KM Racing have introduced more new parts for the MTX5 with the release of this new rear shock tower. Made from a thicker 4mm carbon fibre, its construction is much stronger than the original kit part, yet remains lightweight thanks to the material used and strategic machining of the surface.

Method RC have released their Mirage body for the TLR 22 in both mid and rear motor configurations. The compact proportions of the Mirage lower the overall vehicle weight and center of gravity, improving performance. The blade-like styling complements the narrow and angular chassis, while also enhancing aerodynamic performance and overall downforce moving the centre of pressure forward to help steering feel without giving up forward bite. The nose tucks tightly behind the front shock towers to reduce profile drag of the body.

From McPappy Racing these ultra lightweight adjustable body posts are half the weight of their competitors. There is about four times the normal machining involved to allow for a very lightweight design. The elliptical design provides a varied exterior wall thickness to lighten the side walls and they even machined a large hole in the middle for extra weight reduction. There are two set screws instead of one which is nice in case you strip one out or want to come in from a different angle. The typical threaded hole in the bottom allows you to mount it traditionally to any flat surface like the chassis or bumper. There is also two threaded side holes which will allow you to mount to any perpendicular surface like a cross brace. This allows you to not only adjust the body post height up and down, but also side to side. The posts offer 0.40″ of height adjustability and the kit includes rough cut 3″ Delrin rods that you can cut to size. Available in anodized Beryllium orange or plain aluminium.

This super sexy body can be used for all four motor configurations and will be available early to mid December.

New from Xray are these driveshaft adapters for the front solid axle. A direct replacement for the stock composite versions they have increased strength and lifespan. The modular design of the front solid axle allows for easy removal and servicing. Internal slots key to drive shaft pins require the use of driveshaft blades (included), enabling direct power transfer to the wheels and eliminating excess play between the outdrives and drive shafts. Sold as a pair.
