MOD 5ive-T/B Everlast M1.5 pinion gears

Coming from MOD are their new Everlast M1.5 pinion gears for the popular Losi 5ive-T and B models. Made from hardened alloy steel and coming heat-treated for ultimate wear characteristics the pinions not only last about 10-times longer than the standard gears, adjusted gear patch dimensions also improve spur gear to pinion contact. The pinions are also of proper dimensions to work with both OEM and aftermarket bells and front carriers and they help to prevent premature gear wear. The gears will become available in 17T to 20T specification.

RDRP B74 aluminium bellcrank arm

Ruddog Distribution have introduced the new RDRP aluminium bellcrank arm for the Team Associated B74 buggy, a direct replacement for the standard carbon fibre part. Machined from aircraft-grade 7075-T6 aluminium and coming black anodised for wear and looks, the bellcrank arm offers improved strength and greater durability as it replaces the somewhat weak original carbon fibre part that can break in heavy crashes or when touching track boards. The arm mimics the original steering geometry and it comes with machined silver edge details for factory looks.

Leadfinger Racing D819/E819 A2.1 Tactic body shell

Leadfinger Racing have announced the release of their A2.1 Tactic body shell for the HB Racing D819 and E819 buggies. The A2.1 Tactic body is a one off design that delivers a tuning option in between the original LFR Assassin and A2 Tactic bodies and it features the addition of the cowl scoops on the side pods. Depending on the performance the driver is looking for, these can be left alone to add to the overall down force of the car, or owners can choose to drill them out for additional cooling. When opened up, the pipe side of the cowl pulls air directly past the block and manifold of the nitro motor. The next addition was the fin on top of the roof. The advantage is more stability in high speed sections of the track and a more precise feel under hard cornering. Very effective is the additional down force added to both side pods and rear swoop that sets the body directly in between both the Assassin and A2 designs. The A2.1 body is available both in light weight or standard thickness, and it comes in clear, including window masks, stickers, and a front wing.
