Avid B7 Adjustable Front Titanium Axle System

New from Avid come these Adjustable Front Axles for the RC10B7 1:10 2WD Buggy from Team Associated. The system allow you to finally adjust your track width without needing different axles, hexes, or carbon shims. You you can adjust your track width from 4mm up to 7.5mm with the included shims. The axles are made from 6AL-4V titanium and the hexes/shims are 6061-T6. With wheels getting so thin at the hex depth, using a carbon track width spacer is now maxed out at 1mm which isn’t a lot of adjustment and this solves that. You can now narrow the car down to 4mm which can be helpful on very tight dirt tracks with quick transitions. With the system including (2) 0.5, (2) 1.0, and (2) 2.0mm shims, you can adjust easily down to the 0.5mm without having to have several hexes and track width spacers. To adjust the width, just take the hex off and change the shims!

Associated RC8B4 18mm | 19mm HTC Diff Gear Sets

Team Associated has added 2 new HTC Differential Gear Sets for their 1:8 Buggy. In development during 2024, and used by several team drivers at the IFMAR Worlds, the 2 smaller size HTC gears provide tuning advantages to dial more grip and corner speed into the buggy for tighter tracks and looser conditions. The lower the grip, the smaller diameter gearsets help distribute power without locking and spinning the tires. The sets are offered in 18mm or 19mm options.

Fenix Racing G56.2 ‘Wings to Wheel’ WTW device

Continue the development of its G56.2 Pro10 chassis, Italy’s Fenix Racing has released a new optional ‘Wings to Wheel’ WTW device. Bottoming out and porpoising are familiar terms to those who follow F1, but bottoming out is not only a problem for F1, it happens also in Pro10, especially when you drive in the typical high speed 1:8 European circuits. Nowadays Pro10 are easily reaching over 110kph and contending the fastest lap with 1:8 bodies that developing heaps of downforce, giving the chassis a hard job. Fenix “wing to wheels” aka WTW device has been developed at the MyCandy Arena, the band new track in Lentiai, Italy. WTW allow the body to be “connected” straight to the rear motor pod, thus to the rear wheels, moving the body downforce, from the main chassis to the rear motor pod. WTW is not replacing the standard body retention system but is designed to work together with it and give the best results on big open and fast circuit. A special acknowledgement goes to Max De Nadal, for the constructive support. Fenix WTW has been developed to suit Fenix G56 and G56.2 and the concept is patent pending.
