Yeah Racing 15mm offset aluminium hex adapters

Coming from Yeah Racing are 15mm offset aluminium hex adapters for a range of crawler kits. The adapters are machined from high-quality aluminium and they are equipped with 12mm hexes to suit most crawler wheels. The extra offset makes for an increased track width which translates to improved stability and less chances of rolling the truck while also more force can be put on the outer tyre which further increases grip during climbs. The adapters fit a range of trucks including the ones from Axial, they are available in red, blue and black colour and are usable with wheels that sport a centre hole of at least 5mm.

Axial SMT10 Max-D Monster Jam 1/10th scale RTR truck

Axial SMT10 Max-D Monster Jam 1/10th scale RTR truck.

Based on Axial’s new SMT10 1/10th scale 4WD monster truck chassis comes the Max-D Monster Jam truck. Since 2003, the full-scale MAX-D has won 11 Monster Jam World Finals championships and brought crowds to their feet with daredevil manoeuvres and non-stop excitement. Amongst a lineup of Monster Jam trucks, the low slung futuristic SUV body with yellow, red and silver paint scheme combined with chrome spikes is an instant grabber. Coming back to its 1/10th scale sibling, the kit was developed for maximum strength and an extremely detailed appearance. The chassis offers many pivot points for suspension tuning while realism and strength are achieved through triangulation of the chassis tubes, making it ready for maximum attack and hardcore Monster Truck bashing. Part of the package are also the AR60 OCP-Axles that are constructed from high strength composite material which has a low flex rate but is not as brittle as standard glass filled nylon. The combination of these axles and a true 4-link suspension gives optimal performance for any terrain with the look of a real full-scale vehicle.

STRC release new Axial aluminium option parts

ST Racing Concepts have introduced new aluminium option parts for a range of vehicles including the SMT10, Yeti, RR Bomber and the SCX10 II. First up are the aluminium lower suspension link reinforcement plates. Designed for the use with the SMT10, Yeti and RR10 Bomber, the CNC-machined aluminium upper and lower link plates offer improved durability and looks. The plates bolt right on through the existing holes of the nylon lower links and greatly increase the durability and rigidity of the suspension. They reduce flex in the lower suspension links, allowing the suspension to soak up the bumps and jumps properly. Each pack features four aluminium plates that are in the same shape and profile as the plastic lower links with light weight cut-outs and all the necessary hardware to install them and they are available in blue, black, green, gun metal, and silver.
