LRP X22 Stock Spec & N.B. 6.5T Modified motors

LRP have announced the release of a full line of X22 Stock Spec brushless motors as well as the introduction of the X22 N.B. 6.5T modified motor especially for non-boosted modified classes. All motors use a precision-machined 7075-T6 aluminium can with the Stock Spec motors featuring additional machining for improved cooling and a lower weight. A machined window makes way for the laser-etched winding marking, ensuring easy identification while the aluminium backplate with machined pockets further enhances heat dissipation. The motors are rounded off by heavy duty solder tabs. As for the X22 N.B. 6.5T Modified motor, the power plant was developed especially with non-boosted modified racing in mind, a new class that ensures exceptional top speeds that are still manageable for us mere mortals. The motor builds on the X22 Stock Spec and features a 6.5T modified winding, an optimised rotor and adjustable 0 to 60 degree timing.

Trinity aluminium motor screw sets

Coming from Trinity are several aluminium motor screw sets for the 540-class Monster series modified and spec motors. Machined from 7075 high-strength alloy the screws promise a 250+ increase in RPM compared to the stock screws thanks to eliminating magnetic drag while also scrubbing three to four grams of weight. The 6-piece screws sets are available in pink and blue colour and also available is a 3-piece set of silver 48mm stator bolts and a 3-piece set of silver timing ring screws.

Trinity Monster Horsepower even turn mod motors

Coming from Trinity are their new Monster Horsepower even turn modified brushless motors. Designed for all-out power and speed the motors feature an aluminium-based sensor board for true sensor alignment, infinity timing adjustment and 2mm copper taps and thicker pure-copper collectors. Other features include thermal stator coating for best possible heat dissipation, a turbine-style vented nose, additional cooling vents and new 220°C wire coating. A short stack stator sign, new stator material and Grade 5 bearings round out the package. The motors are available in 3.0T to 7.0T windings.

Maclan Racing MRR V2m modified brushless motor

Maclan Racing have introduced their all-new MRR V2m modified class motor, based on their popular MRR Team Edition V2 stock class platform. With a completely redesigned stator and windings, updated end cap, and 12.20mm ultra smooth rotor, the V2m provides much smoother low to mid-range power band. It also reduces weight by an average of twelve percent over its predecessor. Optional 12.50mm rotors for high torque and ultra-high torque are also available for different track conditions and sizes. The V2m is available in 3.5T, 4.5T, 5.0T, 5.5T, 6.0T, 6.5T, 7.0T, 7.5T, 8.5T, 9.5T, and 10.5T variants.

JConcepts motor & rotor storage box

JConcepts has reached into their bag of tricks to help racer organisation with the introduction of their new motor and rotor storage box. The box includes plenty of space for assembled motors, individually spaced rotors and a pocket for miscellaneous motor tuning items. The box has a small footprint which makes it ideal for short trips with minimal amounts of space. Inside the box is roomy enough for three assembled motors and cushioned with high-impact foam that allow the items to lay in a bed like a cradle during rest periods. At the other end, five areas can house rotors and the pocket at the end gives all-important extra storage. The foam insert material has a grabby feel and allows the user to manipulate to grab needed items. The custom built storage box, moulded black in colour has JConcepts.net logo for authenticity and built-in plastic latch for easy open and close operation.

Fantom Icon Pro Modified & Pro Spec motors

Coming soon from Fantom Racing are their new Icon Pro Modified and Pro Spec electric brushless motors. The heart of the motors are the patented design stator and patent pending tuning pins with the two features promising greatly improved performance in terms of torque and RPM. The stator provides maximum torque and RPM while the tuning pins eliminate the need for stator screws while allowing to fine-tune RPM vs. torque. The motor is available in the most coming modified and stock windings and it is widely factory-tuneable in terms of rotors, bearings and other options.
