New from Tekin comes the T8i 1/8th buggy indoor brushless motor. It is packed with the same features as the conventional T8 series of motors but the ‘i’ version is lighter of weight and smaller in size helping to lower the vehicle’s weight for a more nimble and agile handling on tight indoor tracks. Sporting a diameter of 38mm and a length of 67mm the motor weights 274g and offers a 6061 aluminium heatsink can, dual plug sensor wire harness, sintered Neodymium magnets and oversized ABEC5 bearings. The T8i will become available as 1350kv, 1600kv, 1950kv and 2700kv variant soon.

Novak’s newest modified racing 540-size brushless motors have arrived. The Vulcan Mod motors are an all-new motor series from Novak developed to offer a balanced, smooth delivery of power and speed. Vulcan Mod motors take the proven high-RPM stator blank and use new combinations of Novak’s pure-copper Red Wire to offer racers an updated and improved modified motor platform. Not only are the end bells and stators new, but Novak engineers have fine-tuned the winding and wire specifications. This new wire sizing and high-RPM stator have proven to be extremely easy to drive. Vulcan Mod motors work with the entire line of tuning rotors, but include the king of efficiency, the 12.3mm neo rotor.

JConcepts introduces an all new aluminium timing cover accessory for the Reedy Sonic motor. The aluminium acts as an additional heat sink transferring heat to an additional surface spreading the heat out over more area. The timing cover also has increased depth which allows more sensor wire plug protection in the event of a crash or collision. The timing cover is CNC machined, available in blue and black colors and includes upgraded hardware for installation. In addition, each cover also includes a molded sensor wire holder and hardware which routes wires in the up position which decreases possible wire snags or drop-outs which lead to unfinished races. Available in anodised blue or black.
Vampire Racing introduce the Type AB+ V2 line of electric brushless motors. Based on the experience gained with the original Type AB+ motors the new V2 offers easier maintenance, increased performance and a cool new look. Designed to meet current IFMAR, EFRA and ROAR rules the Type AB+ V2 is of a fully rebuildable design with separate stator unit and features a new duo-balanced and Titanium-Nitride coated ‘black shaft’ rotor, a replaceable rubber-sealed precision sensor unit and oversized high-quality ball bearings. The motors come in a range of windings including 6.5T. 7.5T and 8.5T with on-road specific 4.5T nd 5.5T variants becoming available soon.

Novak introduce the new Vulcan Spec and Outlaw brushless motors. Based on the proven Ballistic platform the new motors feature a redesigned stator, new endbells, and updated options to make for the highest possible performance. Coming in two variants for sanctioned and outlaw races the Vulcan Spec is build using the largest wire permitted for spec racing classes while the Outlaw sports Novak’s new ULR ultra-low-resistance stator for maximum copper fill and power in ‘outlaw’ racing. Both motors are available as 10.5T, 13.5T, 17.5T and 21.5T variant.
