The cradle is CNC milled from 3mm carbon fibre and allows changing batteries very simple and easy. Included in the set come two battery cradles, four hold down O-rings, 3x14mm screws as well as a decal sheet.

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.

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.
