TRP has started comercializing its new version of the GroupZ chassis for Slot cars on its Level 1.
This new version features some considerable improvements on its chassis such as the use of noble materials ( e.g. Carbon SSG) that incorporates aluminium in its interior. It is also mechanized with numerical precision control of its motor mount and a spectacular anodized aluminium look.
We have´been informed that these photos don´t show exactly how the new version of the latest GroupZ V3 chassis will be sold on the market. However what we can do is give you a sneak preview on some of the new features that the new chassis will incorporate. Based on the information that we have received so far, the chassis will be on sale in regular stores almost immediately, and as far as we know a few optional and racing parts will be added so that your GroupZ Slot cars could be even more versatile and competitive.
Here´s a sneak peek of the sort of snap shot that we will be publicizing as often as we can in order to keep you updated on the new version of the Group Z Chassis.
A 4 piece kit is provided for mounting the wheel opposite the differential crown on our Mini-Z´s. This could be a very useful option if you use a differential of the Kyosho series which includes a plastic part that provides enough tolerance. By replacing this plastic part for an aluminium one the play of the wheel will disappear and the car will show greater stability.
Along with the spacers set, an M3 allen screw set will also be supplied to allow for the excellent mounting of the differencial axle.
For some time now on the RCP Foam Tracks, the kyosho 20 rear tire with tread pattern or the 6º PN Racing pattern. To date, the front tires available with the best results have been those by Atomic with 30º and 40º hardness with groove patterns, and the PN Racing RSF20 and RSF15.
A tire that from now on we believe will give a lot to talk about is the front Kyosho 30º tire that provides a bit more spin than the 30º PN Racing RSF15 and the Atomic 30º. Also, for certain types of track outline these can help us cut down our lap times.
This version created by TRP scale is totally compatible with the version that Kyosho has on the market, along with the large difference of its final price that makes it difficult for this chassis accessory to get popular.
The function of the gyroscope in the dnano and MR03 is to offer maximum stability to the car by equiping it with automatic steering and throttle correction in case of skidding of the rear assembly.
We find this very useful when the surface that we race on doesn´t have much grip (e.g. parquet, stone, or polished cement)
Nevertheless, it´s an option that is widely used in competitions given that it provides greater stability for the vehicle. We consider that with the dNaNo and MR03 it is ideal for use at home.
Its operation and components are 100% equal to those of Kyosho.
You can check out the new gyroscopo for Mini-z in our on-line store.
