HPI Cyber 10B Titanium screw set

New from HPI Racing for their Cyber 10B, is this complete titanium screw set. Drop the weight on your Cyber 10B with this fantastic complete set of titanium screws while adding strength and durability. By replacing the standard steel screws with titanium, you can save about 30% of the weight of the stock screws. This gives you faster lap times, more acceleration and even more run time plus apparently less wear on the drivetrain because the motor and gears have less weight to pull around the track.

The lightweight front housing improves air-flow for a lower running temperature, as well as lowering the overall weight of your motor, while the aluminium end cover sports cooling fins to improve the heat dissipation significantly compared to the standard plastic version.
