Available from end of January is the GForce TS120 Competition Black Aluminium Edition brushless speed controller. The ESC sports an all-black CNC-machined aluminium case, an integrated on/off switch, optional high-flow fan unit and it incorporates a build-in data port for swift and easy programming via the optional programming box. The 120A controller is usable with 2S to 3S LiPo batteries, features a 6V/3A BEC system and measures 39x38x20mm.
Exotek introduce two new option parts for HPI Racing’s Micro RS4 line of cars. First up is the titanium rear axle and ball diff set that is designed to replace the stock gear differential. The externally adjustable ball differential makes for smooth acceleration and swift diff action setup. The alloy left and right axle hubs are polished and anodised in factory orange for looks and durability and the gear pulley set is machined from lightweight but durable POM. Included in the set are heavy duty 4x8mm axle bearings and a lightweight yet strong titanium rear axle shaft. Also new is the alloy and steel high performance CVD set for the Micro RS4. Designed to better withstand higher performance motors and batteries the driveshafts also look great too with their anodised factory orange finish.
Japanese company GForce soon have a line of optional aluminium parts for the Tamiya TB-04 chassis available. First up is a steering set containing CNC-machined aluminium bellcranks and an aluminium steering link. The parts are made to improve the steering precision and to make for a more durable steering setup. Also new is an aluminium shock tower mount. It is useable on the front and rear and improves the rigidity and durability of the suspension, plus it makes for a more precise shock mount. Last but not least come front and rear chassis braces that reduce the torsional flex of the chassis. On top of that the parts improve the drivetrain efficiency as the prop shafts stays straighter and the chassis tends to flex less when low turn motors are used. All parts are made from high-quality aluminium and come blue anodised.
Spec-R soon have two new aluminium option parts for Xray’s XB4 4WD buggy available in the form of an aluminium wing mount and servo brackets. Starting with the wing mount, the part is CNC-machined from 7075 aluminium, comes black anodised and laser-etched with Spec-R logos. A carbon fibre mounting plate allows to place the wing in a forward and rearward position without the need to drill a second set of holes, while the plate also acts as a support plate prolonging the life of the high stressed plastic part. Also new are the 7075 aluminium servo mounting brackets. They come with a black anodising and allow for a more precise and durable servo mounting while also looking the part. The brackets come as pair and are a direct replacement for the stock plastic mounts.
New from Xray comes this orange colour aluminium top deck mount for the T4 touring car kit. Designed to improve forward and rear traction the car will also become more stable and easier to drive in low-traction conditions as on-power push can be created. The mount fits all T4 cars with the #301197 top deck.
German RB distributors RMV introduce the RB One-R V2 Daniel Reckward edition kit. The buggy is based on the One-R V2 and includes hand-picked parts by the former European and World Champion Reckward as there are hardened differential cases front and rear, a hard-anodised 7075-T6 chassis, CNC machined front and rear 7075-T6 shock towers, 3mm fibre glass brake discs, modified 13/43T gears for a longer internal ratio, a modified 13T clutch bell as well as an optional 10/43T “short” transmission setup along a heavy duty body shell and a high downforce rear wing. The Daniel Reckward Edition is available World-wide via RMV Deutschland.
Xray introduce these SLS brake pads for their XB9 off-road buggy. They are made from a slip-free material, make for very efficient brake action, come in sets of four and are best combined with the stock steel brake discs.
For The Win introduce the Nanofox bodyshell for the Kyosho RB6 buggy. Stealth facets that define FTW style are fused with Grand Prix inspiration to cloak an all-business forward cab and impossibly low profile side pods with style. Like all FTW body shells, fitment is immaculate and most popular electronic suites are easily housed inside. The unique side pod profiles provide an ideally positioned air inlet opportunity. The body is formed from clear .030” polycarbonate and fits the buggy in both mid and rear- motor configurations, it includes moulded cut lines for each configuration as well as two .040 Fulcrum wings, a decal sheet, and window masks.
