13-Upgrades for Under $50 - RC Car Action

RC Car Action says: "Although you can easily spend hundreds of dollars on a single RC upgrade, there are numerous upgrades that you can make without breaking the bank. Sure, brushless motor systems, fully-digital transmitters, 11.1V LiPos and race-tuned nitro engines are among the most expensive and sought-after products, but there are actually tons of upgrades that can be found for relatively little cost. In fact, many of the most useful upgrades on the market are under $50, and here are 13 inexpensive upgrades that are sure to make a big difference." 

MIP can help you with two of them!

"Shock Rebuild Kit
All shocks require maintenance, and buying a rebuild kit helps breathe new life into an old suspension. Rebuild kits usually include new o-rings, pistons, bladders and shock boots—all of which degrade over time and need to be replaced."

CV/Universal Drive Shafts

If your vehicle uses dog bone-style drive shafts, upgrading to CV or universal-style shafts will greatly improve drivetrain efficiency—which has numerous positive effects on your car’s performance."

As RC Car Action writer Michael Wortel concludes, "RC upgrades don’t always have to cost over $200. In fact, some of the most useful upgrades on the market are under $50! So much about RC performance is about the “little things,” and thankfully little things usually involve little cost. So before you dump $200 into your car, think about getting four smaller upgrades instead; you will probably be better-off in the big picture."

May we suggest one more RC Upgrade?  For under $20, you can toss those flimsy l-wrenches and experience the amber-handled comfort and precision of the highly popular MIP Thorp line of wrench drivers, available in hex-tip and ballend-tip, Classic MIP Thorp hand held and MIP SPeed Tips for power screwdrivers.
