Revolution Design Racing Products Ultra Shock Stand TC

Revolution Design Racing Products is busy adding more accessories to their already impressive line up with the Ultra Shock Stand TC being their latest offering. The handy tool keeps things sorted during building, rebuilding and setup of 1/10th touring car shock absorbers. Machined from aircraft-grade 7075-T6 aluminium the stand is usable with both standard and big bore shocks and it keeps them in a perfectly upright position, allowing to easily and conveniently fill the dampers with shock fluid and they are also perfectly stored away when waiting for those nasty air bubbles to disappear. On top of this, small compartments under each shock hold small parts such as volume compensators and the like. Laser-etched markings help with shock identification to avoid any mix-ups and the stand comes in the five different colours of light blue, dark blue, black, orange and red.

Scorpion RR-3420 ROAR-spec 10.5T brushless motor

Scorpion have introduced their all-new RR-3420 brushless motor. Designed to meet ROAR specifications the motor features an 7075 aluminium case with heatsink design and several cooling openings that also allow to check the stator specifications. Furthermore the motor utilises high-temperature magnets and high-purity copper wires for minimal internal resistance. The stator material is high-grade silicon steel and a built-in cooling fan reduces the internal temperatures while a patented screw-type rotor surface increases flux density and maximises cooling. The motor is currently available as 10.5T variant and should get ROAR approval soon.
