Yokomo introduce the BD7-2014 touring car kit

Yokomo have introduced the next evolution of their 2013 ETS and EFRA Euros winning BD7 touring car kit. Based on the current kit the 2014 edition will only feature slight revisions of the highly successful design. Part of the new package is a redesigned motor mount for a more centralised motor position and the ability to use larger pinion gears for Stock class racing. Also new are hard anodised aluminium threaded shock bodies. The kit will become available as the standard blue colour scheme chassis and also as a limited edition Black Series kit with black anodised aluminium parts. Yokomo’s Ronald Völker and Yukijiro Umino are set to race the new car at this weekend’s 4th round of the Asia Onroad Championship at the Yatabe Arena with the kits hitting stores around Christmas.

Savöx SW-1210SG waterproof servo

Savöx Germany introduce the waterproof SW-1210SG standard size servo. Actually being slightly taller than what is considered “standard size” the 42mm high servo offers 20kg-cm of torque and a speed of 0.15s at 6.0V input. It features metal gears and a coreless motor making it ideal for all heavy duty applications such as monster trucks and generally all cars where torque is needed over speed and the slightly taller case is not an issue.

The clear body is made from 0.75mm thick polycarbonate, it comes without a driver’s helmet and fits most of today’s formula chassis.

Exotek Racing introduce new low roll centre aluminium suspension mounts for the Team Durango DEX210 buggy. Available are a RF Hanger with shims, and two LRC mounts with standard or +0.5° toe-in setting.
