Schelle Racing Innovations B64 rear top deck

Coming from Schelle Racing Innovations is the rear top deck for the Team Associated B64 buggy. The part is the perfect complement to Schelle’s popular front top deck. Connecting the rear gearbox with the motor mount allows for increase bending strength as well as reduced chassis flex in cornering. When installed, racers will notice an immediate increase in corner speed, as the rear end of the buggy will now follow lock-step with the front end. The part is machined from 2.5mm carbon fibre and comes including a 3-D-printed plastic rear top deck mount and a 3-D-printed plastic battery stop.

Capricorn P12 & TE-03 aluminium chassis parts

Capricorn have introduced a new aluminium main chassis plate for the P12 1/12th scale pan car as well as an aluminium upper deck for the TE-03 electric touring car. Starting with the chassis, the main plate was developed especially for high grip track conditions with its partly pocketed design making for a lower weight and optimised flex characteristics. As for the TE-03’s alloy upper deck, the part will excel especially on high-grip tracks as it reduced the overall chassis flex for improved corner speed and a slightly milder steering response.
