Mon-Tech Racing from Italy have introduced their new 2017 style formula front wing. Of an adjustable design the wing can be run with three, two or a single wing element, meaning it can adapt the car’s aerodynamics to a wide range of track conditions from low to high-bite. All needed flaps are included with the wing that is available in black or white colour and that fits most of today’s formula cars.

Dedicated milled-out pockets also hold the wheel nuts for both TCs and pan cars.
Modelix Racing have introduced the new Ultimate Racing 7.4V 2500mAh Lithium-Polymer receiver battery packs. Available in hump and straight pack configurations and coming pre-soldered with universal JR-type connectors the batteries will provide lots of runtime even with power hungry high-voltage servos and the straight pack also fits a range of transmitters.
Capricorn have introduced a new aluminium rear axle for their Formula, 1/10th 200mm and forthcoming 1/12th scale pan cars.

Italian company Reds Racing have introduced their new Gen2 1/8th electric brushless motors. Developed with the help of factory drivers such as Elliott Boots the power plants feature a new stator for increased heat dissipation, a redesigned rotor makes for improved throttle control and an all-new heatsink can increases heat dissipation. The features list is rounded out by dual sensor ports, pre-shaped heavy duty solder tabs and high-RPM ball bearings. The motor will become available in a range of winding options including 1900kv and 2100kv variants.

Coming from Muchmore is a full range of rotors for the new Fleta ZX V2 modified and stock racing motors. Available are a total of 15 rotors, including a dedicated drift variant with cooling fan and 1S 1/12th scale options, that will help to fine-tune the motor’s characteristics to the given track conditions or driving style. To ensure easy identification the titanium rotors come a yellow-anodised ring and all feature laser-engraved markings on the rotor body and pinion shaft.

Team Orion have introduced their new Vortex Ultimate Modified brushless motor. Like the Ultimate Stock variant, the modified motor, that won the 4WD Buggy class at last weekend’s Hot Rod Hobbies Shootout in the hands of Xray’s Ty Tessmann, will offer increased performance and efficiency thanks to a low resistance design, a new “Ultimate” sensor construction for accurate timing adjustment and control and precision-balanced rotor manufactured using a new magnetic material. The latter will also improve brake efficiency and feeling while a new stator design and material makes for optimised efficiency and cooler running temperatures. The motor is rounded out by a 4-piece can design and a new angled front plate. The Vortex Ultimate Modified motor is race legal for all major governing bodies and it is available in 4.5T to 8.5T variants with a 6.5T 1/12th scale specific version becoming available also.
