MiBorg RCV electric touring car driveshafts

French company MiBorg has introduced their new RCV real constant velocity driveshafts for electric touring cars. Utilising the design of full-scale cars the driveshafts use steel balls instead of cross pins to drive the wheel axle, which results in less vibration even at high steering angles. This leads to a more predictable handling, higher corner speeds and less tyre wear. In addition the wheel axles allow the use of standard thickness bearings while lighter, pin-less wheel hex adapters reduce overall weight. The patent pending driveshafts are available for many of today’s electric touring car kits.

Infinity IF14-2 aluminium super flex chassis

Coming from Creation Model and made for the Infinity IF14-2 electric touring car is an aluminium super flex chassis. The main plate is machined from high-quality 2.0mm aluminium and it offers greatly increased torsional flex characteristics thanks to excessive milling, resulting in improved handling and traction in low-bite carpet or medium-high traction outdoor asphalt track conditions. In addition the chassis is about 7g lighter than the standard flex chassis. The part comes black anodised and laser-engraved for surface protection and looks.

Hudy plastic setup board decals

New from Hudy are updated plastic setup board decals for their recently introduced lightweight setup boards. The all-new series is made from tough plastic and provides a smooth, liquid-resistant surface for quick and easy track-width check and adjustment. They feature accurate, clear markings in a 1mm grid for convenient suspension geometry adjustment. The setup decal is also great for ride height checking as it is less sticky than the set-up board itself which allows for more accurate ride height adjustment of off-road cars. The decals are available for all of the five new lightweight setup boards.

Smokem Racing have introduced their new carbon fibre camber link shim set for the Xpress XQ1 and XQ10 kits.

With the shims racers simply loosen the screws, remove or add shims as needed, then retighten the screws. The set comes complete with four shims in 1.0mm thickness and four shims in 2.0mm thickness and it also fits the FT1 and XM1.
