Tekno RC option parts release
Tekno RC has announced the release of several new option parts to further enhance the performance of their offroad vehicles. The new parts include Adjustable Ackerman Spindles with 3° incline, Molded Shock Pistons, new Ring & Pinion Gearing and Wide Mud Guard Set. For the EB/NB 2.1+, the new Adjustable Ackerman Spindles have redesigned incline steering spindles that provide enhanced handling on bumpy and high grip tracks! The new spindles are compatible with all Tekno RC 2.1 and 2.2 1/8th scale vehicles, enhancing steering predictability across all track conditions. On high grip tracks, inclined spindles reduce initial steering sensitivity; on rough tracks, they improve mid corner predictability; and on low grip surfaces, they increase corner exit acceleration.
The Molded Shock Pistons improve the durability of 1:8 buggy shocks. These new, more durable pistons use the larger TKR1267 washer first released in the ET/NT48 2.2 vehicles. They are now available in configurations for buggies as well as a new blank piston with 16 dimples.
Fine tune the gearing of your Tekno RC buggies with two new sets of ring and pinion gears. These new gears have an improved tooth engagement which offers smoother acceleration and lower rolling resistance for improved corner speed.
New wide mudguards for the 2.x 1:8 electric vehicles help to expand the width of the chassis, making your electric vehicles feel more like nitro. Handling qualities to expect include increased in-air stability, improved high-speed downforce, and slower chassis roll mid-corner. The new mud guards also have enhanced ESC and servo wire routing, making it easier to position the signal wires exactly where you want them.
Tekno RC is reintroducing steel pivot balls. These steel balls are slightly more durable, making them less prone to crush and loosen during a severe crash or a long main. The steel pivot balls are a direct replacement for the standard lightweight aluminum pivot balls and no additional hardware is required.
New Rear Arm Mud Guards for SCT/MT410 2.0 are intended to be used when racing in wet conditions, these mud guards help prevent debris from interfering with the rear suspension and driveline components. Made from Lexan, they come in packs of two.
