Dim3nsion by JP Medius X26 1.5mm Topdeck

Germany’s Dim3nsion by JP has released a new 1.5 mm carbon topdeck for the Serpent Medius X26 1:10 Electric Touring Car. Expanding the chassis setup options with a more flexible alternative to the standard topdeck, the reduced material thickness allows the chassis to flex more. This additional flex can be particularly beneficial in lower-grip track conditions, helping to generate more mechanical grip and a smoother, more predictable handling characteristic. The topdeck is available in two different versions with the Standard 1.5 mm you get the classic geometry with reduced material thickness. It provides more flex compared to a stiffer topdeck configuration, giving you an additional option to fine-tune the chassis for different track conditions. The Wave 1.5 mm is designed to provide even more flex, creating another level of adjustment for your chassis setup.

Schumacher Mi10 ‘Avalon’ 3D Bumper

Schumacher has introduced for its Mi10 Touring Car this 3D bumper specifically for the high performance Avalon Body. The Avalon has taken the TC world by storm and with its long front nose, it requires a much larger front bumper to support it in the best possible way. The bumper is extremely light weight and has a flexible design with great impact resistance. The British manufacturer has also introduced an adjustable rear bonnet/boot support that fits a wide range of body’s for the Mi10. Supporting the rear of the body can reduce the body flex and can give improved grip, stability and consistency in high speed corners.

RC Xpress Pixel Z1 – More Images

Having revealed its first entry into the 1:28 competition market yesterday with a single rolling chassis image, RC Xpress has sent us more images of how a completed Pixel Z1 will look. Opening pre-orders for the kit, the Hong Kong manufacturer say the kit combines race bred design features and a economical price point. They added, stability and ease of assembly was put as a top priority whilst designing the Pixel Z1. Explain the car in more detail, the narrowed chassis plate is intended to create less scrub on bumpy RCP surfaces for more consistent handling. On the car, the extra long suspension arms allow for easier control in corners by slowing down the camber change. Caster is adjustable by adjusting the shims on the upper arm mount, move the shims towards the front or back to adjust. An easy to build 64p gear differential offers consistent performance on high grip RCP tracks and you get two different pinions to choose from according to what speed motor you are running. The kit includes a direct steering servo horn for the fastest and most direct steering response. Ackermann and bump steer can be adjusted through adding shims under the ballstuds. Grease filled side dampers ensure a more consistent handling car, change to thicker or thinner greases for a different setup according to track conditions. Adjusting pod droop is made via the adjustment nut in the centre damper, which is on a threaded shaft for easy fine tuning through tightening or loosening. The battery compartment is designed for medium sized hard pack LiPo’s out of the box with the included O-ring allowing easy and secure battery mounting. The Pizel Z1’s body mounts follow traditional mounting pattern allowing you install hard plastic bodies without modification.

VBC Racing Varia MPAN-RR 1:10 Advanced Pan Car Kit

Having teased last month that they were working on a new M-Chassis size rear wheel drive rear-motor pan car, VBC Racing has announced the All-New Vari MPAN-RR. Describing their return to kit production after many years away as ‘Scale Realism Redefined’ first kit creation in many years, they say the inaugural release of the Varia lineup, the MPAN-RR is a dedicated M-Chassis size RWD rear-motor pan car engineered specifically to mimic the raw power delivery, weight transfer, and driving dynamics of full-scale rear-engine sports cars. VBC say modern RC racing has gradually shifted toward hyper-optimised speed and artificial traction—often losing the real-world driving feel that makes motorsport so thrilling. VBC Racing is changing that with the introduction of the VARIA Collection, built around the philosophy: Real Dynamics, Real Physics, Real Engagement. Key features & engineering highlights of the new car include Aero-Grade 7075 Aluminium components such as precision-machined 7075 steering blocks, 7075 body post micro-adjusters, and heavy-duty structural mounts. Top-Grade Carbon Fibre & Composites include carbon fibre main chassis, a carbon fibre rear shaft dust-proof cover, and high-impact carbon composite components engineered for optimal flex. The all-aluminium Steering Rack System is fully ball-bearing supported with easily adjustable Ackermann angles. A Floating Servo Mount System eliminates unwanted chassis tweaking, allowing the main chassis to flex symmetrically and naturally. Run inline or transverse configurations to fine-tune weight distribution and roll characteristics with the Selectable Battery Layouts. The kit also includes heavy-duty titanium turnbuckles paired with an impact-resistant TPU front bumper. The 210mm & 225mm Adjustable Wheelbase is designed to accommodate most popular M-Chassis bodies on the market with VBC Racing recommending pairing with rear-engine body shells, such as Porsche 911 series replicas, for ultimate scale realism.

Yokomo MS2.1 Competition Touring Car

A year after the release of the MS2.0 Touring Car, and with the ISTC World Championships coming up in November at Huge RC in Thailand, Yokomo has announced that they have the MS2.1 on the way. The World Championship winning Japanese manufacturer has shared a CAD image of the car while also sharing details of what is to come describing the new MS2.1 as a further refinement of the Master Speed Series MS2.0. On the Master Speed MS2.1, the rear belt position has been moved closer to the battery which optimises the force applied to the centre pulley when drive power is increased. Additionally, the gap between the two bearings inside the centre pulley has been widened to improve retention accuracy, preventing pulley wobble and enhancing drive efficiency and durability. Other new features include
the front suspension arm now being longer by 1mm, and featuring a new front shock and sway bar mounting position. A new motor mount features a motor position raised by 0.5 mm which helps when using thinner chassis and provides a different roll characteristics. A lower centre of gravity has been achieved with new shock plastic parts and a new shock towers for the front and rear while the shock mounting position has also been optimised. These new parts on the 2.1 further improve the car’s capabilities and inherent potential across all track surfaces, evolving into a highly competitive machine. To allow existing MS2.0 owners enjoy the benefits of the Master Speed MS2.1, a conversion kit is also scheduled for release. The MS2.1 will be released simultaneously in three chassis specifications—carbon, aluminium, and steel! This means you can choose your kit for the various driving conditions and preferences.
