Traxxas have introduced their new heavy-duty suspension arms for the X-Mass monster truck. Weighing nearly 20 pounds and packed with 30+ volts of extreme 8S power, the X-Maxx has redefined toughness for large-scale RC monster trucks. Now there’s a way to get even more brute strength out of the vehicle with new heavy-duty suspension arms made from Traxxas’ latest proprietary composite material. Traxxas designed this composite specifically for high loads and hard landings with just the right amount of flex to resist breaking – even in cold weather. Installation takes only a few minutes with no filing or modification required. The heavy-duty suspension arms work with existing Traxxas accessories, they come in six dynamic colours for full customisation and include upper and lower arms that are available separately.

Made for the Team Associated B74 and Xray XB4 1/10th scale 4WD off-road buggies are the new Ruddog carbon fibre side guard sets. The side pods are moulded from high-quality carbon fibre for a low weight and high-quality surface finish, ensuring cool looks and improved car performance as the side guards weigh in at about 17g for the B74 version and 24g for the XB4 version, which is considerably less than the standard composite plastic side pods. Being made of tough carbon fibre the side guards retain the original flex characteristics of the chassis while offering slightly increased ground clearance during cornering. Included with the side guards comes suitable mounting hardware.

Xray have introduced their new 115mm rear universal driveshaft for the use with the XB8 1/8th scale buggy and the longer #351114 chassis. CNC-machined from sturdy Hudy spring steel the universal design ensures less binding and thus smoother suspension movement for improved rear traction. Strategically-machined, the lightweight driveshaft has been weight-reduced without compromising strength and it comes ground for maximum precision, individually measured and inspected. The shaft fits the XB8’20 and XB8E’20 with the longer #351114 chassis.

Made for the TLR 22 5.0 2WD buggy are Vision Racing’s front and rear carbon fibre shock towers. The +2mm front shock tower raises the shocks by 2mm to give more up travel while the standard rear shock tower matches the stock shock geometry. The +2mm rear variant also raises the shocks by 2mm, giving more up travel. All three are made of high-quality 5mm carbon fibre, the feature micro tune shock positioning for improved adjustability and added webbing for increased durability. The edges also sport a chamfer for cool looks and less splitting issues.

Fenix Racing have introduced new titanium front axles for their Mistral 2.0 formula car kit. The axle shafts are machined from high-quality Grade 5 material and at 4g for a pair, they scrub about 50 percent of weight compared to the standard axles, meaning greatly reduced unsprung weight for a more responsive front suspension action. The axle shafts will also fit many other 1/10th scale formula pan cars and they are available from now on.
