WTS Diamond Edition Transponder RC4 Compatible
22 Oct 2020
Monaco RC has released the WTS (Waldo Timing System) Diamond Edition Transponder that features a unique transparent case for a refined look. Compatible with all RC systems including RC version 4 decoders (with firmware 4.4 or lower) its operation is purely lap counting and timing using its seven digit ID number.
Spektrum, part of the big Horizon Hobby family, choose to pair the DX5 Rugged transmitter with the SR6200A 6-channel receiver that includes the Spektrum exclusive technologies like the AVC (Active Vehicle Control) that can be tuned easily to match your skill level or driving style.
This bundle also supports the Spektrum Smart technology that ensures that all of your model’s electronics work together seamlessly for the greatest efficiency and performance.
We are living really incredible times with continuous technology innovation also in our hobby. SuperScale 2020 has released an Active suspension kit For RC Cars based on the famous Arduino board. It’s designed to add incredible scale realism to your build by replicating real cars suspension behaviour.
Simulate weight and adjust the suspension to your liking on the fly. Brake led lights are activated when deceleration is sensed, there is also an exhaust backfire led control and a PWM trigger output for the horn (custom sound) of a sound module (like the ESS DUAL).
Fleta Pro V2 Revolution 1S Brushless ESC Black
04 Sep 2019
Muchmore has just revealed the brand new Fleta Pro V2 Revolution 1S. This redesigned version of the Fleta Pro features an all aluminium case offers better heat dissipation compared to the previous 2018 variant. This speed controller is develop for use with 1S LiPo batteries 3/4-cell NiMH, and therefore it’s aimed at 1/12th scale use. Its internal switch makes the wiring simpler as it removes the need for an external one.
Atomic Sensor ESC for Mini-Z 1:28 or 1:24 Cars
18 Aug 2019
Atomic RC has presented their new tiny, precise and powerful sensor ESC for brushless motor 130 size (15, 16mm diameter). The speed controller is compatible with both sensorless or sensored type and uses a new BEC power supply system which provides adequate and stable power to the servo, you will also find that the servo works faster and with greater precision
The Atomic Sensor ESC is the perfect choice for Mini-Z and features a magnesium alloy casing which provides high efficiency heat dissipation and several safety features such as: low voltage cutoff, overheating protection and motor back current protection.
Arrowmax Tyre Warmer for 1/8th GT and Buggy
13 Aug 2019
Arrowmax has introduced their all new Tyre Warmer for 1/8th Scale GT and Buggy. Tires need heat to reach the proper temperature for optimal grip on the race track. Arrowmax tire warmers provide consistent, even heating so you can get the maximum performance from your tires.
Warmers have built-in independent sensors. You can set the front/rear temperature independently. With the XT60 style connector, the user can choose DC input or connect to an optional 3s LiPo type battery.
Onisiki Aluminum Case Hyper Booster Capacitor
12 Aug 2019
The electronics are not all the same and the quality of the components can sometimes make a big difference in terms of performance. Rody Cheung, a member of the Hong Kong RC drift group has made a comparison video of a normal aftermarket capacitor and the Onisiki Hyper Booster Capacitor (#ONI4603). Let’s watch the video below to see the difference.
