Schelle RC8B4.1 2-Row Mid Set Carbon Hub Towers

New from Kurt Wenger’s Schelle Racing Innovations brand comes these 2-Row Mid Set Carbon Hub Towers for the Team Associated RC8B4.1 1:8 Buggy platform. Made from 3mm carbon fibre, the width of hole locations is a split with 2 holes on either side of centre location. Run the shorter location with softer springs, and then the mid height as standard, then add the tall setting to limit side to side roll in rear, and get more steering feel to the front. For many cases the longest link on these is the best grip/stability but with softer springs you may want to go even shorter.

I first tried this radio in April of 2025 and was instantly sold. Due to the 2025 World Championships, I chose to stay with what I was most familiar with but after the Florida Carpet Championships, I began the switch. Whether they would end up as my sponsor or not, I chose this radio because it has all of the features I like best. I’m ecstatic to be apart of the fastest growing radio brand in competitive RC racing. I can’t wait to see all of my personal improvements and help the team provide a more quality and refined product for our community of racers. See you all at the races!’
