Usukani PDSR Active Toe system

Coming from Usukani or their PDSR series drift cars is this active toe system. Consisting of new rear aluminium uprights, which has a ball raced pivot point at the base, as well as a system to attach the upright to the arms, the active part comes from a track rod mounted between the lower arm and the upright. Featuring a multitude of mounting points for fine adjustment, as the suspension travels up or down the small track rod pivots the upright from its default position. How much that moves depends on the attachment point of the link. The set comes with everything required to complete the conversion of the left and right of the car.

Maclan Racing DRK 160 Drag Race ESC

New from Maclan Racing, the DRK 160 Drag Race ESC is specifically designed for the extremely competitive and popular no-prep drag racing segment. The most exciting part of this ESC is its all-new 3-stage launch power control software. It is operated by a 32-Bit super fast CPU with an all new algorithm specifically designed for this class. The software was inspired by the full scale drag race cars with extremely complicated processing for the smoothest launch traction control, yet most powerful acceleration. Thanks to the powerful 32-Bit CPU the ESC is able to remap the throttle curve in 3 stages precisely, all you need to do for the win is to focus on the starting signal for the full throttle launch.

LCG Racing T4’20 SFX Conversion chassis

LCG Racing have introduced this new aluminium chassis for the Xray T4 2020 SFX Conversion which features a stepped decrease of cutout width from front to rear. This makes the chassis softer in the front and stiffer in the rear which they claim makes the car smoother at corner entry and more stable on power while increasing steering through the corner. The chassis is designed with reduced width at the droop screw area to decrease scrubbing and, therefore, increase corner speed and only includes long suspension arm holes to improve strength and optimise flex characteristics. The black anodised aluminium chassis is made from high quality 7075 Aluminium and comes laser engraved with the LCG and SFX logos.

Tamiya TA07 MSX chassis kit

Coming soon from Tamiya, the TA07 MSX chassis kit is their latest single belt 4wd 1/10th scale chassis. An evolution of the TA07 MS, the car features a new 2.25mm thick carbon fibre chassis and 2.0mm thick aluminium chassis to help dial it in to various track conditions. Using a vertically mounted 2.0mm thick upper deck, it creates improved roll characteristics while ensuring pitching rigidity. In addition, two motor positions with different traction characteristics can be selected and as with the TRF420 the suspension mounts use inserts for fine adjustment. The front and rear pulleys are the same as the TRF420 as are the SSBB dampers and to that end there is new 3mm thick carbon fibre shock towers front and rear.
