JConcepts B6 3-gear laydown honeycomb motor plate

Made for all Team Associated B6 vehicles with 3-gear laydown transmission is JConcepts’ new shielded honeycomb motor plate. The design of the plate makes the part both lightweight and very rigid in multiple directions, resulting in extraordinary toughness while, as a new feature, the motor plate has a built-in spur gear shield to add gear and ultimately body protection during crashes, landings and normal wear and tear. The honeycomb feature adds a 3D look especially as they remain natural aluminium while the rest is available blue or black anodised colours. Slight chamfering on the 3mm thickness material allows the rather beefy plate to look quite slim and trim.

Raceform have introduced the Lazer Jig, a dedicated tyre glueing station for 1/8th buggy tyres.

The tool is machined from high-quality plexiglas, it takes all standard 1/8th off-road rims and tyres and comes with a 2-piece needle applicator and decal sheet.
