OfficinaRC have announce the release of their new LCG universal battery plate, designed to get the most out of the new generation of LiPo batteries. With especially LCG batteries becoming lighter, it is often necessary to add weight to the battery side of the chassis in order to achieve a correct 50/50 left to right weight bias. OfficinaRC’s new 0.6mm brass battery plate weighs in at 32g, allowing to add substantial weight without loosing the advantages of LCG battery packs. The plate can be fixed directly to the chassis or battery, using optional ultra thin tape.
Wild Turbo Fan have introduced their new Blow Harder 30mm fan unit. The 12mm thick fan features an industry first nine exhaust fins design which generates the twisting wind pattern for focused air flow, hence more air to cool the object. With the nine exhaust fins design the support structure between the case and the core has been increased, and together with thicker side walls the case is much stronger compared to a standard 30mm fan. A round lip is also moulded into the intake side of the fan to further smooth out air flow. Last but not least, all the fan unit is manufactured with all new electronics.
Schelle Racing Innovations have introduced a laydown transmission spur guard for the older spec Team Associated B6 buggies. The 3-D-printed part works with the kit B6 laydown motor plate and stops body rubs by keeping the body away from the spur gear. Strategic mount screw locations let drivers remove the spur guard without disassembling the car.

The ultimate advantage for any B6.1 racer, McFactory introduces their new LCG titanium chassis. Measuring out at 0.7mm thinner yet 35g heavier than the original AE chassis, the titanium chassis will provide an advantage especially in high traction conditions where slick tires are used, on astro turf and generally when racing on carpet. The main plate is a direct fit on all B6.1’s and titanium chassis for other brands will be available soon.

RC Maker have introduced their brand new Geo carbon wing endplates for 1/10th touring cars. Light weight and durable, they give a body the ultimate sexy look. Machined pockets give the end plate a 3D geometric look, whilst also maintaining strength and they are meant to increase the car’s stability all round, especially on the straight. The set includes two pairs of endplates that fit most 1/10th touring car rear wings. Please note that some tracks and racing series do not allow the use of carbon fibre parts on the body shells or wings – be sure to check with the organisers before using them.
