Xray have announced the release of two rear chassis braces, machined from aluminium or brass, for the all-new T4 2020 mid-motor touring car kit. The T-shaped braces are designed in a way that allows to access a total of four stiffness settings by using variable amounts of screws and shims to attach the brace in longitudinal and transversal directions. While the lightweight aluminium is mainly used to stiffen up either the carbon fibre or aluminium chassis, the 15g brass variant also helps to fine-tune the weight balance with the brass T-brace being of help especially for higher grip track conditions. The braces are available separately and they include all needed screws and shims.

Made for the Kyosho Inferno MP10 1/8th off-road buggy is 7075.it’s closed switch cover. Machined from high-quality aluminium and coming with an anodised surface finish for wear and looks, the laser-etched part replaces the standard switch cover with a closed variant for all drivers that scrapped the standard switch over a DIY “plug” solution.

RC-Project have introduced their new “Limited Edition” titanium clutch bell retaining screw for 1/8th off-road and single-speed GT vehicles. Machined from highest quality Grade 5 6Al4V titanium the screw will offer different thermal expansion compared to steel, making it possible to undo or fasten the bolt even when the engine is still hot after a run. In addition the new design of the fastener prevents it from rubbing on the clutch bearing or end bell which reduces heat built up while adding to the overall durability of the whole system. With a screw head thickness of 3mm the clutch bell retainer also presents collisions with the fuel tank in tight surroundings. What also makes the screw stand out is the 5.5mm socket head that allows for much easier and more reliable assembly and easier removal compared to using a classic 2.5mm hex head. As each screw features a unique number, RC-Project gives a 1-year warranty on the fastener that is available separately or in pairs.

Available soon from Smokem are new lower split design aluminium bulkheads for the Xpress XQ1. Offering vastly improved flex characteristics, the parts allow the car to generate improved grip while offering a wider tuning window. Another key difference to the stock bulkheads is the use of flanged bearings for mounting the swaybars to the bulkheads. This allows the bearings to be inserted from the centre of the car for easier installation and smoother operation. The bulkheads will be available as a complete set of four with bearings included as well as separately, and they suit both the standard XQ1 and mid-pulley converted XQ1.

Sunpadow have officially introduced their all-new Platin Series 5200mAh Slim Pack LiPo battery pack. Of a revolutionary new design the hardcase battery is only 36mm wide which is about 24 percent narrower than a traditional 47mm battery and at 5200mAh capacity the pack weighs in at only 246g, however the major benefit of the slim battery is a greatly improved weight balance compared to a standard size battery pack as it optimises the weight distribution especially of today’s mid-motor touring cars. The Slim Pack battery was used by Xray and Sunpadow factory driver, Bruno Coelho to win the Touring Modified class last weekend’s SIGP event in Xiamen, China in pretty dominant fashion. The battery measured 139x36x25.1mm, it is built using high-performance 65C/130C cells and with 5200mAh it offers more than enough runtime even for power-hungry modified classes.

RC-KleinKram from Germany have introduced their new carbon fibre motor spacer set for the Xray T4 2020 touring car. The newly developed mid-motor car is known to having some top deck and motor clearance issues when running certain pinion and main gear combinations or when using specific motors with no or only a small chamfer on the front end plate. To overcome this, Xray advises to use small shims between the end plate and the motor mount to spacer the motor further away from the top deck. As this can be fiddly to perform and in order to better brace the motor against the motor mount, RC-KleinKram have designed compact 1-piece carbon fibre plates that not only are easier to install but they also allow for better distribution of the forces that can occur during a run. The set includes a machined 2.0mm and and a 3.0mm plate each with both being individually marked for easy identification.

Coming from Xray is their new 8mm steering plate for the T4 series of touring cars. The part was developed to improve cornering speed as it offers less steering response and it is recommended for large asphalt tracks with long sweepers in order to improve cornering speed or for the use on very technical carpet tracks to eliminate oversteering in the chicanes. According to Xray‘s Alexander Hagberg: “[The steering plate offers] smoother initial, but more mid to exit steering”. The bearings are factory pressed into the black anodised high-quality aluminium steering plate which eliminates play in the assembly.
