JConcepts has the steering system on the DR10, SR10, and RB10 covered with an all new light-weight, aluminium steering rack and bellcrank. The rack is CNC-machined and replaces the stock plastic piece, and comes in a blue or black anodised finish and sports machined chamfered silver edges and engraved JConcepts.net logo. The aluminium, light-weight assembly provides a more rigid steering system with increased steering feel and response. The bellcrank is a servo saver-less aluminium steering system and replace the stock plastic bell-cranks, they come in a blue or black anodised finish and sport machined chamfered silver edges and engraved JC logos. The aluminium, light-weight assembly provides a more rigid steering system with increased steering feel and response.

Surpass have introduced the V2 version of their Rocket 540 Plus 4-pole brushed crawler motor. The power plant features a 5-slot 775-sized rotor for improved low-speed linearity and increased low-speed torque and it makes use of high-strength and high-temperature resistant neodymium iron boron magnets. Compared with its predecessor, performance has been improved with lower internal resistance along using optimised magnets resulting in reduced heat build up making the whole unit more efficient. The motor is available in four different winding variants including 11T, 13T, 16T, and 20T. The combined 80A speed controller has also been updated, the V2 version having much improved throttle feel and the internal resistance of the MOS tube has been reduced, again for reduced heat and improved efficiency.
