STRC Drag Slash front & rear aluminium A-arms

STRC have introduced their new CNC machined aluminium front and rear A-arm kits for the Traxxas Drag Slash. Improve the front end durability and add a bit more weight to the front end of your Drag Slash with these front A-arms which match precisely the stock suspension geometry and which include their heat-treated steel lock-nut style hinge-pin kits so you never have an issue with the hinge-pins backing out. The rear A-arm reduces the rear toe-in on the Drag Slash from the stock 3 degrees to just 1 degree, which will improve straight line top speed. These arms also include the heat-treated steel lock-nut style hinge-pin kits as well. Available now in anodised blue, gun metal, green, red and silver.

JConcepts Warrior Arrma Typhon body

The Warrior body by JConcepts features a design that has, frankly, gone a little mad. The design process was simple, throw out the conventional principals and centre the design around a battle tested look, fit and finish. The Warrior is protected from the competition with a heavily wrapped roll-cage to provide strength in every direction. The racers eye is drawn to the unique split front window, protecting the cockpit from the occasional aerial assault of lap traffic. The rear upper pods blend into the rear section of the body to start a ramping feature which tops-off at the rear body mounts. The side-pods are tall and with an additional scoop built on top to accommodate an assortment of different type of battery packs. The sides of the body shell fit the chassis like a glove and allows plenty of electrical clearance inside the shell. The body is an experienced racer too, featuring a vent that may be trimmed by the user and opened on the front of the scoops and off the back of the cab providing air-intake or escape packages for the skilled and crafty driver. Fully committed, the Warrior body features cut lines for the Arrma Typhon or the TLR Tuned version.

JConcepts titanium 5.5 x 6mm ball studs

A sought-after piece in the RC world is the 5.5 x 6mm ball-ends which seemingly attach to just about every corner of the Team Associated line of vehicles and JConcepts Regulator behind axle steering assembly. Previously, the kit versions were very heavy steel items which is a lot of unnecessary weight. With the JConcepts Titanium pieces, the application is smooth and simple with a 2mm wrench while the lightweight material screws together very easily.
