X-Factory introduce their new Infinity by X-Factory line, a line of hop-ups for other car brands. The first release is a new carbon fibre chassis for the Associated B5M and the line will be expanded soon to include shock towers, new steering systems and other products that take your car to the next level. This new chassis gives the B5M lots more flex and tunability with drivers reporting much better cornering and increased forward bite on all surfaces. Rough tracks require more flex, so loosen some or all of the side deck screws on the Infinity chassis. The forward screws affect front flex, while the rear ones work on the back end. The kit comes complete with the CF chassis, all the other CF parts, aluminium stand-offs, hardware, and instructions.
New for the Associated B5 & B5M from JConcepts comes this aluminium front suspension brace. The machined and anodized aluminium brace is spot on in terms of geometry, fit, finish and position. The edging has been slightly chamfered to remove sharp corners and adds extra luster to an already polished looking piece while the tightened design eliminates extra bulk and weight with deep cutouts. Finally the perimeter ledge has a hefty chamfer which provides slightly more front clearance during hard landings and corning.

Duratrax introduce their new Onyx 110 AC/DC Peak Charger. It peak charges 4-8 cell NiCd or NiMH power packs, but also features a separate jack for 4-, 5- and 8-cell radio batteries. All the modeler has to do is select a charge rate and plug it in, the Onyx 110 does everything else. It starts charging when the pack is connected, switches to trickle rates once peak is reached and does both automatically, for truly “hands-off” charging convenience. And with its compact size and built-in AC power supply, modellers can use it at home or take it to the track with equal ease.
