MonacoRC Spring Holders with Xray version

MonacoRC has introduced this Spring Holder Tray as a solution for organising and neatly transporting springs with the range having an option dedicated to Xray springs.  Available in various colors, it can hold up to 10 pairs of springs. It can be used individually in your own garage, but reaches maximum convenience when combined with the “MonacoRC Plastic Case 10×7”, which allows for safe transport to the race tracks.  This version is designed for springs with a diameter of 17mm. If used in conjunction with the “MonacoRC Plastic Case 10×7”, the maximum height of the springs is 20mm. Made with high-definition 3D printers, it represents the right choice for those who want to travel light.  The Xray Spring Holder Tray features markings for the 8 available hardness options (2.4 – 2.7 / 2.5 – 2.8 / 2.6 – 2.9 / 2.5 / 2.6 / 2.7 / 2.9), as well as two blank spaces for any additional duplicates.

Wild Turbo Fan MILF 35 Full metal fan

Wild Turbo Fan has announce another industry-leading RC cooling fan, the MILF 35 (Metallic Intelligent Luxury Fan 35mm).  It features the industry’s first full metal cooling fan for the RC industry, meaning even the fan blade is made of metal, with each piece made by a 5-axial CNC machine with 30 minutes of process time to achieve perfection.  This fan has two special features that uniquely belong to WTF, first is reverse polarity protection, and second is dead stop protection, which will prevent the fans to fail electronically even further.  With both blade and frame precisely CNC made with a total processing time of 1 hour machine time, in addition, each CNC fan blade is precisely balanced, so the fan blade itself is an art piece on its own.  This fan is made to a 35mm custom size. The 35mm size is carefully selected as this is the diameter of most 540-size motors so this will give the best coverage of cooling air.  The counter-directional exit fins will also provide an improved air pattern to help cool further.

Infinity IF18-2 updated parts

World Championship manufacturer Infinity has introduced a number of new updated parts for its IF18-2 1:8 Onroad chassis. First of these is a long upper rear suspension upper arm set. By extending the upper arm ball end boss by 3.5mm, the upper arm can be lengthened without any difficulty. The hole in the upper arm itself, which is combined with the upper arm, is also deeper, so it can be used in its shortest setting. It is now possible to use this part for wide range of settings. Another part improvement is the new SS 1st Gear Housing. The SS version is more durable than previous gear housings due to a review of the manufacturing process, including the shape and materials used. As the name SS standing for Strong Support suggests, the spur gear support is increased, minimising the chance of stripping gears.
