Sunpadow have announced the release of their new 6700mAh and 6300mAh 4S LiPo battery packs. Both batteries use an integrated hardcase design with a built-in balance port, which makes the charging process more convenient and reliable. Moreover, the new design further reduced the overall internal resistance of the batteries, making them ideal for power-hungry 1/8th scale classes. The batteries also have a smoother discharge curve, to give better consistency between the first and second half of the race.

ZooRacing 3-piece 190mm touring car wing set

Available now from ZooRacing is their new 3-piece wing set that includes three different design wings to fine-tune the aerodynamics of most of today’s 1/10th scale 190mm touring car bodies. Included are the wing of the ultra-popular DBX/PreoPard/ZooZilla series, the highly-curved HellCat rear wing as well as the new BayBee rear wing, all moulded from high-quality polycarbonate. Also included are a total of six polycarbonate endplates. Using the set comes in handy especially when running ZooRacing’s ultra lightweight 0.5mm bodies that greatly profit from the tougher and less flexible rear wings as they improve overall downforce without adding too much weight. In addition the different shapes of the wings allow to fine-tune the aerodynamic balance if conditions call for it. The wing set is usable with all 190mm touring cars that use a 100mm wing post spacing, they come un-cut and are supplied in clear high-quality polycarbonate material.

Mon-Tech Racing 190mm Pick-Up body shell

Mon-Tech Racing from Italy have unveiled their all-new Pick-Up body shell for 190mm wide 1/10th scale touring cars. The lid’s design is inspired by 1950’s hot rod pick-ups and although it was developed basically for bashing, it still offers a good overall balance thanks to the add-on rear wing that also makes for race-inspired looks. Beside the 190mm touring car variant Mon-Tech will also offer a 210mm wheelbase M-chassis and a crawler trail truck body in the foreseeable future.
