Samix have introduced their new 5.8mm brass flanged suspension balls for the Axial SCX10 III truck. Machined from high-quality aluminum the pivot balls offer great durability and they help adding weight in some of the lowest parts of the truck. They come in sets of 10 and also fit older specification SCX10 kits as well as the Yeti, AX-10, Wraith and Scorpion.
Arena RC Racing have announced the release of their new asymmetrical single side upper deck for the Serpent X20 mid-motor touring car. Machined from high-quality 2.0mm carbon fibre the top deck will improve corner speed of the car in various track conditions due to its optimised flex characteristics. The asymmetrical design also makes for easier disassembly.
Coming from Xray and made for their XB2’20 2WD buggies are 3-slot carbon fibre steering block extension plates. The new geometry 3-slot extensions offer an increased Ackermann steering angle which comes in handy when manoeuvring on tight and technical tracks. The plates are machined from high-quality 2.5mm carbon fibre, they come in sets of two and fit the XB2 and XT2 line of buggies and trucks.
T-Works have introduced an aluminium FF front lower suspension mount for the Hong Nor X3GT and IGT8 GT cars. Machined from high-quality aluminium the mount was developed for the use with composite inserts and it features machined silver edge details for looks. A black surface coating prevents the part from damage due to normal wear.

Coming from Wrap-up Next is a bearing adapter set for the Yokomo YD-2 drift car. The adapters allow to use 850 bearings instead of the standard 1050 ball races which can make for lighter rolling front tyres and thus improved car balance during cornering. The set includes four adapters, enough to outfit both steering knuckles.
Coming from Usukani and made for their PDS series drift cars are several new option parts. The range includes AlTiN shock shafts in a dark finish, an 28T ceramic-coated aluminium mid gear including bearings, a 20T ceramic-coated aluminium top shaft gear as well as reinforcement plate set for front upper arms. The range is rounded out by a 30mm fan mount set. All parts are available from now on with the 28T mid gear also fitting the Yokomo YD-2 drift car.
Rounding out what appears to be a “coming soon” Tuesday is Italian company Bittydesign’s announcement of their own range of high-quality airbrushes. Bittydesign is known for their popular and successful line of body shells, that are also available Pro pre-painted, and full details on their first ever “air pencil” will be unveiled this coming Friday.

Coming from Klinik RC and made for Schumacher’s current Cougar 2WD and Cat 4WD buggies are precision-machined shock pistons. Designed to fit and perform they fit the shock bodies extremely well and have precise dimensions to ensure 100 percent consistency and accuracy. The pistons are precision-machined from genuine Dupont Teflon and they have the hole sizes machined into the top for easy identification. Attached much more secure than the stock pistons, the stock countersunk screw fits the top perfectly, doing away with loose or lost screws in the middle of a run. The pistons come in sets of two and in the most popular 2-hole and 3-hole setups.
