It is ideal for modified touring cars and offroad buggy on small to medium sized tracks. Replacing the previous 4000mAh model, this battery will gain additional runtime and provide consistent power.

Core RC grease line

Core RC’s new line-up of grease has been extensively tested by the Schumacher engineering department and factory race team to have you covered for all applications and comes supplied in larger than normal 10ml pots. First up is the red high performance lithium complex grease which is best for lubrication of plastic gears, universal joints and driveshaft bone pins/blades and diff output interfaces. Suitable for a higher temperature than the multi purpose grease. Next up is the silicone ball diff grease, for use on the main balls of a diff. Stable and consistent for many runs, it is made from 100% pure silicone. The multi purpose lithium grease is a general purpose lower cost lithium grease, suitable for plastic gears, universal joints and metal interfaces. Finally there is the molybdenum or better known as moly grease, mainly used for thrust races in ball diffs but also good for metal gears and CVD’s for its high loading properties. Not to be used on plastics.

JConcepts Animal & Hawk SCT tires

One of the best ways to sling the dirt and sand is with the new Animal and Hawk tires by JConcepts. The Animal is a large height, paddle rear tire, cutting through the dust, sand and dirt while spraying rooster-tails against the competition. The 3.0” x 2.2” carcass has strategically placed upper paddles with a scoop shape to thrust into any patch of terrain and blow right through it. One of the details is the smooth carcass with mock cut-off paddle sections which is a common sight in 1:1 tires. The Hawk multi-rib front tires are directional and meant to cut-through the loam and silt dirt. The 3.0” x 2.2” narrowed carcass has strategically placed radius ribs in a step-up fashion to give turning traction during different depths of surface conditions. Both tires are for Short Course trucks and 1:1 inspired to provide best in class looks and performance. Available loose or pre mounted for Slash.

JConcepts aluminium 20mm clamping servo horns

New for the Mugen MBX8 & Team Associated RC8B3.2, this JConcepts 20mm servo horn is available in both 23T and 25T versions. A clamping style servo horn, it is great for high-torque situations providing additional security and relieving some load to the servo splines themselves. The broad base of the horn tapers to the connection area where the steering takes place. The boss on the top surrounds the ball-end and provides a hefty surface for steering direction. Small ribs have been added on the sides to help strengthen the unit in a twisting fashion and a deep pocket hides the 3mm standard mounting screw. The entire horn has been retouched with chamfer highlight edging and laser etched with JC and the tooth count for high-end looks and authenticity.
