RDRP B7 -1° Alu HD Suspension Mount C

RDRP has added a -1° Aluminium HD Suspension Mount C to its expanding line-up of premium option for the Team Associated RC10B7 and RC10B7D buggy. Compared to the standard suspension mount, this mount is slightly wider and reduces the rear axle toe-in by 1° per side, allowing for 0° toe-in configuration. Unlike the B6.4 version, where a similar suspension mount was offered from RDRP as a D Suspension mount, this is now a C suspension mount. This change does not reduce the vehicle width, and so helps especially on astroturf and carpet tracks to free up the car.

Awesomatix A800 Touring Car new parts release

Awesomatix has just released a number of new parts for its A800 1:10 Electric Touring Car platform. A new Flex Damper set provides an additional torsional flex of the car’s end where it is installed. It also provides the adjustable damping of the chassis’s deformations caused by the torsional flex. The damping level of the FD set is adjusted by choice of the silicone oil inside the damper and by choice of the pivoting hole on the arm of the FD rotor. It is recommended for track conditions where the additional chassis’ flex is needed – usually it is the low traction bumpy tracks and when your available chassis is too stiff for given conditions. The recommendation for initial fluid in FD Set is 50K…100K silicone oil. Oil filling method is the same as for the A12 rear damper – put few drops of the oil on the bottom of AM282, keep AM282 upright for several minutes until all oil reaches the bottom of cavity, insert DT251 into AM282 slowly full way under pushing force and use a needle to provide the excessive oil outing.
