Fenix TC7.2 Flexy’n’sexy aluminium chassis

Coming from Fenix Racing and made for the Team Associated TC7.2 touring car is the new Flexy’n’sexy aluminium chassis. Just 84mm wide and weighing in at 82g the chassis was developed to generate less flex than a conventional carbon fibre chassis, yet offering more twist than a full-face aluminium item, resulting in just about the right flex for medium to high-bite racing conditions. The main plate is machined from high-quality aluminium and it features machined silver edge details and a dark surface coating.

Fenix G56 200mm & 235mm pan cars

Fenix have introduced their new G56 1/10th pan car platform that includes 200mm World GT and 235mm Pro10 cars. Both cars are available in conventional 256mm wheelbase pivot rear suspension design or as 275mm wheelbase V-link/Quad-link variant with the latter being very popular for high-powered Pro10 cars. From default the pivot cars are usable with transversal or inline shorty packs while the V-link cars also accept standard touring car packs. Both cars share as many components as possible including the all-new front end consisting of flex-adjustable 2.5mm carbon fibre lower arms and a 2.5mm upper beam. Also the chassis can be swapped between the two versions, allowing to build a LWB pivot or SWB V-link car. The kits are available with a high-torque ball or easy-to-use gear differential – both of which rely on titanium axles for a low weight, precision and durability – and they are available from now on.

Fenix Classique 60’s Formula car kit

Fenix officially introduced their new Classique late 1960’s 1/10th scale formula pan car kit at last weekend’s EOS/European Reedy Race double header. Resembling the iconic 2500mm wheelbase wing-less cars, the Classique utilises a 250mm wheelbase for scale looks and driving performance. Despite the retro appearance, the kit makes use of high-end materials such as 2.5mm carbon fibre parts, a 7075 aluminium motor mount and a titanium differential as known from Fenix’s Mistral kit. The “60” is the first in a line of different models and it will become available as pure kit and also as Collectors Edition with a fully painted body shell and detailed driver and motor areas. The release date is set for late September to mid-October.
