Coming from Capricorn are two new ONE brand option parts for the O.S. Speed R21 engine family. Available are a high-precision CNC-machined conrod made from top-grade alloy as well as a tuned backplate that optimises internal mixture flow into the combustion camber. Both parts are available separately and they are usable on all R21 engines.
Coming from Capricorn and made for the C-03 nitro touring car is an engine cooling fan set. The kit includes a CNC-machined aluminium mount that attaches to the radio tray and it also comes with a suitable fan unit that will lower the running temperature of the engine and the glow plug in hot ambient temperatures, which will lead to more precise and reliable engine tuning. Also included in the set are an extension cable and mounting hardware.

Coming from Capricorn and made for the P1-235 Pro10 pan car is a hard rear axle shaft. Machined from harder alloy than stock the shaft also receives further hardening processes to ensure a high degree of durability even when the going gets tough. Furthermore the axle sports a lightened and red anodised diff ring plate as well as a heavy-duty pressure nut thread.

Coming from Capricorn and made for the P1-235 1/10th scale pan car is a new front chassis plate. The updated design allows to move the servo towards the front end of the car, leaving enough room to fit a standard-size LiPo in the battery compartment and not being limited to shorty battery packs. As a result more powerful motors can be used while also allowing to play more with weight distribution.

Capricorn introduce this new set of rear axle mounts for their F1 and Pan Car platforms. The slides allow for a bigger ride height adjustment range and have been conceived to cater for the new, smaller diameter wheels on the market at the moment. The left and rear slides are sold separately.

Capricorn have introduced this new set of front upper arm mounts for the C803. The new mounts are 1.5mm higher than the standard version. This makes it so that the lower position obtainable with the eccentric inserts is the same height as the central position on the old version, while the higher position allows for a lower roll centre than before. The new mounts also limit the caster adjustment range, and are therefore meant to be used with the new shorter arm pins.
