Schelle RC8B3.1 2-row carbon rear tower

Schelle Racing Innovations’ 2-row carbon fibre rear shock tower was developed for both the electric and nitro RC8B3.1 series buggy and offers a a second upper row of mount holes to move the entire shock when running a low roll centre on the rear hubs. Having the hinge pin close to the rear axle, commonly called “hubs down” will be shifting the shock along with the axle height on the rear hinge pin, giving the advantage of more up-travel. In bumpy conditions on hard cornering, the additional travel helps the tyres to navigate the surface without bottoming the shock and upsetting the chassis. The lower row of holes matches the kit geometry and is intended for running in the HRC axle height on the rear hub. The tower is cut from 4mm material, it has a no-pockets design to prevent delimitation and large hole spacing increases durability. The tower fits RC8B3.1, 3.1e, and older RC8B3 versions.

Xray X1 independent rear wing mount set

Coming from Xray and made for the X1 formula car kit is the independent rear wing mount set. The set allows to install the rear wing fully independently from the rear pod plate ensuring the wing stays in the same position as the chassis despite the rear power pod movement which helps to improve the car’s stability while increasing rear traction. The rear wing mount plate features holes for wing mounting in exactly the same positions as the standard wing mount, ensuring the aerodynamics remain the same when switching between the standard and independent mount. The set can be used either with the rear gear differential or ball differential and the wing mount has multiple positions which allow higher or lower mounting of the rear wing to adapt to traction, conditions, and racing surfaces.
