Prostar RC Products Electro-Magnetic braking system
Prostar RC Products have introduced the only patented Electro-Magnetic braking system for 1/8 & 1/5 scale nitro vehicles. This innovation takes all the noise and fuss out of braking for your nitro vehicle as you enjoy backyard bashing or simply winning races and chasing titles. The Mag Brake makes it simple using only 8 parts. Eliminating up to 47 parts from the conventional brake system in a Nitro Car including multiple linkages, cams, springs, screws, stops, spacers, bearings, rods, pads and the large throttle brake servo. To install simply remove your centre bulkhead and differential. Re-using the stock differential and top plate, install their universal mag brake and car model-specific adapter kit in minutes. Power is supplied using the standard 7.4vdc receiver pack with a Dean’s plug for quality on and off connection. Connect the Mag brake controller to your throttle servo, front and rear magnets and to the receiver. Setup is simple, download the free Android or IOS application, power up your car, pair and adjust using their powerful class 1 Bluetooth, capable of up to 300feet depending on your model of phone. The first release in from July with versions for the RC8B4, TLR 8ightX and MBX8R expected with others to follow and for 1/5 scale in December of this year.
