With this newest update, Redcat has given the Volcano EPX Pro a complete cosmetic makeover which includes a new body and wheels. Redcat has given the Volcano EPX Pro an aggressive looking monster truck body, available in blue or copper, that includes hard plastic roof rails and spoiler. These hard plastic components add rigidity and stand off points to help protect the body during rollovers, tumbles and crashes. The new 10-spoke wheels are durable and the white Redcat logos add to their aggressive styling. The Volcano EPX Pro is ready to run and includes a 3300KV RC540 brushless electric motor, waterproof 60A electronic speed controller (ESC), powerful 6Kg waterproof steering servo, and Redcat’s proven 2.4GHz radio system. The updated Volcano EPX Pro requires a 7.4V (2S) LiPo battery pack and a LiPo safe battery charger.

Reedy RT5012A HV digital competition 1:8 servo

Reedy’s new RT5012A HV digital competition 1:8 servo is perfect for 1:8 buggy and truggy racers who seek the ultimate combination of performance and durability. With input from the Reedy racing team, they’ve equipped the RT5012A with a powerful brushless motor that creates incredible torque and speed, carefully tuned for maximum drivability, and suitable for both steering and throttle applications. An advanced microprocessor provides precision steering and throttle control, resulting in more consistent and faster lap times. An all-metal gear set is designed for strength and durability while a CNC-machined full-aluminium case reduces operating temperatures for fade-free operation. Because the RT5012A features HV compatibility, LiPo-HV RX batteries can be used to take full advantage of the RT5012A’s capabilities.

Factory Team 16mm flat & tapered shock pistons

From Team Associated come these new flat and tapered Factory Team 16mm shock pistons for RC8B3 and RC8T3 series 16mm shocks. Machined from high quality Delrin, they add more tuning options to dial in suspension settings. Flat pistons have equal compression and rebound, making them ideal on smoother surfaces, while tapered pistons have less resistance when the shaft is traveling in the direction of the taper angle. If the taper angle is set down, the piston will have less resistance in rebound and more resistance during compression and this is what makes tapered pistons more ideal on rough surfaces.
