CSO T3 2012 servo mount

CSO have produced this new aluminium servo mount for the Xray T3 2012 touring car. Suitable for CSO’s aftermarket T3 chassis, the servo mount is attached only to the centre of the chassis so the servo and the outer edge of the mount don’t touch, and aren’t connected, to the chassis allowing the chassis to flex more evenly without restriction.

Avid vented motor plate for B4.1 & TLR22

Avid RC have released this new vented motor plate for both the B4.1 and TLR22. Take advantage of the unique design of the Avid vented motor plates to improve your buggy or truck. The design team wanted to remove as much weight as possible up high, so they created the 45 degree angled vents which cut completely through the part which removed weight and added much-needed airflow around the motor-plate, yet still maintaining a rigid motor plate to keep gear mesh consistent. 100% milled which avoids all the extra stress that comes from stamping parts in order to keep the motor plates flat and your gear mesh perfect. Each plate is made from black anodized 3mm 6061-T6 aluminium with silver chamfered edge.
