Yokomo RD2.0 Aluminium Steering Bell Crank Set

Yokomo has introduced a new Aluminium Steering Bell Crank Set and Steel Front Axle for double bearing for its RD2.0 1:10 Drift Car.  The aluminium steering bell crank set has a forward tilt angle on the wiper post to reduce bump changes when the angle of cut is applied, and shows neutral characteristics.  The length of the servo rod attachment can be adjusted with a spacer, so the feeling can be changed by the lever ratio with servo activation.  The front axle used in the double bearing design for ultimate rolling of the front tire is sold separately. Although made of steel for increased strength, the 3mm shaft and hub shape make it lightweight.

RC Maker has released a number of new option parts of its SP1 1:10 Electric Touring Car platform.  After rigorous testing across multiple tracks and conditions they have introduced optional ‘soft’ upper arms.  These arms provide more caster flex which makes the car less aggressive initially but overall generates more traction in the corner.  Also new from the Australian manufacturer are new optional brass battery hooks.  Manufactured from brass with black oxide coating, they add weight (12 grams each) down low right next to the battery which is particularly useful when using ULCG Batteries where extra weight is required for correct balance.  They can be used on their own in replacement of the kit carbon hooks, or can be used in conjunction with 5014 or 5016 Full Size or Shorty Weights to further increase the amount of weight on the battery side.  The other new optional are Short ULCG Battery Posts for the SP1.  Manufactured from 7075 T6 Aluminium with black anodising they are intended for use with Low ULCG Batteries Under 20mm in height.
