Muchmore Fleta ZX V2 Type-ER brushless motor

Following the introduction of the Fleta ZX V2 Modified and Fleta ZX V2 Sting Stock outlaw brushless motors Muchmore now also released information on the IFMAR, ROAR and EFRA legal Type-ER motor. It makes use of the same Flow-Max 2 aluminium can that improves cooling efficiency by about 15 percent compared to Muchmore’s former motors while the new high-power stator design, without separate insulator, further increases cooling while also lowering the weight at the same time. Other features include super low resistance copper windings, heavy-duty silver-plated solder tabs and a precision-balanced Neodymium high-temperature rotor. The ER Spec stock motor is available in 10.5T to 25.5T winding variants.

Trion V2 modified brushless motors

Japanese brand Trion have introduced their new V2 series 540-size sensored electric brushless motor. The power plant is of a new design that revolves around a high-airflow can with huge cooling openings around the front section while machined openings in the stator area further increase the airflow in this area. This leads to a much cooler motor towards the end of a run and thus reduced fading and more stable performance. An updated stator further adds to the overall performance with increased torque and reduced heat build-up. The motor is rounded out by a new rotor and available from now on in a 5.0T touring and a 6.5T off-road variant with additional 4.5T to 8.5T variants coming later in July.

RC-Cox 5mm LiPo battery safety plugs

PPM RC Racing have introduced the new RC-Cox 5mm LiPo battery safety plugs. Made from a soft material the plugs were designed to cover the unused openings of through-type LiPo battery connector tubes, keeping them from becoming dirty and damaged while also avoiding putting the battery in the car the wrong way around which can result in short circuits during hectic plug in routines. The plugs are easy to remove yet strong enough to not fall off even when the going gets tough and they come in sets of ten, enough to outfit five 5mm connector battery packs.
