VBC Racing Varia MPAN-RR Option Parts

Following the release of their Varia MPAN-RR 1:10 Advanced Pan Car Kit last month, VBC Racing has released an optional 239mm Carbon Fibre Main Chassis Plate and Graphite Front Strut Bar Set for the car.  The longer 2.5mm thick chassis lets you expand your body shell options and tune your chassis geometry.  While the standard kit provides 210mm and 225mm configurations, this extended 239mm conversion allows you to seamlessly fit longer 239mm M-Chassis bodies while enhancing high-speed stability and tracking on larger or high-grip circuits. It provides multi-position Inline Battery Layouts and features integrated mounting positions to fine-tune your inline shorty LiPo battery placement, allowing exact front-to-rear weight bias adjustments for maximum traction.   The new Graphite Front Strut Bar Set is machined from high-grade carbon graphite and includes three distinct stiffness profiles—Soft, Medium, and Hard.  Designed for versatility, all three bars accommodate camber adjustments from 0° to 2° without binding or compromising suspension movement.  Key performance advantages include Controlled Front Flex by tying the left and right front suspension assemblies together to stabilise camber recovery under heavy cornering loads. Sharper Turn-In & Off-Power Steering is achieved by reducing unwanted chassis twist at the front, delivering a more direct, predictable steering response.  Quick trackside changes allow you to dial in front-end aggressive turn-in vs. smooth, forgiving mid-corner steering. The Soft, with its narrow and pocketed profile, allows more front independent suspension flex to generate maximum mechanical grip and side bite in low-traction environments. The Medium, narrow width profile, is an ideal baseline setting providing a balanced mix of crisp turn-in steering while maintaining sufficient flex over bumps or sharp direction changes. The Hard, with its wide profile, maximizes front rigidity to eliminate front-end washing out, traction rolling, or sluggish steering feedback on extreme grip surfaces.

Xray X1’27 1:10 Formula 1

XRAY has unveiled details of their 2027 model of its X1 1:10 Formula car which will be available as an Aluminium or Carbon chassis versions for optimised performance on different track surfaces without optional parts.  The Carpet-spec Aluminium Version features a 2.0mm aluminium chassis and solid axle while Asphalt-specific Carbon Version features a 2.2mm carbon chassis and gear differential.  The X1’s redesigned one-piece chassis works with the new front suspension and features increased rear stiffness for improved stability and traction.  The re-engineered front suspension design enables easier ride height, camber gain, and droop adjustments, smoother damping, and more convenient oil refilling.  Shorter one-piece front lower arm creates a cleaner and more attractive front suspension design.  Narrower carbon arm mount plate improves cornering speed and connects directly to the carbon top deck.  The front aluminium top deck mount has been redesigned and matches the new front suspension layout.  The relocated carbon POD lower plates move the motor 1.5mm to the right for improved weight balance with bulkheads redesigned to work with the new POD assembly and rear aluminum holder.  Other new features of the X1’27 include a new Hudy composite front wing developed with Ehrbar Engineering to deliver outstanding steering response and excellent stability.

MXLR Turbo Motor Fan 30mm | 40mm

New from Germany’s MXLR comes these 30mm and 40mm Turbo Motor Fans built to deliver maximum airflow and the best possible cooling for today’s highly stressed motors. Together with their separately available MXLR Fan Booster, the combo lifts your receiver voltage to 8V, the Turbo Motor Fan turns that into serious airflow – less fading, more consistency, more speed over the full run time.  Both fans run on double ball bearings for smooth, reliable operation and a long lifespan.  Attention has been paid to the fan wiring also, the Turbo Motor Fans coming with soft black silicone wire that routes cleanly through your car instead of fighting you at every corner. The wire on the fan itself is approx. 43mm long and ends in a small black male JR connector.  An extension wire of approx. 128mm is included in the set, so you can reach whatever mounting position your chassis layout asks for.
