In many instances, radios are abused during racing conditions and not properly stored when they are inactive. Storage choices for radios are quite slim and once priced and evaluated, some racers prefer not to have them simply because they do not travel very well in their luggage or typical race gear. The new Finish Line radio carrier with outer woven fabric gives it a very luxurious look at first glance, however, the handy new item is designed with travel, cushion, ease of use and protection in mind. The lightweight design consists of a woven fabric outer bag which has a convenient and easy access zipper closure and inside has a Velcro closure pouch for additional easy access items. Inside, a high-density, form fitted foam, pre-cut to specific models cushions all sides of your pricey possession. The bag can be ordered for the Futaba T10PX, Futaba T4PM or Sanwa MX6.

Serpent Viper 990e 1:8 Electric Onroad

Serpent has announced the release of the Viper 990E, the successor to their successful 988E/989E 1:8 Electric Onroad chassis. Following extensive testing and research to improve the former electric powered 1:8 platforms, designer Michael Salven has put a lot of emphasis on the flex characteristic since that showed very promising results. On top of that Serpent have improved weight, weight distribution and ease of maintenance with a a lot of the development also going into the transmission. The goal was to have a bullet-proved, yet very free transmission. Some key features of the 990E are an ultra-narrow chassis that is milled down to allow the lowest possible mounting of the batteries plate as well as improving the overall flex characteristics. The central part of the chassis features 3 NACA ducts for the cooling of the speedo as well as the motor. The motor has been put as low as possible by machining the chassis underneath it. This improves the centre of gravity as well as the cooling from the bottom.
