Hudy 1/10th off-road car bag

The latest Hudy car bag to hit the light of the day is dedicated for 1/10th buggies. Like the recently introduced 1/10th on-road and 1/12th on-road bag, the buggy specific variant is made of reinforced fibre material, it sports bright Hudy graphics, a handle for easy transportation and it is easily attached to the Hudy travel bags. A cut out in the upper lid makes way for the rear wing, doing away with the need to remove the wing or wing mounts.

The servo features a new direct drive gear system that can provide more torque and speed with better efficiency. The titanium gears sport a hard coating that will extend durability and on top of this the servo is usable in a wide voltage range of 4.8V up to 8.4V. The high torque the servo provides makes it ideal for touring car and 4WD buggy applications.

Avid B6-series shock standoffs

Coming from Avid and made for the Team Associated B6-series buggies is an aluminium shock standoff set. The standoffs are a direct replacement for the kit parts, including two short front and two long rear shock mounts, as well as four Delrin pivot bushings. The standoffs are made of black anodised 7075 aluminium with a 7mm nut as the base to easily install and a long fully threaded stem to help prevent bent shock mount screws while throwing down laps. The Delrin pivot bushings are designed to rest against the smooth standoff instead of the screw which extends the life of them however they can be replaced to help maintain a tight fit in the shock cap when needed.

RDRP Team Associated B6 brass C & D mounts

Revolution Design Racing Products have introduced the C and D brass rear arm mounts for the Team Associated B6 and B6D. The suspension hangers are direct replacements for the kit parts and they add valuable weight especially when running in low-traction conditions or when the track is getting bumpier. Machined from black-coated brass and sporting gold-colour chamfered edges, the heavy suspension hangers shift the weight bias further back for improved traction. The mounts can be used together or separately with the C mount, in front of the rear axle, greatly reducing the unwanted pendulum effect very rear mounted weights can create. Both the C and D mount are available separately from now on.

A new manufacturing process and relocated mounting screws make the boards lightweight, true and durable.
