Reedy Zappers SG competition LiHV battery packs

Team Associated have introduced their all-new Reedy Zappers SG LiHV battery packs. Their silicon graphene construction lowers internal resistance, increases voltage output, reduces operating temperatures, and improves cycle-life. Zappers SG batteries are available in low-profile (LP) stick and shorty versions as well as a 1S version designed for 1/12th scale and other classes that require the use of a 1S battery. A 7.6 nominal voltage means that with a suitable charger, the battery can be safely charged to 4.35V/cell. However, even when the typical 4.2V/cell charging limit is enforced, Zappers SG still offers a significant advantage thanks to a flatter discharge curve, which results in more voltage deeper into the race. A high-quality, durable hard case helps prevent damage while embedded socket connectors keep power-robbing resistance to a minimum. A charge lead and male ESC connectors are included.

RPM Baja Rey front A-arm set

RPM have introduced a front upper and lower A-arm set for the Losi Baja Rey. The kit parts are known to be flimsy and cause a bind with the steering spindles at full droop so RPM redesigned the shape of the upper A-arm. The new shape eliminates the bind while adding extra clearance at the pivot ball. In addition, the ultra tough materials used beef up the upper arm for strength and rigidity as well. The RPM A-arms also add an extra outboard shock mount that will drivers that added edge under any conditions. One final fix was to reduce the massive amount of negative camber incorporated into the stock A-arms. RPM reduced the negative camber to roughly negative 2 degree for significantly improved tyre wear and overall vehicle performance.
