KAOS Reeper wheelie bar, chassis & springs

KAOS Advance Tuning distributors Robitronic have introduced a range of option parts for the CEN Racing Reeper 1/7th scale monster truck. First up is an adjustable wheelie bar set. Its design allows to set the tilt angle at 40 degrees or 45 degrees and it comes including ball-raced wheels and mounting hardware, making it a direct fit. Next up is a carbon fibre chassis plate made from 3.5mm sheet material. The hard compound graphite makes for extremely high rigidity while still being light of weight, upping the overall performance and looks of the truck.

CEN Racing Colossus XT RTR electric monster truck

US CEN Racing distributors HRP have introduced the US-exclusive Colossus XT mega monster truck. Based off of the Reeper monster truck but with a different name and colour scheme the Colossus sports a massive footprint of 750x480mm and it weighs in at 7kg. A dual vertical plate chassis frame and a heavy duty drivetrain with oversized driveshafts make for enormous strength that is needed to tame the 1450kv brushless motor that is coupled to a 150A Hobbywing speed controller. The truck is powered by dual 2S LiPo battery packs although a dual 3S setup is possible without reliability issues. 25mm diameter shock absorbers soak up imperfections in the terrain and genuine Savöx steering servo helps to get the massive truck on track. The kit is rounded out by a 3-channel 2.4GHz radio system.
