Spotted something on KennKyuukai Japanese Drift blog that showcases a new release by one of the local RC Drift circuits in Japan. This new conversion kit labelled Grow Works, is manufactured by one of the local RC Drift circuit called Tail Sliders in Fukuyama Japan. This is one of the most interesting conversion kits seen on the market today. The new conversion kit utilizes the longitudinal battery positioning of the Street Jam OTA-R31 chassis. Now the CE-RX chassis is starting to resemble more of the SJ OTA-R31.

Keyence Luxon KG Series Brushless Motors
Keyence is well known for providing top quality electronics, these Luxon KG series brushless sensored motors offer the ultimate performance.
Achieves an increase in output efficiency through its specialized structure, it offers stable motor control performance with high-performance bearings and low cogging torque which are common features of the LUXON series. The KG series makes use of these functions while not relying on the volume of the neodymium magnet, providing the motor itself with high output characteristics! Uses both torque during acceleration, and rolling in neutral, two direct operational feelings that are opposed to each other. With its built-in high efficiency system there is little heat generation. Due to this, the range of gear ratio settings has been expanded.

Scale Build Hachi-roku Fest
We previously featured a 1:10 scale build of the Toyota 4A-GE engine from Demi76. Once again Demi76 has taken the build to another level, this time called the Hachi-roku Fest. This project takes scale building to another level, almost every detail of a Toyota Trueno AE86 is replicated, the attention to detail is amazing. Every little part is hand crafted, from the seats, interior elements and under the hood/bonnet, this truly is a one of a kind build project like no other. Drift Mission is very proud to feature the spectacular Hachi-roku Fest from demi76. Special thanks to Demi76, Sesto Drift Team and RC Drift Italy forum for sharing this very impressive build.

Eagle Racing TB-03 GRT V2 Conversion Kit Review
The Tamiya TB-03D was one of the first cars in the Drift Mission garage. It has been gathering dust ever since the pursuit of counter-steer took over DM staff. After the success of Eagle Racing TA05 conversion, we decided the TB03 should also have an opportunity to be updated. This conversion kit also gives the TB03 some much needed upgrades. Similar to the Tamiya VDS, the motor is now shifted to the front of the chassis. The TB-03 V2 GRT conversion kit comes fully assembled from Eagle Racing. This conversion kit will update the stock Tamiya TB-03D into a high end Tamiya VDS style drift chassis. The Eagle kit includes many carbon graphite and aluminium alloy parts to enhance its performance and aesthetics.

RC-Art CE-RX Rear Stabilizers
Now available from RC-Art Japan, rear stabilizers for the RC-Art CE-RX chassis. Also known as anti-roll bars or sway bars but some, this option part will reduce chassis roll during cornering. Typically used when the rear of the chassis experiences too much body roll due to high traction surfaces. This way the chassis becomes more responsive and easier to control.
