| Axon YD-series Revoshock dampers Posted: 30 Jul 2019 10:51 AM PDT Axon have introduced their new Revoshock dampers the Yokomo YD-2 and YD-4 drift cars. The big bore shock absorbers utilise 11.5mm diameter 16-hole shock pistons that run in HVF-coated threaded alloy shock bodies for ultra low friction. The clearance between the piston and shock body is only 0.025mm, ensuring minimal oil blow-by and thus predictable shock performance. New to the Revoshock is a revolutionary piston shaft seal design with the lower cartridge seals being a lot smaller in diameter compared to industry-standard P3 O-rings, which ensures the seals are not being pinched by the shock body which created a floating design that leads to virtually no friction between the seals and the shock shaft. Specially selected inner diameters of the upper S and lower SS-sized O-rings ensure the shocks are still as leak-free as possible while the HVF-coated piston shaft further reduce overall friction. The result is a shock absorber that is able to generate more traction due to being as smooth as possible. Included in the set come the shock bodies, upper and lower caps, spring pre-load collar as well as the piston rods and pistons. The plastic parts, pivot balls and shock springs are not included as these are parts that can be taken from the donor Yokomo shocks.

| Posted: 30 Jul 2019 02:32 AM PDT Coming from Helix Designs and made for the Awesomatix P03 suspension cups is the P03 popper tool. Mounting the cups can be a hassle at times and this is where the tool kicks in as it saves time and lots of P03s from breaking on instillation and removal. It is of a two-sided design – a pushing side to help install easier and protect the P03, and a removal side that has a slightly tighter fit to help pry off old P03s. The 3-D-printed tool is available from now on. Source: Helix Designs [helixrc.com] The post Helix Designs P03 popper appeared first on Red RC. |
| RC Maker A800X MMCX floating electronic plate set Posted: 30 Jul 2019 02:09 AM PDT Coming from RC Maker and made for the Awesomatix A800X MMCX mid motor touring car is the new adjustable floating electronic plate set. Long awaited by several Awesomatix enthusiasts and extensively tested and refined for the MMCX, the plate adds valuable weight and balance to the car. The degree of weight required varies depending on the size and weight of the battery. This is why the designers have created the next generation of the AFEP, which not only moves side to side for balance, but that can have additional plates stacked on top to increase weight. As well as this, RC Maker have included two centre weight options in the kit, 5g and 15g which can be installed depending on the required overall weight. The key feature of this plate is its floating capability. The plate sits 0.5mm above the chassis and allows the main plate to flex underneath. Only mounting from a single central screw, it also makes changing chassis extremely easy, without having to remove any double sided tape. The set is a direct fit to the MMCX chassis and an additional 8g stick-on plate is available separately.
