Serpent Medius X25

Serpent has released its latest 1:10 Elerctric Touring Car, the Medius x25.  The successor to their X20 ’24, Dominic Greiner, has played a major role in the improvements with the new car which will be offered in a Carbon and Steel version kit.  Serpent claim they have enhanced the flex characteristics, optimised the geometry, improved the shock geometry, lowered the centre of gravity, and increased reliability.  The new chassis are again symmetric, but Serpent has changed their flex philosophy and developed a different shape that greatly improves the car’s handling.  The 1.2mm steel chassis features a PVD coating, which significantly reduces wear due to its exceptional hardness. An optional aluminium chassis is also available.  The driveshafts now feature 2 type of joint-crosses to deliver super smooth transmission.  The split top deck philosophy has been maintained for the X25, but the range has shifted towards a softer feel. This change has led to improved performance with the new chassis shape.  Their split shock tower design has been modified for better integration with the upper arm mounts. As a result, it is now significantly more durable and reliable, while also being lighter.  The design still features incremental adjustment options.  The Lower Arm design from the X20’24 with various carbon inserts has been retained, but the shock pickup position has been adjusted for improved shock geometry.  Another improvement on the X25 are the linkages with the new construction more precise and allowing for easier adjustment of the tweak.  The car also gets new 13mm big bore linear shock absorber.

Yokomo RS2.0 Optional Servo and Suspension Mounts

Yokomo has released two new option parts for their entry level Rookie Speed 1:10 Electric Touring car in the form of an Aluminium/Graphite servo mount and an Aluminium suspension mount set.  The servo mount is a hybrid structure that enhances the steering response of the RS2.0.  The stay connecting it to the chassis is made of aluminium, and a lightweight graphite plate is used on the upper side of the chassis to prevent excessive changes in the centre of gravity.  The servo itself is firmly fixed to the chassis to increase steering response and improve line tracing accuracy in corners.  The aluminium rear suspension mount, which also fits the previous RS1.0. is basically designed to have the same width as the standard one, but the rear rear suspension toe angle can be changed by interchanging the two types of bushings.  The kit standard (3 degree) bushing is the centre bushing, and by swapping the orientation of the offset bushing, the toe angle can be selected between 2.5 and 3.5 degrees.
