Coming from Darkside Designs and made for the Team Associated B6.1 is a lightweight battery hold down. The carbon fibre battery locators utilise sturdy rubber O-rings to keep the battery pack in place with the overall design scrubbing about 4.6g of weight compared to the standard mount, making it ideal for all weight-saving 17.5T racers. The kit includes gold-colour hardware and it is available now.
Made for the Tamiya M07 M-chassis and coming from Yeah Racing are new reversible rear hubs that allow to switch between 210mm and 225mm wheelbase settings. The clever design not only allows to easily change wheelbase settings but in addition it retains the upper camber link ball stud position, meaning there is no need to adjust the setting when swapping over the hubs. The parts come black anodised, with machined silver edge details and including a hardware package.
Pro-Spec have released two new battery balance weights in 54g and 37g specification. The 54g weight measures 138.5×46.5x1mm and thus it is ideal for all cars using standard-size LiPo packs while the smaller 37g weight measures 95.5×46.5x1mm, ideal for all cars, buggies and trucks using shorty-type batteries. The weights come machined from high-quality brass material, they sport a natural finish and engraved ProSpec logos. Using the weights will help to either achieve an optimised overall chassis balance or to add weight when running the latest generation of lightweight LCG batteries.

Coming from 1up Racing are their new high-strength servo mounting screws. Machined from ultra-strong U.S. 7075-T6 aluminium and coming black anodised and with a mirror-like chamfer, the screws fit snuggly into the servo’s outer lashes thanks to a 4.2x2mm neck that keeps the servo in place even in hard crashes. With their 7.8mm outer diameter and 4mm threads the screws, that come in packs of four, fit the most popular servos used with 1/10 cars.

Coming from Exotek and made for Tekno RC’s NB/EB48 series of vehicles are heavy duty aluminium steering spindles and rear hub carriers. The HD 7075 alloy steering spindles and rear hubs for the EB48.4 and NB48.4 series ensures consistent suspension performance and handling and they are extra durable for high-powered applications and polished and anodised in glossy Tekno team colours for that factory look. The spindles and rear uprights are available as separate sets and they match the stock geometry.
Coming from Icon RC and made for their ultraflex chassis series is a 38g battery weight. Designed specifically to further lower the overall centre of gravity the weight is only 0.5mm thick, yet it adds 38g of weight which will result in increased stability when running on high grip carpet or asphalt tracks. Designed to fit snuggly into the milled sections of the chassis, the weight will not interfere with the natural chassis flex and it is available for the Team Associated TC7.2 and the new Infinity IF14 chassis.
Samix have introduced their new 2.25mm carbon fibre chassis kit for the Xray T4’19 touring car. Of an updated design the chassis is made of matte finish carbon fibre and it offer additional mounting positions for the recently introduced optional brass front balance weights. On top of that the chassis comes with a black anodised aluminium fan mount for 40mm fan units.
R1 Wurks have announced the launch of the new 1650 option rotor for the V21 line of motors. The selected rotors offers 1625 to 1650+ Gauss reading, which is slightly higher than the company’s stock rotors for improved torque. The ROAR-approved rotor, much like the 1650 for the V16, includes the needed shims, as well as a printout of the rotor’s gauss reading.
