Tekno EB410 front & rear swaybar sets

Tekno RC have announced two new swaybar sets for the EB410 1/10th scale 4WD buggy. They make it easier to fine-tune the setup depending on the traction level, from loamy low traction surfaces to high grip carpet. The front set includes wires thicker than those found in TKR6623 and are best used on higher grip surfaces such as carpet or blue grooved clay. They provide a great tuning option to reduce steering sensitivity and prevent traction rolling on high bite surfaces. Included are five 1.5mm to 1.9mm wires. The rear set includes thinner-than-stock swaybars, making them a useful option for low grip surfaces. They will help generate additional rear traction and can also aid in stabilising the rear suspension on very bumpy surfaces. Included are five 1.0mm to 1.4mm wires.

RCSS T6.1 Next Level hybrid ceramic bearing sets

Coming from RC Speed Secrets and made for Team Associated’s T6.1 stadium truck are three new Next Level series hybrid ceramic ball bearing sets. Available as complete kit and also as separate gearbox and wheel bearing kits, all make use of high-grade hybrid ceramic and stainless steel ball races that are about 21 percent lighter than popular ABEC-3 ceramics with the stainless steel construction giving higher corrosion resistance than chrome/steel bearings. The low-friction design greatly reduces drivetrain drag, increasing runtime and lowering operation temperatures, making them ideal for both stock and modified racing. All three sets are available now.
