MCD IBS internal bypass shock system

MCD Racing from Turkey have introduced their all-new IBS internal bypass shock absorbers for their range of off-road and on-road large scale kits. An industry first in the large scale scene, the dampers feature a fully working piggyback reservoir that that acts as a volume compensator for the overflowing oil as the shock absorber compresses. Valves allow for precise compression and rebound control with the compression and rebound circuit featuring auto-adaptive dual-way check valves that allow the oil to by-pass independently. The all-alloy shocks come anodised for looks and wear, they are adjustable externally and come as 64mm or 47mm stroke off-road and 26mm stroke on-road variants.

Capricorn C803 Dynamic upgrade kit

Capricorn RC have introduced the Dynamic upgrade kit for their 1/8th scale C803 chassis. The set consists in a total of three 2mm graphite plates that serve different purposes. The first plate raises the front bulkhead, bringing it higher from the ground in order to improve the steering response entering the corner and raising the corner speed. The other two plates raise the radio tray, so as to reduce the torsional flex bringing the two elements further from each other.
