Krazed Builds 7XF TRF421 FWD Conversation Kit

Bringing us the A12F Veyron Kit F1 earlier this year, US based Krazed Builds has announced the up coming release of its 7XF kit, an innovative Front Wheel Drive kit designed for the TRF421 1:10 Electric Touring Car from Tamiya. It was designed with the focus of keeping all the original TRF421 parts used and no chasing down random ones from other suppliers. Starting from the ground up they designed a 7075-T6 Aluminium chassis focused on tunability with symmetrical flex in the right places giving control and power where its needed. They have maximised stability in the rear suspension so the front can do its job. Moving the stock motor mount forward they were able to maintain balance with performance and keep all electronics in a nested area for controlled weight transfer. This leaves room for drivers to fine tune their balance on scales. Not being a fan of stacking all the weight over the front tires and hoping the rear stays planted, this helped create what Krazed Builds believe is a better transfer of weight on and off power. The 3D printed bumper has the ability to use popular cylindrical weights with Awesomatix making these in 5 gram and 10 gram units that have a threaded centre hole. Adding a Carbon Fiber upper bumper brace drivers can attach up to 70 grams directly in front of their wheels. They also added a few extra locations towards the rear to attach these weights as well as the popular stick on ones. In addition to the 7075-T6 Alloy chassis, the 7XF kit also includes 2mm Carbon Fibre front and rear top decks while in the rear it comes with a new 4mm Carbon Fibre body mount plus 2 carbon shims for the rear shock tower mounts. You also get two new Carbon Fibre Battery holders plus a belt for the new driveline.

Capelli K6 1:6 Competition Kart

After more than two years of development, the Capelli K6 is now officially available. A passion project of the Australian company’s owner Ryan Capel, it was designed from the ground up as a purpose-built 1:6 electric competition kart and introduces a new category to RC racing by combining the driving characteristics of full-size KZ racing karts with the performance expected from modern competition RC chassis. The forged carbon fibre two-piece chassis incorporates a central pitching damper system to control chassis movement while maintaining consistent rear tyre contact. Extensive adjustment is available including camber, caster, toe, Ackermann, ride height, stub axle / kingpin offset and roll centre, allowing the chassis to be tuned across a wide range of track conditions. A key feature of the design is an adjustable mass positioned opposite the motor to optimise lateral weight distribution. The position of the weight can be fine-tuned to suit different electronics and track conditions, while optional weights further expand the tuning range.
