New from Schumacher is this re badge of the Picco 8port .28 engine. Schumacher have developed the head to maintain a low center of gravity and to grace your car with highly distinctive looks.
Used by schumacher to superb effect to power the Fusion .28 to hellish speeds. This offers a financially sensible option to some of the big money big blocks available. Well respected for the excellent top end that they offer it makes sense as a bash or winter series engine for your 1/8th buggies or truggies. Comes supplied with rotostart backplate and requires suitable starter mechanism, non pull start back plate is also available.

Just another great product from Hudy for the great Xray buggy, The 1/8 Offroad Buggy Droop Gauge.

Proper chassis droop is a critical yet frequently overlooked set-up feature of modern 1/8 off-road cars and truggies. It is essential for proper handling of the car to get balanced down travel on each side of the suspension and as such HUDY is the first RC company to develop and produce the first purposefully-designed 1/8 Off-road large-size droop gauge support blocks.
Using the support blocks is super easy. Simply remove the tires from your buggy and using flat HUDY Set-up Board #108202 put the car chassis on the support blocks; place the front support block below the servo saver, and place the rear support block below the rear suspension mounting. Using the #107711 HUDY Chassis Droop Gauge with elevated scales, measure the droop under the wheel axle hex. Use the downstop screws to alter the suspension droop on each side of the car; the shocks should extend out far enough that they do not limit the suspension arm movement. Ensuring equal and proper suspension droop will allow the car to achieve a proper traction level and weight transfer depending on track conditions. Please refer to your’s car set-up book to learn more about how to adjust the droop of your buggy.
• chassis droop gauge support blocks (30mm) for 1/8 off-road cars
• allows adjustment of front/rear droop when used with #107711 HUDY Chassis Droop Gauge
• CNC-machined, made of high-quality lightweight duraluminum
• inside of the gauges additionally machined to minimize wall thickness and reduce unnecessary weight without compromising strength or durability
• black elox-coating for smooth, long-lasting finish and stylish look
• laser engraved with HUDY logo
• 2 pieces in a set

Proline own Team drivers Scott Hughes and Mark Pavidis champions their classes at the recent Southern California Saturday Series round 3. Interestingly for us this 2 faces look familiar when they took picture side by side, or in this case, cropped to be together. Remember the world Final? Well never mind that, it is more interesting to see Scott win his truggy class with his new radio team, Futaba after Scott recent move from KO Propo. Do you think he made the right decision? I think the win answer the question.
Congrats to Scott and of course to Mark Pavidis too on his buggy class.

We have been waiting for this truggy specific servo, the new KO PROPO PDS 2386 and it finally is out for us truggy craze fan. Thanks to KO Propo, we will definitely order this in the new future.
With 240 OZ/IN of torque, this servo can even pull our 3 years old child out under the blanket. I probably kidding there but that is the fact. With full metal gears throughout, built in heat sink, new motor and bushing collared upper case, there is no wonder why this servo survived the torture in the last year 1/8 Worlds. Just great. We definitely got to have this in our own possession.
