New from Monaco RC is the “Swaybar Box” which is the ideal solution for organising and transporting the anti-roll bars of the Xray X4 2024. Compact in size, it divides into two assignable levels that allow for the separation of used bars from new ones. The levels are equipped with dividers to separate the front bars from the rear ones. To make things even simpler, a colour-contrasting infographic is included.
Following the recent presentation of its Bag Small V2.1 range, MonacoRC has released the Red Bag option with a new inner tray to carry easily and safety the SkyRC SCWS2000 Corner Weight System. The new Bag Small Red V2.1 are distinguished from the previous version for a greater attention to detail with an interior all printed with the MonacoRC logo in red tone on tone and a superior quality of workmanship. Inside, the practical mesh pocket is also red and a MonacoRC label has been applied to embellish it. The exterior maintains that sobriety that made this bag so loved, but for reasons of ease of use the zippers with the MonacoRC logo are now two instead of one. The Weight System Tray has been designed for transporting and protecting, as well as keeping your workbench organised. Essential and functional in design, it features labels describing the positions of the corresponding weights.
MonacoRC has extended its line of bags designed for the transportation of materials for the RC racers. The new MonacoRC Bag Small V2.1 stands out for its attention to detail with the interior adorned with an elegant print featuring the MonacoRC logo in tone-on-tone red, enhancing the quality of the finish. In addition to the practical tone-on-tone red mesh inner pocket (for the Black and Red version), the exterior is enriched with a MonacoRC label, maintaining that elegant simplicity that has made the bag so appreciated. The series is available in three sizes, easily distinguishable by the colour of the zippers. Measuring 16 cm x 12 cm x 5 cm and featuring a Blue Zipper, the small bag is ideal for holding Shorty batteries, motors, DiffCheck, and other similar items.

Biggest of the three at 16cm x 12 cm x 9 cm is the Red Zipper bag.

MonacoRC has introduced this Spring Holder Tray as a solution for organising and neatly transporting springs with the range having an option dedicated to Xray springs. Available in various colors, it can hold up to 10 pairs of springs. It can be used individually in your own garage, but reaches maximum convenience when combined with the “MonacoRC Plastic Case 10×7”, which allows for safe transport to the race tracks. This version is designed for springs with a diameter of 17mm. If used in conjunction with the “MonacoRC Plastic Case 10×7”, the maximum height of the springs is 20mm. Made with high-definition 3D printers, it represents the right choice for those who want to travel light. The Xray Spring Holder Tray features markings for the 8 available hardness options (2.4 – 2.7 / 2.5 – 2.8 / 2.6 – 2.9 / 2.5 / 2.6 / 2.7 / 2.9), as well as two blank spaces for any additional duplicates.
OfficinaRC has released their new ‘Smart Body Tuck – Click Ball Connect’ body stiffener solution. In recent years, body stiffeners have become an almost essential accessory for those who want to use lightweight car bodies. These stiffeners, thanks to their reduced weight, allow ultralight bodies to maintain their aerodynamic shape while driving. OfficinaRC chose to call it “Smart” because it solves one of the most common issues associated with bodies featuring a Body Tuck: space. It is often challenging to stack these bodies. With the use of a carbon fibre rod with two aluminium balls at each end, attaching and removing the stiffeners, whether for stacking bodies or observing their performance on the track with or without stiffeners, will be a breeze. The two aluminium ball joints, made from black anodised aluminium, fit perfectly into the appendages. The appendages, 3D-printed using a resin mixture, ensure impeccable details and excellent resistance to removal and insertion. Each stiffener comes with numbered appendages (1 and 2) that allow you to choose which side to leave exposed for detachment. The Smart Body Tuck is incredibly lightweight, weighing only 1.45 grams per pair, and it comes with ultra-thin pre-cut 3M VHB adhesive for maximum adhesion. It fits on all touring cars, both for side stiffeners and rear wheel arches, and it is compatible with FWD bodies.
MonacoRC has released their new “Pro Level SetUp Board” system, designed to maximise your model’s setup process. Almost everyone uses a setup board to adjust their model, but how many do it correctly? What’s the point of having a reference surface if it’s not used properly? Working on a flat and level surface is crucial for correct geometry setup. While working at home, you can be reasonably sure of working on relatively straight surfaces, but often this is not the case on the track. The “Pro Level SetUP Board” is an aluminium appendage that can be attached to your own SetUp Board. Thanks to adjustable feet, it allows you to level the same Set-up board even when it’s on highly inclined surfaces.
