Kyosho Fazer FZ02 Mk2 semi-assembled kit

Kyosho have announced the soon release of their new Fazer FZ02 Mk2 semi-assembled 4WD electric touring car kit. Based off of the proven Fazer Mk2 the semi-assembled kit can act as a base for own projects with several optionals allowing for higher powered motors and batteries. The kit comes semi-assembled with the drivetrain and upper and lower arms already in place. Included in the kit come optionals such as an aluminium centre driveshaft, front aluminium and steel CV-style driveshafts as well as a transponder mount and multi-functional body mounts that allow to utilise a wide range of body shell shapes. Also part of the package are an aluminium motor spacer for improved heat dissipation, oil-filled shock absorbers as well as wheel hubs for 190mm or 200mm width settings. The kit comes “dry”, meaning drivers can choose their own diff and damper oils and it will hit stores in May.

T-Works T4 & BD10/9 14g tungsten balance weight

Coming from T-Works and made for the use with the Xray T4 and Yokomo BD10 and BD9 touring cars is a 14g tungsten balance weight. Made of super-heavy tungsten material the weight is compact yet very heavy for its size, making it the ideal balance weight for the machined under-battery chassis pocket opposite the motor. It attaches using a factory-applied adhesive tape and it comes in handy especially when running lightweight low-profile battery packs. The weight is usable with the T4 2020 down to the 2018 kit as well as the Yokomo BD10 and the older BD9.

Yokomo BD10 brass clamping wheel hubs

Yokomo have announced the release of their new brass clamping wheel hubs for the BD10 touring car. Weighing in at 5.45g per set and thus being about 3.6g heavier than the standard aluminium adapters, the brass parts will increase unsprung weight which can be beneficial in certain track conditions, such as outdoor tracks. The hubs allow to increase traction on the respective end of the car, allowing to mix and match them with their alloy counterparts with a heavier front making for improved corning while in the rear, the brass hubs can improve stability. The hubs use a 4.0mm offset which is the same as the standard aluminium hubs and they come in sets of two.
