We have 4 new products to announce today.

The B64 LP Battery Post Set allows for the drop-in fit of the feather-light (150 gram range) "LP" Low-Profile LiPo Batteries into a B64 or B64D.   Dropping between 50 and 70 grams over a conventional shorty battery, the reduced weight and lower CG allows for faster cornering and acceleration.

Racers can use the same baseline setup as the heavier battery pack, but we recommend trying a longer rear link on the hub or tower to gain a bit more rear traction.   Also, you can add 20 grams to the right rear behind the battery to achieve more rear grip and still save tons of weight over a normal battery.

Features:

1. Precision CNC Delrin (TM) material, made in the USA.
2. 2 pcs. included with mount screws, instructions, and Coach's Tips.
3. Recommended for 5 minute modified and up to 7 minute 13.5 4wd races without any drop-off.
4. Fits B64 or B64D.

Also new on our popular line for V2 Associated 12mm pistons (screw-on type) we are offering 3 new variants.   The 3 x 1.5mm Flat pistons are popular for 2wd and 4wd buggies in rear.   Also, we are offering a new 3+1 line of split hole pistons, with the +1 additional hole added to give more grip and forgivement in bumpy conditions compared to a standard 3-hole.    The addition of the small 4^th hole gives less low-speed damping resistance, resulting in more traction.  It also alters the damping progression relative to a conventional piston, giving less resistance initially before ramping as the shock speed increases.

Revolution Design Racing Products have introduced the XB2 Brass Rear 
Weight for all Xray XB2 with laydown gearboxes. The weight is made from 
high-quality brass material and is a direct fit to the vehicle's 
gearbox. The weight adds 34g to the rearmost part of the chassis for 
increased traction in lower grip conditions. The weight comes coated in 
black and with machined gold-colour edge details to match the remainder 
of RDRP's brass option parts.

RC10F6 Factory Team

1:10 Scale Electric 2WD On-Road Competition Race Car

Team Associated is proud to release its entry to the 1:10 scale 2WD electric formula car racing class, the RC10F6 Factory Team Kit, geared for precision and the ultimate in performance.

Full-scale Formula racing is considered one of the most elite forms of racing in existence, with technology and looks off the chart. The engineers behind the doors of Area 51 put maximum effort into the design of the RC10F6 FT kit to make sure the same could be said about their scaled-down version. With a full cast of setting options, an ultra-low center of mass, and sleek styling, the RC10F6 FT is designed to put you at the front of the Formula grid.

With an increase in entries greater than any class at the highly contested ETS series, Formula is growing at a rapid rate. All aspects of the RC10F6 FT were considered and optimized to make sure it would stand above its competition. Performance, adjustability, durability, and style were weighed heavily, and the RC10F6 FT kit shows its hand with a complete package of adjustments and options right out of the box. From front to back, with graphite control arms, the fully adjustable front end, the ultra-smooth rear pivot, and wings styled after current full-scale Formula rulings, no corner was left untouched. At an affordable price point, the RC10F6 FT comes with everything to assure you will be at the front of the pack. With such a well-balanced platform, it's easy to see that the RC10F6 FT kit is another Champion by Design from Team Associated!

RC10B64D Team Kit

It all started with a 1-2-3 sweep
In 2007, the RC10B44 swept the podium at the I.F.M.A.R. World Championships. Since then, Team Associated's first 1:10 scale 4WD buggy has held a dominant place at the front of the field. The B44 platform has gone on to win numerous National and International titles and added two more I.F.M.A.R. World Championships to its legacy in 2011 and 2013.

Speed, grip, and durability
Designed to take advantage of today's faster-than-ever tracks, the RC10B64D Team Kit offers increased durability, all new suspension geometry, a wider tuning window, improved weight distribution, and easy maintenance. Excelling on high-traction surfaces, the B64D's adjustable axle height and roll centers result in a stable yet nimble platform. With a new and improved center differential, the B64D rewards the driver with maximum drive out of all four wheels on dirt and clay surfaces.

The Schumacher CAT revolutionised off road racing when it was introduced in 1986, being years ahead of the competition.
It became an international success winning British, European, Japanese, Australian, and American championships.
It was updated with a longer wheelbase and Masami Hirosaka went on to win the 1987 1/10th 4WD IFMAR World Championships in Romsey, England. 
We are now excited to offer this iconic replica of the car that Masami used to win the first of his many World Championships, and put Schumacher Racing on the map as a leading RC car manufacturer.

The CAT XLS Masami features:
 

- Ball differentials, which had been invented by Cecil Schumacher in 1978.

- Unique integrator system offering adjustable torque split between front and rear.

- Double wishbone suspension with massive travel.
- Alloy coil over oil filled shock absorbers.
- Full replica decal set.

- Huge steering lock to handle the tightest tracks.

- Front O ring ‘crashback’ system to minimise front end crash damage.

- Compact design with low polar moment of inertia and low centre of gravity gives the CAT remarkable manoeuvrability and balance.

- Tough polycarbonate bodyshell and undertray to keep out the dirt.

- Original Schumacher spiked tyres.

- Accepts period nicad/nimh batteries or modern shorty lipos.

- Accepts brushed or brushless motors.

- Transmission upgrade available to handle modern high powered motors, and create a class leading buggy for historic RC racing.

Further details available soon

Due March 2017

Nous avons la tristesse de vous informer du décès de notre ami, Nicolas Maurel...

A titre personnel et au nom de toute l'équipe PETITRC, nous avons une très grande pensée envers sa compagne et sa famille. Toutes nos condoléances.... Repose en paix Nicolas....

(Lors de la LRP Cup en Allemagne dans les années 90)

The new Awesomatix A800 is hitting the stores shortly and soon many new lucky owners will enjoy it.
It is a departure of the shaft driven layout following now the trend of 2 belt driven cars.
Although a proven choice, Awesomatix has chosen to explore even further the posibilities to improve weight distribution and maximize the performance potential of the car.
By placing the spur gear on the right side (battery side) of the car, it allows to put the motor by 2mm further to the centre of the car as well as give direct access to the spur gear without the requirement of removing belts or upper deck. More on this later.
The entire transmission has been designed with the goal to be the lightest and most efficient possible. Low friction belts and pulleys help to achieve these goals as well as better reliability is achieved through the use of specific materials and well thought design.

Three chassis options are available. Here you can see the two of them. The one on top is a very nice aluminium hard anodized scratch resistant chassis with a lot of milling and a 3D shape where a concave effect is visible at the bottom of the chassis. This has proven to perform very well in many different conditions on carpet racing.The carbon chassis is a standard design with symmetrical milling on both sides of the main axis to produce even flex characteristics

Alexander Hagberg started his quest for a seventh consecutive European championship title in his favourite class by immediately pulling a gap over Ollie Payne and then clicked off the laps unchallenged to take the leg one from Ollie with Joern Neumann having a lonely run to third. Leg two was a repeat of leg one at the very front, with Ollie just unable to challenge Alex, the two both capable of lapping at the same speed but Alex looking a little more comfortable at 100%. This allowed him to edge away, crossing the line to retain his title at the earliest possible opportunity at the end of leg two. Payne crossed the line in second with Freddy Sudhoff making his way up to third With the title safely in his pocket Alex opted to sit out leg three, presenting an opportunity for the remaining drivers to score a leg win to improve their overall position. Joern Neumann managed to get ahead of Ollie Payne early on, and a win combined with his third place in leg one would beat the two second places that Ollie had scored. Ollie eventually battled his way past Joern and proceeded to pull away to take the leg win and secure second overall, with Joern’s second place in the leg confirming his place on the overall podium.

Joern Neumann led away from his pole position in leg one, then a small mistake on the opening lap presented Markus Mobers with an opportunity to make a move for the lead. This also allowed Mark Stiles and Louis Parker past Joern too, giving Markus the chance to build a lead while the rest of the field battled over second position. Neumann eventually prevailed to appear at the front of the chasing pack, but too late to present a challenge to Mobers who took home the leg win from Neumann and a hard charging Louis Parker in third. Leg two proved to be relatively uneventful, with Neumann taking a lights to flag win from Mobers with Stiles in third, meaning the title would be decided in the third leg. Neumann led leg three away, but was unable to shake the attention of Mobers who remained within one second of Joern for the first six minutes, unable to quite get close enough to make a move but not allowing him any breathing space either. Eventually Neumann managed to edge away as the pair carved through the traffic, crossing the line in the lead to secure his maiden European championship title in the 1/12th class. Markus finished second again to secure second overall, while Mark Stiles took third in the leg to ensure he would take the final step on the overall podium.

Toute l'équipe de PETITRC vous souhaite un excellent et joyeux Noël 2018 !

All the PETITRC's crew wish you an HAPPY CHRISTMAS 2018!

Developed by our international race team it is best used on Astro and carpet surfaces.

The team have found the wider pivot has better jump landing performance and increased agility in direction change.

The conversion only increases the pivot width and does not increase the track width of the buggy.

U7139 - Wide Rear Pivot Conversion - CAT K2

The Silverstone Winter Series concluded with wins for Tom Yardy in 2WD, Paul Crompton in 4WD, and Richard Miller in the truck class.

Tom Yardy secured the 2WD series win from team mates Charlie Ware in 2nd and Jack Neal in 3rd, all running the new Cougar KC.

Greg Williams wrapped up the 4WD series win with his CAT K2, ahead of Matt Dodd and Felix de Hamel.
Congratulations to the drivers and everyone involved in putting on another excellent series.

This is a description of the buggy 4WD Serpent Spyder SDX4 Titan revisited by Pavel Dostàl alias Frufli.
Voici présentation du Serpent Spyder SDX4 Titan revu par Pavel Dostàl alias Frufli.

Carbon chassis, carbon side plate, titanium screw, titanium turn buckle, titanium center bone, titanium slipper shaft, titanium slipper outdrive, titanium diff oitdrive, titanium CVD gear coupler, titanium CVD driveshaft FR-RR, titanium CVD wheelaxle FR-RR, titanium pivot pin RR-FR, titanium M3 and M4 worm imbus, NEW alu suspension bracket with the possibility of adjusting the arms in all directions, NEW alu shocktower, NEW alu steeringrack with ball bearings, alu servosaver, NEW alu steering set, bearings with ceramic balls. Possibility to adjust the flexibility of the chassis. The lightest 4WD buggy in the world (1510- 1540g), Thanks to the universal shape of the side panels, it is possible to use bodies of all known manufacturers( Xray, Asso, Team Lossi, Yokomo).

According Frufli " I often have more and more improvements in my thoughts. However, some are very complex for amateur production, such as a new type of wheel suspension so that the shock absorbers can be used horizontally. A very simple principle occurred to me, but new wheel suspensions would have to be made for this type. Furthermore, it would be easy to produce active swivel rear wheels and other ideas."
