| Vigor RC T4 adjustable battery mount Posted: 18 Jan 2018 02:34 AM PST Vigor RC have introduced an adjustable battery mount for the Xray T4 series of electric touring cars. The multi-piece assembly utilises specially designed, eccentric inserts that can be turned around to place the battery pack in a front or rear position as well as in a more inward or outward placement. The carbon fibre battery brackets allow to wrap the mounting tape around them to do away with the need to route the tape on the bottom of the chassis for less chances to create a tweaked chassis, and chamfered edges reduce the chance of the battery tape being cut.

| Reflex Racing TC7.1 carbon fibre top decks Posted: 18 Jan 2018 12:35 AM PST Coming from Reflex Racing and made for the Team Associated TC7.1 touring car are three new top decks. First up is the vertical top deck kit that was designed to make the TC7.1 take advantage of the adjustment characteristic of a vertical frame top deck. Vertical top decks provide better forward bite due to the increased fore and aft rigidity of the chassis. They also provide for a platform where flex adjustment can be isolated at different points of the chassis through using stiffening posts which allows for a more adaptable flex characteristic based on the track conditions. The vertical top deck setup will excel in outdoor tracks with long sweeping corners and also indoors when used in high bite conditions. Additionally, when used with Reflex Racing’s pitch control system, it allows for fully symmetrical flex characteristic on the car. Next up is the 2.0mm high response carbon fibre top deck for the TC7.1 and TC7. It is cut out of 2.0mm quasi carbon fibre and is designed to increase the response in high bite conditions. It works great in combination with a carbon, flex aluminium or solid aluminium chassis when conditions call for it. Last but not least is the 1.5mm soft carbon fibre top deck for the TC7.1 and TC7. It is to be used in conditions where more side to side flex is called for. The top deck works great with Team Associated’s stiff aluminium chassis and also works great with flex aluminium like the Fenix or RSD chassis on asphalt. Source: Reflex Racing [reflexracing.net] |
