West Coast R/C Works X12 servo mounting plates

West Coast R/C Works have introduced their new servo mounting plates for the Xray X12’15 and newer. The plate is available in two versions, one is compatible with the Futaba S9650/S9670 and the other with Sanwa SRG-HR/HS servos. The servo mounting plates are designed as a direct replacement of the original part. The mounting holes of the servo will align the servo spline in the middle of the chassis. This will result in a faster servo positioning during the build and a more precise, and consistent setup. Furthermore, the servo will not move during a race and this will lead to a more consistent feeling and lower the risk of a DNF.

Xray X1’17 2mm carbon fibre chassis

Coming from Xray and made for the X1’17 formula kit is a 2mm carbon fibre chassis. The thinner main plate allows for improved chassis flex and thus more traction and side bite in low-grip conditions, improving the car’s overall performance on “green” asphalt and carpet tracks. The chassis incorporates new mounting positions for the pod links with a standard outer and an angled inner position, the latter will improve mid-corner steering. Furthermore the chassis sports a new, more forward centre mount plate position for running the new shock short absorber.
