JConcepts introduction the Fin turnbuckle sets for the Team Losi Racing 22 2.0 and 22-4 buggies. The base of the shafts’ design is centred around a .143″ titanium hex size which gradually tapers down into a 3.5mm thread base design which accepts the TLR HD ball-cups. The focus of the styling surrounds the lengthened adjustment hex area and the “finned” cuts that rotate about the centre. The turnbuckles are produced with left and right hand threads with the left being conveniently marked for easy orientation.
Picco introduce the Torque .12 EMX-WC Edo modified X-type World Championship replica Touring racing engine that has been developed with the upcoming 1/10th Nitro World Championships in mind. The engine is completely redesigned and comes with a new long stroke layout to deliver great power over the entire RPM range, good fuel efficiency, and improved mid-range acceleration. The front ball bearing has been replaced with a 7mm inner diameter one and the components have been “hand modified” by Edoardo Picco using his extensive experience. The engine features a balanced 12mm “turbo” silicone-filled crankshaft for improved fuel flow and reduced weight, a super aligned “knife edged” aerodynamic connecting rod, a hand finished hard chromed brass liner with tear-trop work on the ports, and a lightened CNC machined piston made from high percentage silicone alloy billet. Other parts used include a large size finned turbo combustion chamber insert for better heat dissipation, new ultra light weight cooling head with an extra fin, hand modified rear back plate for improved fuel flow, Swiss quality 12mm main bearing and a composite slide carburettor with 5.4mm venturi inserts.
New from T-Works come aluminium body height adjusters for the use with all on-road cars with 6mm body posts.

Laser-etched marks make adjustment easy and included with the adjusters come 2mm stainless steel pins and securing O-rings.
Coming from Active Hobby Products and made for Tamiya’s WR-02 2WD wheeler chassis is an aluminium motor guard set. Included is a machined motor guard with numerous slots for cooling and weight reduction as well as all needed mounting hardware. The assembly protects the somewhat exposed motor of the WR-02 chassis during on-road and off-road abuse while adding a bit of visual impact at the same time. The set is available in four colours including blue, black, red and silver.
Exotek have new option parts for Kyosho’s RB6 buggy available in the form of aluminium wing mounts for mid motor converted buggies as well as delrin big bore cartridge housings. Starting with the wing mounts, the parts made from 7075 aluminium are of a heavy duty design for extra durability while being light of weight at the same time. Threaded holes allow to mount the wing using low profile M3 screws, doing away with the need to use body clips. The mounts come red anodised to match with the remainder of Exotek’s Kyosho option parts.
