MIBO Carbon handle Allen Wrenches

Adding to its range of products, MIBO has released a new range of hex wrenches. Featuring a light carbon handle and very hard tip with an all black handle and tip finish, the wrench size is marked on the aluminium insert of the handle. The MIBO Allen Wrench is designed with the needs of RC racing enthusiasts in mind. It’s lightweight carbon design makes it easy to carry in your pit box or toolbox. Thanks to sufficient dimensions and a solid surface it’s also comfortable during extensive use. The tip material was custom-made and thoroughly tested to find an optimal balance of hardness. The hex edges are highly resilient from stripping, so if you want a tip, that survives occasional bolt head strips without any harm, this one is for you. And while it’s not advised to use it as a lever, it’s still not overly easy to snap.

Avid D8 Worlds Spec Carbon & G10 Arm Inserts

New from Avid Racing are these Carbon & G10 Arm Inserts for the HB Racing’s D8 Worlds Spec 1:8 Buggy. The 1.5mm Carbon Arm Inserts for the front offer your buggy another great tuning feature by reducing the flex and twist in the arm. Because the arm is now symmetrical (left and right arm are the same), it has two locations for an arm insert (top & bottom) and the arms do not come with plastic covers anymore. Avid Racing recommend running the carbon insert on the top of the arm and their G10 insert on the bottom to keep the dirt out of the arm while not making the arm too stiff.
