RDRP YZ-4 SF alloy steering plate & bellcranks Posted: 03 May 2018 08:26 AM PDT Revolution Design Racing Products from Germany has introduced two new aluminium option parts for the Yokomo YZ-4 SF off-road buggy in the form of an aluminium steering plate and aluminium steering bell cranks. Starting with the steering plate, the part is machined from high-quality 7075-T6 aluminium and it replaces the standard carbon fibre part with the alloy plate, improving stability and steering precision. In addition the updated design does away with the kit’s sloppy bushing and shim construction in favour of highly precise ball bearings which results in less play, more precision, an overall improved steering feeling and virtually no wear. The steering plate comes black anodised to match the remainder of the buggy’s alloy parts. Also new is the aluminium steering bellcrank set for the Yokomo YZ-4 SF 1/10th 4WD buggy. The set is a direct replacement for the standard composite parts, machined from aircraft-grade 7075-T6 aluminium and it comes black anodised and with machined silver edge details. Using the alloy steering bellcranks over the standard parts adds much needed precision to the steering system while also greatly improving overall durability. The increased overall rigidity will also help with steering emphasis, enhancing the steering feeling especially in high-bite track conditions such as carpet and astro turf.

Ruddog clear 25mm double sided tape Posted: 03 May 2018 07:01 AM PDT New from Ruddog Products comes a clear double sided tape for a wide range of applications. Coming as convenient 100cm rolls the clear silicone tape offers a comparable thickness to standard foam tapes, however it is much easier to remove from the chassis and electronics while still offering loads of bonding strength for demanding off-road and on-road applications. The somewhat thin tape keeps the electronics as low as possible for minimal influence on the car’s overall centre of gravity and at 25mm width it is ideal for speed controllers, receivers, personal transponders and many more.

Daniel Grobe wins at Thornhill Championship Series Rd4 Posted: 03 May 2018 04:26 AM PDT Round 4 of the Thornhill Championship Series was held recently at the Thornhill Racing Circuit in Hutto, Texas. After having some issues in round one and two of E-Truggy qualifying it was Daniel Grobe who got together a brilliant drive in Q3 to secure the overall TQ with the only 9-lap run of the class. For the double A-mains, Daniel would get a clean start in A1, but an early mistake dropped him to 2nd as in turn Jason Hill made a mistake and Daniel got by, where he would control the pace, not push the truck to much, and would take the win. In A2, Daniel got off to a clean start again with no mistakes and he didn’t want to throw away a win, or crash hard, as Jason again made a mistake and he would over drive to chase Daniel down. Up front Daniel took another win for the overall as Jason Hill came in 2nd and Isaac Price ended the day in 3rd. Source: Xray [teamxray.com] |
