New from Titanium Racing, their latest spool features a new interlocking radial drive system which reduces loadings on the outdrives resulting in less deformation under load. Manufactured from an aero grade 7075 T6 Alloy body with replaceable high impact Delrin outdrives, with integrated sleeves, the radial drive system produces a more direct and equalised load around the circumference of the outdrive reducing potential stress areas on the spool, the bearings and ultimately the bulkheads. The new arrangement features increased diameter outdrive cups making them significantly stronger than previous designs and the outdrives are now secured in place with Titanium countersunk screws ensuring a lightweight solid and concentric unit with better balance for reduced losses at higher RPM’s. Available for the Schumacher Mi3 and Mi4, Tamiya 416, Top Photon, Yokomo MR4 BD5, Hot Bodies Cyclone and Associated TC5.

Serpent have released new optional rear belts for their 733 200mm chassis. The first, an orange version of the standard kevlar reinforced belt, comes in 5mm (wide) making it more durable than the 4mm kit version, while sacrificing some drag. Serpent have also released a low friction Pro version of this new belt, which again is stronger than the standard 4mm belt but allows for a smoother drivetrain, eliminating most of the drag caused by having the extra width.
