New from VP-Pro comes this 7″ polycarbonate rear wing for 1:10 Buggy. This new 7 inch wide wing is made from 1mm thick durable polycarbonate and specifically designed for dirt tracks. With multiple cut lines that give you the different downforce based on your preference, the wing is highly tuneable. The centre wing is helpful to guide your car and offer improved stability. It comes as two clear and untrimmed wings.
In its latest 1:10 2WD Buggy kit release Team Associated has added the RC10 Factory Team Kit. Today’s R/C tracks demand a lot from a vintage platform and the AREA 51 Factory Team has been hard at work creating the ultimate RC10 for today’s tracks. The features in this kit are exactly how our Factory Team drivers setup their RC10’s for modern racing. With big bore shocks, captured hinge pins, 12mm wheel hex’s, exclusive chassis colour, all new Mirage Pro body and more, this is an RC10 like never before.

Xray has released this Slipper Eliminator Set for One-Way Slipper Clutch on its XB4 1:10 4WD Buggy. The specially designed slipper eliminator set is intended for stock class racing, combining the efficiency of a solid axle on-power with the drivability benefits of a one-way system off-power. The slipper eliminator completely removes the slipper effect on-power, delivering direct drivetrain connection for improved acceleration, sharper throttle response, and more consistent power delivery. Reduced drivetrain rotating mass further enhances efficiency and responsiveness, making the car more reactive under acceleration. Off-power, the system retains the one-way bearing function, reducing front braking influence and helping to stabilize the car on corner entry, during jump landings, and under high-speed deceleration. This results in a calmer, more predictable handling feel, especially in technical track sections. Precision CNC-machined from Premium Swiss 7075 T6 aluminium and outdrives from Hudy Spring Steel, the set offers high strength, low weight, and long-term durability, making it an ideal solution for competitive stock class applications where efficiency and consistency are critical.

Well known Tamiya website The RC Racer has released files for the 3D printing of a Front Stiffener for the iconic Japanese manufacturer’s TRF421X 1:10 Electric Touring Car. Now common options in modern touring car, the Front stiffener helps with preventing the bonnet flexing on lightweight body shells. Run by Craig Howard, The RC Racer has created two versions – Soft or Solid. This Soft allows a little more flex at the front of the bulkhead. It makes the front end more stable into the corner. The Solid version is if you want to keep more initial bite into the corner.
New from Schumacher for their CAT PB 1:10 4WD Buggy are these Optional Steering Arms. Used by their factory race team at the World Championship and other International events, the CAT PB ‘2 pip’ Carbon Fibre Steering Arms offer a new Ackermann position which gives more initial steering and has smoother mid to exit steering. This will help on tracks which require a less ‘tail happy CAT’ when exiting corners and allows the driver to lean on the steering without any snap oversteer.

Under its Special Parts line Italy’s Mikimodel has introduced this new optional Long Version carbon fibre Bumper for the Yokomo MS2.0 Electric Touring Car. The new size of the front bumper protects the chassis in the event of a major frontal impact. The standard version doesn’t rest on the front bumpers, while the Mikimodel version rests perfectly, transferring any impact to the centrr bumpers, perfectly protecting the chassis.

Reedy Power has announced the release of their new Sonic 900 Driver Edition 1:8 Competition Brushless motors. Available in a 1900kV & 2100kV option, the ‘Driver Edition’ was developed in close collaboration with the Reedy Power racing team, the Sonic 900 DE builds on Reedy’s proven Sonic platform. An updated rotor concept delivers a smoother, more linear power band, higher top speed, and improved reliability for 1:8 racers and casual enthusiasts. Each option of the motor comes with a unique rotor which is interchangeable between both and sold separately to fine tune power output and delivery for specific track conditions and driver preference. All Sonic 900 DE motors feature a precision CNC-machined can with adjustable timing. An integrated heat sink lowers operating temperatures which results in less fade over the course of a race, longer run times, and increased motor life. Sensored operation results in a smooth and controllable power band while the powerful 4-pole rotor is supported by precision ball bearings for reliability. A 200mm sensor wire is included.

Having shown a prototype of its 1:8 electric buggy at the Nuremberg Toy Fair in Germany at the end of January, Kyosho has officially released images & details of the production Inferno MP11e. The latest-generation race chassis based on the nitro Inferno MP11 that debuted in 2025, is optimised to deliver top-level competitiveness in premier EP racing events, with the Japanese manufacturer stating that 1:8 electric buggy has gained global status highlighted by the inaugural IFMAR World Championship in 2025. where they competed with the previous MP10 platform. Features of the MP11e include a dedicated electric chassis made from 3mm A7075 duralumin with hard anodising. Precisely machined and milled in key areas to optimise weight distribution, controlled flex, stability, and overall rigidity. Adopting aluminium front hub carriers with a 12°kingpin angle. This design optimises steering geometry for increased stability at high speeds and refined drivability across all track conditions. Engineered for maximum aerodynamic efficiency, the new body features newly designed side rails on the cab roof, side spoilers, and a refined rear spine design. These elements deliver superior high-speed stability and enhanced cornering capabilities. The front/rear lower suspension arms utilise the proven Inferno MP11 sturdy design. Rigidity can be further tuned using optional carbon plates, providing the versatility to adapt your setup to specific track conditions and layout requirements. Adopting the latest MP11 standard front and rear bulkheads with a split type bearing holder design. This enables quick differential height swaps for optimal grip tuning and delivers a major leap in maintenance efficiency. Designed with a low centre of gravity and user-friendly gear mesh adjustment, the differential height is easily tunable by swapping bearing bushings, offering three distinct height settings. Easy diff access design with dedicated wire holders for neat and reliable cable routing. Features a straight-line drivetrain design that ensures highly efficient power transmission. Split left-right battery layout lowers the centre of gravity and optimises weight balance. Adjustable sliding battery tray supports short and mid-size batteries and allows fine tuning of weight distribution. The receiver is housed in a sealed dust-resistant box with a screw-fastened lid for protection while the ESC is mounted on a separate radio plate with adjustable fore-aft positioning for weight balance tuning.
