Team Zombie 1.2mm PVD-Coated Spring Steel Chassis

Team Zombie has introduced a range of 1.2mm PVD-Coated Spring Steel Chassis for 1:10 Electric Touring Cars. Available for the Mugen Seiki MTC3, Awesomatix A800R, Axon TC10/4, Xray X4, and RC Maker SP1, with included 12.9 grade steel screw set, each chassis is manufactured from ultra-high-strength hardened spring steel. Featuring precision CNC machining and exceptional flatness, the super-hard PVD coating provides an extremely low-friction surface, reducing drag between the chassis and the track to improve steering response and overall handling. It also offers excellent resistance to wear and corrosion, helping extend the life of the chassis. Carefully tuned flex characteristics optimise both rotation and stability, delivering a balanced and predictable feel across a wide range of track conditions.

Bittydesign A3-M 1:10 M-Chassis Body

Italian body shell producer Bittydesign has expanded its offer of 1:10 M Chassis body shells with the release of the A3-M. Inspired by the shapes of a real TCR car, they have adapted the proportions and measurements necessary for use with the most common M-chassis models on the market. The body is universal and fits all 1:10 M-chassis cars with 210-225mm wheelbase. It can be mounted on the 4WD chassis as well as front wheel drive (2WD) cars. Made with high quality and genuine polycarbonate Lexan and produced only in a Light Weight 0,75mm version, it comes with realistic wing plastic mounts complete with a set of screw, nuts and large plastic washers to fix properly the rear wing.

Mugen Seiki MBX8R ECO +4mm Chassis

Having previously released the option of a +4mm chassis for its latest Nitro Buggy, Mugen Seiki is now offering the option for their electric MBX8R ECO buggy. The longer chassis enhances stability and makes handling easier compared to the standard chassis. It also provides smoother steering response off-power. Switching to the +4mm chassis requires the Mugen Seiki’s 119mm Center Drive Shaft.

Awesomatix A800FXR 1.5mm Top Deck Long

New from Awesomatix for its A800FXR FWD Touring Car is this 1.5mm Top Deck Long. Machined from high-quality 1.5mm carbon fibre, the reduced thickness adds overall chassis flex, which translates into significantly more mid-corner rotation, especially in slow, tight corners. This makes it the go-to choice for technical tracks where the car tends to understeer and where extra rotation comes in handy. For larger, faster tracks, it pairs well with stiffer chassis options such as the kit aluminium chassis. Awesomatix say the new 1.5mm Top Deck is not suitable for A800FX and A800FX Evo.

Takashima D-13 Mi10 Front Bulkhead Reinforcement Plate

Takashima D-13 has introduced this carbon fibre front bulkhead reinforcement plate for the Schumacher Mi10 Touring Car. Available in three thickness options, 0.5mm, 0.8mm and 1.0mm, it is designed to significantly increase front-end chassis rigidity, reducing bulkhead flex under cornering and braking loads, and helping to maintain more consistent left-right suspension geometry. The chassis benefits from a more direct steering response, improved steering precision, and enhanced high-speed stability, with a more consistent front-end behaviour during braking into corners. On the other hand, the increase in front-end stiffness reduces overall chassis flex, which may slightly decrease mechanical front grip. On high-grip surfaces, this typically results in a more stable and easier-to-drive platform, while on low-grip conditions, suspension setup adjustments may be required to recover optimal front-end bite. Overall, the bulkhead reinforcement plate is primarily aimed at improving front-end structural stability, delivering more precise steering, greater consistency, and a more predictable overall handling balance.

Team Saxo F1-180 V5 1:10 Formula Car

Team Saxo has released its newest 1:10 Formula Car kit with the V5 version of its F1-180. Coming three years after the release of the F1-180-V4, compared to its predecessor the V5 features comprehensive upgrades to the car. With its new narrow one-piece chassis design, the car offers better stability with chassis deformation performance also improved. The ultra-lightweight and low centre of gravity design lays the foundation for the new POD suspension system. The POD mounts above the rear of the chassis and the rear-end positioning screws of the chassis can be used to adjust the tilt angle of the POD for precise set-ups. Through the spring tension of the rear-mounted POD you can adjust the lower stroke of the rear wheels. A new front suspension design has better performance in calibration and offers greater ease of operation, with enhanced stability. The rear axle is designed as a gear differential, with the original ball differential also compatible.
