HB D815 optional clutch springs & hub carrier plates

HPI Racing have new optional parts for the HB D815 1/8th scale buggy available in the form of different clutch springs and rear hub carrier camber link plates. Starting with the clutch springs, beside the standard 1.0mm spring there are also softer 0.9mm and harder 1.1mm variants available to adjust the clutch engagement to your liking. Generally spoken a softer spring makes for earlier, low-RPM engagement while a harder spring results in higher-RPM engagement with the latter resulting in harder acceleration while a softer setting makes for a more controlled take-off.

Also new are rear hub carrier arm sets to add to the standard parts. Coming as Type 1 to Type 5, with Type 3 being the standard setting, the parts will have influence on the roll centre and camber gain although HPI does not specify the exact specifications of each plate set. The plates come cut from carbon fibre, they offer three different camber link mounting positions and come in sets of four.
