LRP X22 Stock Spec & N.B. 6.5T Modified motors Posted: 11 Jan 2019 07:29 AM PST LRP have announced the release of a full line of X22 Stock Spec brushless motors as well as the introduction of the X22 N.B. 6.5T modified motor especially for non-boosted modified classes. All motors use a precision-machined 7075-T6 aluminium can with the Stock Spec motors featuring additional machining for improved cooling and a lower weight. A machined window makes way for the laser-etched winding marking, ensuring easy identification while the aluminium backplate with machined pockets further enhances heat dissipation. The motors are rounded off by heavy duty solder tabs. As for the X22 N.B. 6.5T Modified motor, the power plant was developed especially with non-boosted modified racing in mind, a new class that ensures exceptional top speeds that are still manageable for us mere mortals. The motor builds on the X22 Stock Spec and features a 6.5T modified winding, an optimised rotor and adjustable 0 to 60 degree timing.

Xray X1’19 hard 2.5mm graphite chassis Posted: 11 Jan 2019 01:48 AM PST Coming from Xray is a new hard 2.5mm graphite main chassis plate for the X1’19 formula car. Machined from a harder carbon fibre material and being 2.5mm thick the chassis is meant to increase stability while eliminating oversteering, creating a car that is easier to drive in high to very high bite conditions. Due to its torsional rigidity and the narrow front end, the chassis also helps to eliminate the scrub effect during high speed cornering.

O.S Speed B2103 Type-R & Type-S engines Posted: 11 Jan 2019 01:18 AM PST O.S. Engines have introduced their new Speed B2103 Type-R and Type-S 3.5cc buggy engines. As for the Type-R engine, the long-stroke 5-plus-3-port power plant was developed for medium to high speed tracks and it features a new crankcase, end cap and 22E carburettor with the DLC-coated crankshaft coming tungsten balanced. The engine utilises a tall cooling head for best possible cooling in high ambient temperatures. As for the Type-S engine, the 3—plus-1-port long-stroke power plant offers increased torque in the low to mid RPM range while being easy on fuel consumption. The engine utilises the same updated crankcase, end cap and DLC-coated crankshaft, but comes with a more efficient 22D carburettor for smoother throttle response and greater mileage. The engine sports a low-profile cooling head for an overall lower centre of gravity. Both engines come with a rear ceramic bearing and they are available as engine only or including the T-2100SC exhaust and 85mm M2004SC manifold set. Source: O.S.
