New from 1up Racing comes the XT60 to 4mm bullet adapter for DC power cables. The wire helps to easily connect the Pro Pit Iron to any 12-24V power source with 4mm outputs using the XT60 to 4mm adapter. The cable works with most popular power supplies and power stations.
Coming from Trinity are several aluminium motor screw sets for the 540-class Monster series modified and spec motors. Machined from 7075 high-strength alloy the screws promise a 250+ increase in RPM compared to the stock screws thanks to eliminating magnetic drag while also scrubbing three to four grams of weight. The 6-piece screws sets are available in pink and blue colour and also available is a 3-piece set of silver 48mm stator bolts and a 3-piece set of silver timing ring screws.

Maclan Racing have introduced their all-new MRR V2m modified class motor, based on their popular MRR Team Edition V2 stock class platform. With a completely redesigned stator and windings, updated end cap, and 12.20mm ultra smooth rotor, the V2m provides much smoother low to mid-range power band. It also reduces weight by an average of twelve percent over its predecessor. Optional 12.50mm rotors for high torque and ultra-high torque are also available for different track conditions and sizes. The V2m is available in 3.5T, 4.5T, 5.0T, 5.5T, 6.0T, 6.5T, 7.0T, 7.5T, 8.5T, 9.5T, and 10.5T variants.
Yokomo have introduced their new Max Power 6000mAh and 5300mAh LiPo battery packs. Starting with the 6000mAh variant, the battery is built from high-performance 100C-rated cells for maximum power output in modified and stock touring classes. In addition the low centre of gravity design ensures faster cornering compared to a standard height pack due to a lowered overall centre of gravity. The second new pack is an economically-priced 5300mAh battery of standard dimensions and built from high-quality 50C cells. The battery can be used in a variety of classes.
Coming from Team Silverback is their all-new Siren-HV 5500mAh super low centre of gravity LiHV battery pack. Built from 130C graphene-technology cells for a very low internal resistance, high discharge rates, enhanced punch and maximum top speed the battery weighs in at only 235g while offering a standard 139x47mm footprint at a height of only 19.5mm. The pack, that as developed with the help of Germany’s Freddy Südhoff, is ideal for medium-size indoor tracks.

Yokomo have introduced their new RPX-II Drift Spec speed controller that is specially outfitted for demanding drift car racing. Rated at 160A the ESC can even handle high-powered motors and it offers a 6V/7.4V BEC system with up to 6A, allowing to use power-hungry digital servos and gyros alongside without missing a beat. Premium-grade FETs ensure a super low internal resistance for crisp power supply and a specially-tuned firmware with a factory-tweaked basic setup provides a unique control advantage on low-grip surfaces. Using Yokomo’s BL-WM WiFi module or the RPX-II programming box, the speedo’s software features can be individually tuned to meed the driver’s needs. The controller measures 32.9×34.6×19.6mm and it weighs in at 44g.
