Xray Lightweight Centre Diff Outdrive adapters

Xray now offers lightweight CNC-machined centre diff outdrive adapters. Made from Hudy toughened steel, the outdrives have been strategically machined to be lighter than the standard outdrive adapters. CNC-machined on precision German long-turn machines they have been additionally ground and strategically lightened to reduce rotating weight, then further hardened to ensure maximum strength and extra-long lifespan. Final precision hand-grinding ensures a very high tolerance and a tight fit in the diff body and diff gear.

LRP BEC, Engine Monoblock & Starter box

Three releases that we skipped over earlier in the week from LRP are a new heavy duty BEC, one-piece aluminium engine mount and new competition starter box. The BEC is a new extremely strong voltage regulator for use with LiPo receiver batteries in nitro models and works perfectly with heavy cars and powerful servos, such as those found in 1/5th – 1/8th scale models. The new one-piece blue anodized aluminium motor mount for the S8-BX and S8-TX stiffens up the chassis around the engine and of course enables a quick engine removal and remounting. Finally, similar to the one released by Nosram on Friday, LRP have also released their new Spec.2 compact and lightweight starter box that has a new higher positioned starter wheel for more precise car positioning and faster starts.

Picco P-Zero MRX-4 Transmission kit

Italian company Picco, most famous for their engines, have started a new line of optionals called ‘P-Zero optional parts’. Their first product is this lightweight transmission kit for the Mugen MRX-4 1/8th scale, the same car company head Alberto Picco used to win the recent Worlds warm up race. The set, which can also be used with the Kyosho M3 (apart from the solid rear axle), includes the front and rear axles, 4 wheel nuts, 2 front drive cups, the rear solid axle and a set of 8 shims. All parts are made with high quality material and accurately machined to ensure the best match with the current drive shafts. The P-Zero line will also soon include a 1/8th scale on-road clutch, but more details to come on that later.
