTFE hard-coated for durability and reduced friction, this precision-designed upgrade extends runtime by up to 30 seconds per tank.  The advanced internal design of the Ultra Backplate optimizes fuel dynamics by reducing flow resistance and improving fuel scavenging. When the exhaust port opens, the generated low pressure assists in drawing fuel more effectively through the crankcase, ensuring a smoother power delivery and increased efficiency, particularly in the mid-to-high RPM range.  At lower RPMs, the improved flow design maintains a more stable idle and smoother throttle response, contributing to an overall better engine feel and improved consistency.

Neo Vintage Racing Ultima LWB Chassis Set

Another new chassis set from Neo Vintage Racing this time tailor-made for the Kyosho Ultima.   Made using premium 3.5mm thick carbon-fibre for unrivalled quality and durability, it boasts an extended wheelbase of 280mm and a heightened front kick-up of 30 degrees, this chassis transforms the Ultima, rendering it remarkably more manoeuvrable.  The redesigned geometry, coupled with an optimised center of gravity, enhances cornering agility while maintaining exceptional stability.  On uneven terrain, the elongated wheelbase enhances control and adeptly navigates bumps with ease.  Equipped with a versatile battery holder system accommodating both stick and shorty Lipo batteries, alongside the option of longitudinal or transverse mounting positions for the steering servo, customisation reaches new heights. Engineered for stiffness, the chassis facilitates a streamlined arrangement of electronic components, ensuring a tidy layout.  A meticulously designed tunnel facilitates the speedo wire to the receiver, allowing for a lowered battery position and seamless cable management.  Tested by Neo Vintage Racing across various tracks and conditions, the performance leap against the original Ultima chassis is dramatic.
