NathoBuilds XB4 & B74 LCG brass chassis flex plates

New to NathoBuilds is their LCG brass chassis flex plates for the XB4 and B74. The weight attaches directly onto the rear and front chassis brace, replacing the standard carbon fibre braces. This adds weight to the buggy, which can be fine tuned with the ‘pro set’ that will help with the weight of the rear and front of the buggy when using lightweight batteries or when running in bumpy track conditions. The weights can also help to find traction in very low grip conditions while countering traction rolling in very high-bite astro turf or indoor carpet racing. CNC machined from high-quality brass material which is sourced in Australia and is individually hand polished.

Xtreme Aerodynamics She-Rock 1/10 FWD body

Xtreme Aerodynamics have introduced a new 1/10 FWD class body shell, named the She-Rock. Because of the limited power and the understeer nature of this category, deep CFD analysis have been carried out to maximise corner speed and aero efficiency. Every section has been studied to optimise the global flow, bonnet shape, front spoiler, side skirt and roof details are examples. Extensive testing showed a smooth handling, fast transition and optimal aero balance on mid corner resulting in overall performance improvement and consistency.

Tungsten alloy screws from Inertia Screws

Inertia’s Tungsten Alloy formula makes for a very durable and extremely heavy screw, weighing twice that of a standard steel screw. This means you’ll have more weight in the most optimum location possible in the car, the chassis. Adding weight this way will result in a better handling car, a car that is more forgiving and easier to drive and will allow a noticeable increase in corner speed. Available in sizes M3x4, 5, 6, 8, 10mm and 4-40 x 1/4 and 3/8”.
