Roche Rapide P12-2016 alloy chassis & pod plate

Roche have introduced an aluminium chassis and lower motor pod plate for the Rapide P12-2016 1/12th scale kit. Both parts are machined from 2.5mm 7075-T6 aluminium and they come gun metal anodised and with silver chamfered edges for looks. Using the parts lowers the centre of gravity due to adding weight at the lowest possible area of the car while the increased stiffness makes for optimised on-track performance especially in high-bite track conditions.

Exotek XB2 Dirt Edition Flite motor plate

Exotek have introduced the Flite aluminium motor plate for the Xray XB2 Dirt Edition buggy. Machined from high-quality 7075 aluminium and coming black anodised and with silver chamfered edges the motor plate’s vented design allows to reduce motor and slipper temperatures while also looking the part. The extra machining also reduces weight and lowers the centre of gravity without weakening the critical motor mounting areas, making for solid motor mounting and gear mesh.

Team Associated B6 laydown transmission conversion

Team Associated have introduced the laydown transmission conversion set for the B6D 2WD buggy. Including everything needed to convert the B6D from a standup configuration to laydown, the set comes with new gearbox halves, blue anodised motor plate, idler gear and gearbox brace. The laydown transmission will lower the vehicle’s overall centre of gravity, reducing polar moment and thus increasing corner speed in higher grip conditions.
