Hudy aluminium clamping throttle servo arm

Coming from Hudy are two new clamping design throttle servo arms. They are cut from high-quality aluminium and are available in a standard or off-set design, the latter being necessary for some nitro vehicles. The ultra-durable design with dual M3 threads allows for secure throttle and brake linkage mounting and the arm’s clamping design ensures it stays in place even after the main mounting screw became loose. In addition the standard arm is also available with plain, non-threaded linkage mounting holes. The arms come black anodised and laser etched and they are available in 23T, 24T and 25T specification.

Pro-Line X-Maxx Trencher 4.3” Pro-Loc tyre

Made for the Traxxas X-Maxx 1/8th scale monster truck is Pro-Line’s new Trencher 4.3” Pro-Loc all-terrain tyre. The Trencher 4.3” is wider and taller than the popular Badlands 4.3” for more aggressive looks and performance and it comes in a super soft compound for exceptional grip on loose or hard-packed dirt, sand, snow, grass or gravel. The tyre features Pro-Line’s proprietary Pro-Loc technology that creates an ultra-secure bond to Pro-Line’s Impulse Pro-Loc X-Maxx wheels while still being removable when required. The reinforced tyre bead fits into a uniquely shaped channel on the wheel and the bead-loc screws actually pass through the tire rubber before being pinched by the outer bead-loc ring to create the maximum possible mounting security. The tyre comes as part including foam inserts.
