GForce Mini Break-in system

GForce introduce the Mini Break-in system for mini and micro-size brushed motors. Designed for the use with Tamiya’s Mini 4WD series of “slot cars”, the system is also usable for the brushed motors found in Kyosho’s Mini-Z or HPI’s Micro RS4 line of vehicles. The motor run-in system is housed in a sturdy case with a jog dial to adjust the output voltage and also a timer that stops the run-in process after a certain time. A non-slip foam pad and a velcro strap prevent the chassis or motor from moving around and the break-in device is powered by four AA-size batteries or an optional power supply.

Available now from TLR and made for the 22-4 4WD buggy are two new rear pivot blocks.

Team C TC10 hard steering knuckles & rear hubs

Team C have more hard compound suspension parts available for the TC10 touring car kit. Following reinforced front and rear lower A-arms and C-hubs the company will soon also release hard steering knuckles and rear hubs. The parts come in handy when racing in high ambient temperatures or on high-bite tracks as the special composite material tends to flex less, resulting in a more precise steering feeling and improved rear traction. The suspension parts come as pairs and are direct replacements with the steering knuckles also offering an updated geometry with new steering Ackermann settings and added arm length.

JQ Racing THECar hard suspension arms

JQProducts THECar hard suspension arms

Made for the THECar White Edition 1/8th off-road buggy are the new hard compound front and rear suspension arms from JQ Racing. Using the parts in hot ambient temperatures will add stability and precision but the harder parts are also worth a try in normal temperatures as they can lead to a more stable feel of the buggy. The A-arms are sold as pairs for the front and the rear of the car.
