T-Works MP10/MP9 alloy offset shock standoffs

T-Works have introduced new offset aluminium shock standoffs for the Kyosho MP10 and MP9 series buggies. The parts are machined from aircraft-grade 7075-T6 aluminium, they are hard-anodised for wear and will reduce the overall weight while lowering the centre of gravity. The shock mounts are available in +4mm and +5mm variants with the added length changing the rear shock’s mounting angle which can be beneficial in certain track conditions. The standoffs are usable for the MP10, MP9 TKI3 and TKI4 as well as the MP9e Evo and they come in sets of two including suitable shock mounting screws.

Bittydesign Vision MBX8 pre-cut buggy body shell

Bittydesign have introduced their all-new Vision 1/8th nitro buggy body shell for the Mugen MBX8. Designed in collaboration with Nitro Buggy World Champion, Robert Batlle the body will offer an easier to drive and more balanced feeling compared to the Mugen kit body thanks to a new cabin, side pod and rear side flaps design that optimises the aerodynamic characteristics. In addition a flap behind the engine area guides the air towards the rear wing for a smoother and more directed airflow around the shock tower and lower wing mount. The body comes moulded from high-quality 1mm Lexan polycarbonate and it is laser pre-cut to fit all MBX8 and older MBX7 models. Included comes a pre-cut decal sheet as well as window masks.

The buggy also does not sport a traditional radio tray but separate radio and battery boxes as well as independent servo mounts for a more equal left/right chassis flex. Both the battery and receiver box are of the same dimensions, allowing to swap battery and receiver for weight bias changes.

Exotek Rock/Baja Rey Pro steering set

Exotek have announced the release of their new heavy duty Pro steering set for the 1/10 Losi Rock and Baja Rey. It was designed with a beefier structure and engineered to have the most precision thanks to the robust 7075 alloy design that incorporates an additional four bearings to connect the steering rack, instead of bushings, which eliminates friction, wear and slop. The set also includes crush sleeves that go between the bearings which help prolong the bearings life and maintains precise fit and operation of the rack. Lastly, a bigger 3mm threaded steel connecting ball is included which is stronger than the smaller 4/40 stock connecting ball.
