Xray have introduced new graphite composite lower rear arms for the XB4 buggies. Moulded from a specially-formulated composite material the arms are the perfect choice for high-grip track conditions as they are less prone to flex compared to the standard composite wishbones. The result is increased stability and corner speed. The arms are available separately for the left and right hand site.

Exotek have introduced new optional parts for the TLR 22 SR and Tekno EB410 1/10th scale off-road buggies. First up is a set of Puck diff outdrives for the TLR 22 SR. The conversion outdrive cups for the SR diff allow to use the diff with the popular MIP pucks and roller bones. The parts replace the stock plastic outdrives of the 22 SR diff with heavy-duty hard-anodised 7075 aluminium cups for longer lasting stock racing performance when combined with optional MIP pucks or rollers. The stock TLR 22 bones are not compatible and 67mm length Puck bones are recommended for the 22 4.0.
Xray have introduced their eccentric ball bearings clamps for the X1 and X12 cars. The rear axle mounts allow to adjust the wheelbase for a short and a long setting, differing by 1mm. The black-coated alloy parts do not use composite hubs for the bearings and generally a shorter wheelbase car rotates faster in slow corners and has improved forward traction whereas a longer car is freer in high-speed corners and will feel more linear, especially during fast direction changes. The clamps fit the X1 and X12 cars and they come in pairs.

Coming from Hiro Seiko and made for the Sanwa M17 transmitter is a lightweight screw kit. Machined from 7075-T6 aluminium and available in five different colours the set will reduce the overall weight of the radio by nearly 6g while adding visual impact at the same time. The 19-piece screw kit is available in red, orange, dark blue, light blue and titanium silver colour.
Following their successful 1/10th 200mm World Championship winning campaign, Infinity has released a new optional hard chassis as used by their drivers during the Miami event. Featuring a stiffer rear section, this results in both increased traction and response compared to the standard IF15 kit chassis.

Xpress have introduced their new aluminium layshaft bulkhead for the Execute XQ1S and XM1S on-road kits. The part replaces the standard items for alloy pieces to increase rigidity when opting to run higher power motors. The alloy bulkheads will ensure the layshaft stays straight under hard acceleration and braking. The set includes two red anodised alloy bulkheads that are a direct replacement.

Coming from SWorkz and made for the S35-GT kit is a laydown shock tower conversion. The set includes 5mm Pro-composite carbon fibre shock extensions that attach to the front and rear lower arms, moving the lower shock mounting position further out by 15mm. Using the conversion will improve corner speed especially on high-speed tracks. Also included in the set are optimised front and rear carbon fibre shock towers to support the new suspension geometry and it is rounded off by suitable mounting hardware.
T-Works have introduced new front and rear top decks for the Schumacher Cat L1 1/10th 4WD off-road buggy. Available separately the upper decks come in 2.0mm, 2.5mm or 3.0mm specification, allowing to fine-tune the chassis’ flex characteristics to your liking. The different thicknesses can also be mixed and matched for even greater influence on the front and rear chassis twist.
