JConcepts MBX7-T Finnisher bodyshell

New from JConcepts come the Finnisher bodyshell for the Mugen MBX7-T 1/8th scale truggy. A drop fit on to the Mugen MBX7-T racing truck the body features a slight cab forward design, raked windshield and aggressive stance highlight a performance oriented core. A wide front hood scoop allows plenty of clearance for the unique Mugen shock geometry. Extended front chin spoiler, headlight and grill protect the front-end from unwanted up-drafts during flight. The Finnisher has a built-in air escape passage on the roof which allows the customer to fine-tune the body for maximum outdoor performance. The new body includes champion rear name plates which provide additional high-speed stability. The overall handling has been improved by balancing the bias between the cab location and rear wing placement which control the majority of the aero affects of the aggressively styled body. As usual it comes made from clear, high-quality polycarbonate, it includes window masks and a decal sheet.

The fasteners are available in blue or black anodising to match with the remainder of Revolution Design Racing Product’s option parts for Team Associated’s 5th generation off-road cars.

RDRP B5RM/MM aluminium bellcrank set

Made to replace the standard plastic steering bellcranks of Team Associated’s B5 series vehicles is the RDRP B5RM/MM aluminium bellcrank set. The parts do away with the kit’s plastic steering bellcranks in favour of stronger levers for added rigidity and better looks. The CNC-machined 7075-T6 aluminium construction considerably strengthens the steering assembly for less slop, a more precise steering reaction and less flex, resulting in a rock solid steering feeling and more durability in the event of a crash. The RDRP B5RM/MM bellcrank aluminium set is made for the use with fifth generation kits and it comes blue anodised and laser-etched to match the remainder of RDRP’s Team Associated option parts.

STRC Slash 4x4 LCG chassis back with some improvements

ST Racing Concepts’ popular LCG chassis conversion for the Traxxas Slash 4×4 short course truck is back with quite a few performance oriented revisions.
