Chassis Focus – Bruno Coelho

Thurs-CoelhoXB416-1

Chassis: Xray XB4 16
Motor: LRP 5.5
ESC: LRP Flow
Batteries: LRP 4500
Radio/Servo: Sanwa
Body – Kit body

Remarks – European Champion in 1/10th 200mm and surprise 2wd pace setter at the opening round of the EOS, Bruno Coelho was fastest in free practice and 2nd after controlled practice here in Japan with the all new Xray XB4 16. The car, which is the final production model, sports an all new aluminium chassis plate with no top deck, the latter being replaced with carbon braces mounted to the centre of the chassis plate. The weight in the car has been moved forward by moving the motor and electronics closer to the front, the result being a car that carries a lot of speed in the corners yet is very easy to drive. Other changes include new front wishbones with different inner pivot pin position, reinforced gearbox cases front and rear and an all new bodyshell.

After the recent ISTC World Championships in California, Red RC gets ready to switches from electric power to nitro power as well as travel to the other side of the World to bring you coverage of the 10th edition of the IFMAR 1:10 Nitro World Championship. With support from Maxima RC Racing Fuel, T-Work’s Asia, Rapicon Max Power RC Fuel, SMART-Workshop, and Infinity, we are excited to be returning to Huge RC Circuit in Bangkok, Thailand, the track of former ISTC World Champion Suirkan Chaidajsuriya hosting the WC for a second time. In 2014 we got to witness Alexander Hagberg claim his first & Xray’s second World title at this unique (and huge!) indoor track. With 2024 a year that we have already seen two historic World title hat tricks, will we see Infinity’s Tadahiko Sahashi become the first ever driver to defend their 1:10 Nitro title? Our coverage starts on November 19 (Tuesday) and runs through to Saturday’s title deciding 1-hour final. We looking forward to you following along as IFMAR crowns its final World Champion of 2024.
