Associated B4/T4 Spur Gears for BL

Associated B4/T4 Spur Gears for Brushless

Associated have released a new pair of spur gears for the B4 and T4 2wd off roaders. Available in 72T and 75T, the new smaller 48 pitch design is for gear ratios used with 17.5, 13.5 and 10.5 brushless stock motors. This allows the use of smaller sized pinion gears, while also moves the motor forward for better balance and more predictable handling. Also compatible with the Losi XXX and XXX-T, with the addition of a separate slipper pad and outer slipper hubs.

Shepherd Velox 2009 Chassis plate

Team Shepherd have announced the release of the new 2009 chassis plate for the Velox. It features a cutout in the front into which an additional 30g weight can be mounted as well as 4 holes on the sides for an additional 70g of weight. By mounting up to 100g on the very bottom of the chassis the centre of gravity is much lower and the performance is increased. It is highly recommended to use the new chassis with the 30g front weight as it increases the stability of the chassis.
