Fenix 1/10th formula gear differential

Fenix 1/10th formula gear differential

Fenix have issued a first image of their forthcoming gear differential for 1/10th formula cars. Coming for 6mm and 1/4″ rear axles the diff is designed to replace the standard ball differential as found on pretty much every formula kit out there. Offering a ball-raced and very narrow design the diff will allow for some fine-tuning using different greases from what is understood. A definite release date is not set yet but according to Fenix the diff, that is on show on the forthcoming Hobby Model Expo in Milan, will become available by the end of the year.

Fenix Mistral 1/10th scale Formula kit

Fenix Mistral 1/10th scale Formula kit

Following a recent teaser Fenix now have first images of their forthcoming Mistral 1/10th scale Formula pan car kit available. Designed to offer the lowest possible centre of gravity the vehicle builds on a high-quality 2.5mm quasi isotropic carbon fibre chassis that allows for three different battery positions; a longitudinal as well as a front or rear transversal one. When a low-profile shorty LiPo is used additional weights can be placed on the chassis to obtain the best possible weight balance. Up front a redesigned suspension allows for easy rigidity adjustment and independently adjustable camber and caster settings. The car will become available as a full kit, including genuine Tuning Haus alloy chassis posts, and also as an upgrade set for the already existing Suzuka kit.

Fenix 1-piece differential joint for Formula cars

Fenix 1-piece differential joint for Formula cars

Italian company Fenix Racing introduce a 1-piece differential shaft for 1/10th scale Formula 1 cars. Made for Tamiya-style 6mm rear axles the part is machined from 7075-T6 aluminium and it offers a longer thread to allow the use of taller M4 self locking nuts. This in turn improves reliability and allows to use a larger number of diff springs. To minimise weight the contact area for the inner diff plate has been milled down to the smallest possible diameter while the precise machining of the whole parts ensures super true running.
