MonacoRC USB to RC receiver adapter

MonacoRC’s new USB to RC receiver adapter connects a model car radio system to a MS Windows-based PC, allowing to use RC car simulators such as VRC Pro with your own radio gear. Due to the design the device does not need any drivers, making it a plug & play. It works with every transmitter and receiver and simulates the ESC and steering servo. It also supports all the functions of the transmitter such as servo speed, curve and more. All that is needed to get it running is a free USB port on the computer, a MS Windows-based PC or an Apple Mac running Parallel or BootCamp and Windows. The adapter is available with a blue or red case from now on.

Samix SCX10 III 8mm brass hex adapters

Coming from Samix and made for Axial’s SCX10 III trail truck kit is a set of 8mm brass wheel hex adapters. Machined of heavy and high-quality brass material the hex hubs add 30g of weight to the wheel area, improving traction and thus climbing and braking performance in steep terrain. The hubs sport a black surface coating for wear and corrosion protection while machined gold-colour edge details improve visual appearance. The design of the adapters also include a shim, making for easier attachment and with their 8mm offset they also slightly widen the whole rig.
