Capricorn RC Multi Tire Additive Machine

Italy’s Capricorn RC has presented CAD images of its new Multi Tire Additive Machine. The main features are the possibility of performing the treatment on up to 4 rear and 4 front wheels at the same time. Heating is generated by 4 halogen lamps capable of bringing the rubber to about 50 °C to facilitate penetration of the liquid. The motor and lamps managed separately by a double command switch and it has interface tools dedicated to 1:10 and 1:8 wheel types with anti-bending flanges. For the front wheels it is possible to choke to 1/3 1/2 2/3 of the width. The Multi Tire Additive Machine is powered at 12V DC, and requires a minimum power supply of 50W.

Smart Starter GT Version

Smart Workshop has released a new version of their Smart Starter intend for 1:8 GT use. The extended front tips are capable of accommodating GT models with a higher body shell height. Like the original glow plug starter, it is a high efficiency high frequency synchronous step down DC/DC regulator capable of delivering up to 6A output current. It integrates main switch and synchronous switch with very low RDS (on) to minimise the conduction loss, Internal Soft-start Limits the Inrush Current. It uses a replaceable 3.7V 1800mAh Lithium Iron Rechargeable Battery (Size 18500) with JST connector with build in protection board to prevent over charge and discharge. One touch button to show five levels of the battery capacity. Red and Green indictor to show the charging progress. Changeable Inner hexagon contactor use direct plug-in design without locking, user can insert or remove fast and smoothly during operating. In order to reduce the phenomenon of flashover and oxidation, Inner spring power contactor come with gold plated and both contactors make by 100% copper to minimise internal resistance.

Marka Racing Side Circle Ride & Droop Height Gauge

Italy’s Marka Racing has released two new set-up tools, the Side Circle Ride & Droop Height Gauge. As a combination the tools allow the measurement of ride height and droop with the Ride Height Side Circle also available separately. The idea originated years ago from the engineer Ivo Cavuoto that, with the help of the team, finally sees realised his project. This tool, being two faced, is one of a kind because it can be used on both sides. This way is possible to get a more accurate measurement of the height from the ground with step of 0.1mm. The tool extensively can measure from 2.9mm to 6.4mm. Adding the second part of the tool that raises the Ride Height Gauge by 10mm is possible to measure the Droop, and the tool becomes a Droop Height Gauge. In the second part of the tool there is a hole that allows the Awesomatix differential’s place for its upkeep. The tool has being produced by CNC, anodised with the colour black and silver borders.
