For the Infinity IF14-2, Creation Model have released this Double Joint CVD shaft set. This set uses the short type (41mm) front drive shaft rather than the kit standard front drive shaft (42mm). The result is a more linear steering feel, making the car easier to drive when used in high traction or oversteer situations. The shorter shaft is also available separately.

As the monster truck segment evolves, options are key and with a range of sizing, wheelbase requirements, the Escalade by JConcepts fits several trucks currently on the market, including the Losi LMT. On the design side, the dramatic grille is placed front and centre with the stunning and tall front headlights to create an impact. In the world of SUV’s there is nothing more iconic than the look and stance of the Escalade. The high-slope windshield angle cuts through the air with a tightly compressed rails on top to channel air over the large cab and rear enclosure. The SUV allows a lot of space for doors and windows but also decoration space for paint and decal schemes. Following the fenders along the door lines, the Escalade is rather slim and upright and the built-in trim on the panels creates a rather accurate and durable design. The fender flares are larger in size to accommodate the monster truck sized tires like Renegades, Firestorms, Golden Years and JCT’s. The rear gate section has body lines for a large rear window and impression area for license plate blending into a wrap-around style rear bumper. Included in each body set, a clear and heavy-duty polycarbonate body, decal sheet and the paint mask for all windows.

Axial have introduced another first with the 1/10 scale RBX10 Ryft 4WD. This ready-to-run vehicle lets any RC driver experience the thrills of rock bouncer off-road action. Full-size rock bouncers refuse to stop, or even back down on the throttle, when facing steep climbs and massive rocks. So does the RBX10 Ryft 4WD. The robust, custom tube chassis is engineered from a high-strength composite plastic that withstands the hard knocks of RC off-roading, even while moving at the high speeds produced by a strong powertrain featuring a 4S-capable, 2200Kv brushless motor. Both the front and rear axles boast a rugged two-piece, solid axle design. Licensed Interco TSL Bogger tires on Raceline wheels, aided by long travel front and rear shocks, do their part to tame wild off-road tracks. These features, along with a full-time 4WD transmission, make the RBX10 Ryft a fun vehicle to send over the trails at full throttle.
