Reedy low-profile connectors & 13-gauge silicone wire

Reedy low-profile connectors & 13-gauge silicone wire

Team Associated have introduced the new Reedy 13-gauge Pro silicone wire and low-profile caged bullet-type connectors. Starting with the connectors, they feature a flat top for easy soldering and a versatile caged design that easily adapts to the slight variation in socket sizes found among different battery types and manufacturers. A snug fit and silver plating means less power loss due to resistance while 14mm length makes them a suitable for use with most socket style batteries. The connectors are available in 4mm and 5mm variants and in 2-piece or 10-piece packages. The new 13-gauge Pro silicone wire is a pure copper and pre-tinned variant for easy soldering. A heavy-duty silicone insulation protects the wire from cuts while maintaining maximum flexibility. The special diameter makes it usable for both on-road and off-road applications as it offers the best compromise between resistance and weight. The wire is available in 1m or 30m coils.

Tamiya TRF211XM 1/10th 2WD buggy kit

Tamiya have released official information about their forthcoming TRF211X 1/10th 2WD buggy kit. Information about the vehicle have floated around for some time but now the Japanese manufacturer has issued proper information about the successor of the TRF201 kit. The buggy will come in a mid-motor-only configuration using the TRF201’s suspension components and a resin material main tub chassis that was specially produced to offer a highly-balanced blend of rigidity and flexibility that suits it to any surface. Rear rigidity is further enhanced by fastening the rear stiffener to the carbon fibre battery stiffener. The aluminium gearbox can be fitted with ball or gear diff units to further adapt the chassis to the surface and included in the kit comes a lightweight bodyshell and rear wing.
