Following the earlier teaser for the upcoming T300 1/10 touring engine, FX Engines continue to tease the details but give much more information ahead of its official release. As the graphic says it will be a 3 + 1 ports engine with DLC coated and tungsten balanced crankshaft and as is standard for FX, the sleeve and piston set are selected and hand matched as well as lapped for easier and faster break-in.

JConcepts 2020 Raptor w/ Bigfoot 19 Racer Stripe decals

Posted: 24 May 2021 01:31 AM PDT

JConcepts has teamed up with Bigfoot 4×4 to offer officially licensed decal sets to go along with branded body shells. The second offering Bigfoot 19 Racer Stripe which includes all logos associated with the truck in one of the more famous and current trim packages. The included body shell, a 2020 Ford Raptor, is the work of the JConcepts crew always looking to offer the best performing and most accurate presentation on the market. The Raptor launches quick with its low-slung design, snoopy front-end and detailed representation. The grille area is heavily recessed, so the included decals lock into place and high-end looks intimidate anyone at the starting line. Upper louvers, hard-edge hood impressions help create a strong and durable mounting area for the body and matches the 1:1 as a racer.

The cab is Raptor-ized, with centre channel, recessed front windshield and side windows to provide rigidity to the area. The extra cab window has an included decal to help boldly display supporting sponsorships. Travel back to the bed area, the pronounced rear fenders make the truck pop, and in addition, the 2020 truck carves out a new detail with another layered body panel for a new edgy feature. The slight bed recess allows plenty of space for body mounting and trim-able space for rollbars and items found on chassis’ such as the Axial SMT10.

The rear of the fender is recessed for included decals for taillights. The surface representing blank space in the 1:1 world can be left as a subdued tailgate or cut or trimmed to a specific liking. One of the most important parts of any shell are the wheel wells. The JConcepts produced Ford Raptor has larger openings with flares to give clearance accurately and deliberately for large tires like the racing Renegades. The clear JConcepts body shell includes Ford Raptor decal sheet, Bigfoot 4×4 decal sheet, window mask, and instruction. The genuine body shell is backed with JConcepts customer support and racing heritage. Whether it is making record jump attempts, ascending new heights, or famed racing championships, Team Bigfoot is synonymous with success. JConcepts IFMAR World Championship products and Bigfoot 4×4, a winning combination.

Posted: 23 May 2021 11:23 PM PDT

Bittydesign have released the new Hyper-HR 1/10 190mm touring car body shell. This project came about following the desire to further develop the first Hyper body by creating a new model similar in appearance but totally redesigned to meet the needs of this ultra-competitive category. The Hyper-HR body represents the best result of performance and aesthetics into the same product, a great mix with modern and aggressive look. The design inspired by a real 4 doors car, as requested by the international federations, has been adapted to the meet the homologation specs. The refinement phase took several months to optimise every detail, the attention to detail was obsessive in order to made a body that could best enhance the aerodynamic study that the project requested. Fast rotation and better stability, starting with their previous Hyper model, it was completely redesigned to improve cornering.
