Team Orion Experience 2 brushless system

Designed for ease of use and maximum power, Team Orion have released their new Experience 2 brushless system, which are available in the Carbon and the even more powerful Titanium edition. For best results, the ESC and motor is bought and installed as a combo, but both products are also available separately. The Experience 2 Carbon brushless system is made to have fun: no complicated setup procedures, no soldering but real plug&play – and this in combination with great look! Choose the 17, 18 or a 19 turn motor and together with the all new 70A Experience 2 ESC you have the perfect brushless combination in your hands. Although it looks like the first Experience ESC, the Experience 2 ESC has been redesigned from scratch. It handles 70A instead of 40A and is equiped motor-side with gold connectors and battery-side with the Tamiya style connector. The ESC is ready for 2S and 3S LiPo batteries and can be equipped with an additional cooling fan for even more power. The motor is a completely new design, too. It was developed to deliver best performance and reliability. It features multiple mounting holes and is held together by screws like racing motors. With the Titanium system you go one step further: the ESC is equipped with Deans plugs and a cooling fan and the motors are available with 14, 15 or 16 turns in a full metal case construction. Of course, also this system is LiPo ready (2S and 3S) and is all products can be sold separately or as combo.

Nosram VTEC LiFe RX packs & CPX tires

Nosram have introduced a number of new items including their new line up of VTEC LiFe receiver packs and their VTEC pre glued Carpet tires. The batteries are a combination of today’s most used battery types, the robustness and impact resistance of NiMh batteries combined with the capacity, long lifetime and weight advantage of a LiPo battery. They also impress with a higher number of charge cycles and higher cell safety compared to LiPos and the further advantage is that it can be used without an extra RX-regulator. The new VTEC CPX tires offer a newly developed high-traction tire specially for indoor carpet racing. The pre-glued tire features a special low-profile design, which prevents traction-roll on medium to high-grip tracks. With the new CPX pre-glued carpet tire, Nosram also offers a wheel for carpet touring car racing that guarantees 100% controlled racing. The answer to all tyre cheating possibilities are the semi-transparent rims, through which you see the inside of the rims, the result is no cheating.
