Ruddog Glitch Buster receiver voltage stabiliser

Ruddog Distribution’s Glitch Buster receiver voltage stabiliser is a small capacitor unit that is made to be plugged into any free receiver channel. It stabilises the receiver battery voltage and prevents voltage drops that can occur when using power-hungry digital servos and that can lead to radio glitches and thus an uncontrolled vehicle behaviour. It is usable with electric and nitro vehicles and especially recommended when using standard voltage receiver batteries and BEC systems.

Trinity Monster Max brushless stock motor

Coming from Trinity is the new Monster Max brushless stock motor. Building on the proven Monster Horsepower motor the Monster Max features the TEP1112 high-torque rotor, a newly designed low-resistance stator, it has the red insulators removed for lower resistance and increased airflow and black thermal epoxy makes for better heat dissipation which leads to a lot less fading of the motor over the run. The ROAR approved power plant is available in 13.5T, 17.5T and 21.5T variants.

Arrowmax 7.6V 6200mAh low profile LiHV battery pack

Coming from Arrowmax is the new 7.6V 6200mAh LiHV low-profile battery pack. Built from high-performance 55C/110C high-voltage Lithium-Polymer cells the battery offers an increased nominal voltage of 7.6V and it can be charged up to a charge end voltage of 8.7V or 4.35V per cell. Even when used with the standard, and often mandatory 8.4V or 4.2V per cell setting, it offers a flatter discharge curve, meaning more power towards the end of the run. The pack utilises 5mm tube-type connectors and it is available now.

Yokomo Racing Performer 6000mAh LCG LiPo battery

Yokomo have introduced their new Racing Performer 6000mAh LCG LiPo battery pack. Made from high-quality 70C/140C cells the battery offers low internal resistance and thus maximum voltage and punch, making it ideal for both Modified and Stock racing classes. On top of this does the low centre of gravity design make for less chassis rolling in corners which can result in faster lap times.

Nosram HD StockSpec brushless speed control

UK Nosram distributors Schumacher have introduced the new HD StockSpec brushless speed control. The HD Stock Spec comes pre-installed with the all-new v5.1 software. This software is adapted to the new hardware and new vital features have been added to make it best possible for today’s need in Stock racing. Initial Drive Feel Compensation (IDFC) has been developed especially with Stock racing in mind to maximise the comfort of initial drive feel over the whole race. Activating IDFC will provide initial drive increments depending on the temperature of the motor. This innovative feature will help to match the same power feeling on throttle over the whole race. Users can either select no compensation or adjust more IDFC to match the desired feeling on throttle after the motor gets hotter and battery weaker. Newly developed Stock parameters for the timing allow to unleash the full power potential in all boosted classes. The new BDX-S break rounds off the package for Stock drivers. Four different brake types including BDX-S are now included, enabling maximum braking power with increased response for pin-point accuracy when entering tight corners. By the time of release, Nosram continues to use its well-known system for trackside adjustments with push buttons, with no need to use a separate programming unit. The Nosram HD speed control series however is designed to support external programming device which is planned to be offered later on.
