Fenix Racing Classique 2 F1 chassis

Fenix Racing have introduce the Classique 2, a follow up to their chassis designed specifically for the brand’s Classique line of F1 bodyshells. The biggest improvement over its predecessor is the ability to use the most popular LiPos, from Super Shorty, to Shorty to LCG Shorty. Another improvement is now a simpler rear end, where the torsion setting is handled via a single setup screw, replacing the damper and springs system used on the previous version. The rear end features a narrower track, for a better grip, while the typical 60’s short wheelbase is retained. Of course, Classique 2 is fully compatible to the existing Fenix Classique bodies. The Classique 2 and F1-70 are meant to be the backbone for the Fenix Collectors Series, which us planned to be released later this year.

Fenix Racing Mistral 2.0 options & wrenches

Fenix Racing introduce a number of new parts for their Mistral 2.0 formula car. First up are the LMP side wings that, when used with parts from the G56, accommodate the use of different links to tune the handling of the car. Additionally there are several new body post locations to fit LMP, Group C or GT3 style bodies and also allow for the use of longer side dampers or side shocks. There are also new formula side wings that provide the option to use different links to setup the car. Next up is a longer carbo Ackermann plate for additional steering settings and finally there is also a new front end brace for the Mistral 2.0. The brace helps improve the front end rigidity for better and sharper steering. Fenix also have two new turnbuckle wrenches in 3mm and 4mm versions, which are pretty cool with their carbon fibre and blue anodised aluminium handles.

Fenix Racing G12 1/12th scale chassis

Fenix Racing have introduced their new G12 1/12th scale chassis featuring the company’s V-link rear suspension. The G12 has been tested in different environments and tracks, in Europe and Japan, with a huge development done by Mr. Kimihiko Yano and his team. The rear end sports 5 different roll centres positions, to grant you the most precise setup, to get the most from your rear tyres. Multiple side links are used to set the rear bump steer in the best way possible and for the front end they tested several solutions, but nothing come close to the CRC front end. Camber, caster and dynamic caster, everything is easy to work on and on top of that, the CRC front end has proven to be super reliable.
