Hiro Factory HRF10X-PB heavy duty C-ADJ-S brackets

Hiro Factory have introduced new heavy duty C-ADJ-S brackets for the HRF10X-PB formula car. Machined from high-quality 7075 aluminium and coming in a dark gun metal finish for wear and looks, the brackets are of a beefier design for improved rigidity and more precise and consistent camber and caster setting, even after taking a heavy hit during a run. The set includes a left and a right hand bracket that are direct replacements for the original parts.

Precision-cut from high-quality carbon fibre the shock stay features 1mm higher upper shock mounting positions, increasing suspension up travel and preventing the shocks from bottoming out. The result is better and more predictable car handling on bumpy tracks and during high-speed cornering. The shock tower is a direct fit.

7075.it A800MMX LCG battery weight

Coming from 7075.it and made for the Awesomatix A800MMX is a 47g LCG battery weight. Only 1.1mm thick in total the weight fits snuggly into the machined slots of the original MMX chassis and also 7075.it’s own optional flex main plate, ensuring a very low overall centre of gravity while adding weight when needed. The battery weight comes in handy when running the latest generation of lightweight LCG or ULCG battery packs and due to its interlocking design, it doesn’t come loose during a run while allowing the chassis to flex freely at the same time.

Factory Team precision-ground diff rings

Coming from Associated Electric’s Factory Team brand are precision-ground diff rings for 2.60:1 ball diffs. The precision comes from a flatter, tighter tolerance diff ring that will result in smoother diff operation and longer life, therefore increasing time between rebuilds. The rings are a direct upgrade for #7666 diff drive rings and they fit RC10B4 to B6 series, SC5M and SC6.1, RC10T4.1 to T6.1, and all SC10s buggies and trucks using ball diffs.

H2 Racing Development TRF420MM flex top deck

Coming from H2 Racing Development and made for their Tamiya TRF420MM mid motor conversion kit is a flex top deck. Machined from 2.0mm high-quality carbon fibre the top deck is of a flex design with a cut front end section, resulting in improved overall chassis flex for the use on low to medium traction tracks. The upper deck will become available by early March. Also coming soon is a cross-shaped carbon fibre chassis stiffener that will increase rear traction of TRF420MM and TRF419MM converted cars.

Tekno NB48 2.0 aluminium throttle servo horn

Tekno RC have announced the release of a new aluminium throttle servo horn for the NB48 2.0 nitro buggy. The new heavy duty horn eliminates the possibility of the servo horn stripping, coming off, or the brake and throttle going out of adjustment and causing a runaway. The laser-etched servo horn is made from aluminium and inherently much less likely to strip or flex, but it also clamps and grips the servo output shaft tightly to help prevent it from falling off or losing adjustment. In addition, this new servo horn is designed with a slight angle between the brake and throttle lever, which provides a more consistent braking force through the servo’s rotation. The aluminium horn is a direct replacement for the stock composite horn, it uses the same 5x8x2.5mm bearings and brake linkage, it is made for the use on the 2.0 series of nitro vehicles and comes in 23T or 25T specification.

Carisma Scale Adventure 55g brass weight

Carisma Scale Adventure have announced the release of their new 55g brass battery weight for the SCA1E trail truck. Designed as a direct fit for the truck’s battery compartment, the brass plate will add valuable weight over the front axle, improving traction and climbing performance of the rig without having to add wheel weights which can bring with them some negative effects in certain conditions. The weight measures 138x23x2mm and it is stackable, allowing to add multiple pieces if desired.

7075.it introduce new A800 optionals

7075.it have announced the release of new optional parts for the Awesomatix A800 series of touring cars. First up is a brass shorty battery holder set for the A800MMXA kit. Designed for the use with LCG or standard height packs the kit only fits the Awesomatix C01B-X-MMA mid-motor alloy chassis as well as the 7075.it flex version 7075-AWX-MMW and 7075-AWX-MM main plates and it is usable with the original Awesomatix battery hold downs or 7075.it’s new tape system battery holder. The design of the battery locators allows the chassis to flex freely while moving the weight as close to the chassis plate as possible for an overall lower centre of gravity. In addition the mounting holes are raised by 0.5mm to not disturb chassis flex. The battery holder set is recommended especially for high-bite surfaces like ETS or CRC black carpet.
