1up Racing Forged Carbon Fibre Pit Board

1up Racing has released this Forged Carbon Fibre Pit Board.  At 390mm x 490mm it is the perfect size to work on just about everything with Ryan Cavalieri loving it for his 1:8 Buggies and Truggies. It’s perfect for Joe Pillars’ 1:10 Buggies and Randy Caster’s Touring Cars. At 5mm thick the Forged Carbon Fibre Pit Board is rigid and won’t sag or conform to uneven surfaces even with heavy cars. It features rounded corners and is finished with chamfers on top & bottom so there are no sharp edges and is topped off with a bright white 1up logo. Forged Carbon Fibre sheets typically have a lot of surface variations but 1up were able to identify the source of the issue and worked hard with their carbon fibre professionals to make 1up Pit Boards as flat as possible. Our production boards are the result of over a year and a half of testing multiple samples and while the surface may still show some variations, they are small and won’t affect getting a properly set up car. The 1up Racing Forged Carbon Fiber Pit Board is as much a status symbol as it is a pit board, and it’s only available at Pick1up.com.

BrunoRC BR1-X4 servo gets 4xWorld Champion restyle

To celebrate the huge success of the servo at the recent ISTC World Championships in Italy, including Bruno Coelho’s successful title defence, BrunoRC has given its BR1-X4 servo a restyle. Launched 1 year ago to coincide with the release of Xray’s new X4 platform, the servo, which is specifically developed to directly fit the X4, statistically was one of the most used servos during the World Championship, being the top choice 16% of the time. This is even more impressive considering that this model only fits on the X4. And again more impressive when looking at the XRAY drivers, 60% of these have chosen BR1 X4. The new BR1 X4, in addition to presenting itself in a celebratory packaging for the 4X World Champion titles, displays a new graphic, with 4 lasered stars on the product that commemorates not only the 4 World Titles won by these great drivers in Gubbio, but also the 4 World titles of Coelho himself.  The new BR1 X4 was produced in a very limited number, available for sale just in time to arrive in stores ready to be mounted on the new Xray X4’23.
