All of Toe-In/Out, Maximum Steering Lock, Ackermann, Caster, Camber and Ride Height can all be easily measured and adjusted without the need for constant attachment and detachment of components.

The setup system will come with finger operated easy nuts for fast assembly and disassembly minimizing the use of wrenches.

Easily duplicate diff setups after rebuild or assemble multiple units to identical setups when using the same differential oils. Diff housing and gears are made from composite material ensuring durability and maximum acceleration.

RPM New Motors & ESC

Ultimate High Speed Motor for Serious Racers

Have you always wanted to know what it would be like to have the same motor that a factory pro driver uses? Novak has recently launched 2 new premium brushless motors – #3610R and #3617R.

These motors and manufactured with highest quality components, for example, the vented end bells allow you to push the motors harder while not overheating. Ceramic bearings add efficiency to your motor’s basic operation and are designed as long lasting durable bearings. What would a top-of-the-line motor be without red wire? The red wire stators are one of Novak’s most coveted items, and are used in the Premium Ballistic Spec brushless motor.

NOVAK (#3617R) Premium Ballistic 540 Racing Brushless Motor – 17.5T

NOVAK (#3610R) Premium Ballistic 540 Racing Brushless Motor – 10.5T

Novak has recently launched 3 new Brushless Motors (#3606, 3607 & 3609) for those drivers need for speed. To complete the racing package, this next-generation spec motor series contains an easy-to-adjust timing assembly that alters the RPM range and retains previous user settings, allowing for strategic and smart spec racing. Additionally, these sleek motors are ROAR/IFMAR approved, boast a removable shielded sensor harness, and contain a 12.3mm nickel-plated sintered Neodymium rotor for maximum motor acceleration, braking power and performance in high-temperature conditions.

Are you Keeping Your Speed Under Controlled?

The driving performance are not only influenced solely by the motors, but also affected by the efficiency of the ESC. Good ESC should have great torque and low speed drivability, the power that delivered from the ESC to the motor should be very smooth and should have multi settings options to adopt different road conditions.

Novak has recently launched new GTB 2 w/X-Drive Racing Brushless ESC (#1749), which has nine adjustable parameters to maximum performance on the track: Minimum Brake (10 settings), Drag Brake (10 settings), Minimum Drive (10 settings), Dead Band (5 settings), Throttle Curve (Linear/Expo), Brake Curve (Linear/Expo), Brake Frequency (10 settings), Brake End-Point (10 settings), and Drive Frequency (10 settings). In addition, the Novak X-Drive™ provides enhanced throttle response, ultra smooth power delivery, higher top speeds, and cooler operating temperatures.
