RSD damper mount.

Reflex Racing top damper system.
This unit works for both tri damper systems and disc damper systems. It will fit Mini-Z MR-02, MR-03 and MR-03VE.
I am also glad to tell you that this is a true "bolt on system". No grinding or modifications needed.

The install are super easy, and everything are very precise and a perfect match against the RR top chassis plate. No slop at all!

It consists of a aluminium base, that attaches to the top chassis plate, and a carbon damper mount that attaches to the alu base with two screws. Also a lot of hardware included. Springs, screws etc.


The whole assembly are very sturdy. Much much stiffer than the single carbon fiber mounts available.

Most of us are soldering the motor wires to the chassis, and this makes service a bit of work since you have had to desolder the motor cables, or take out the brushes on the motor to split everyting. Goodby to all of this.
Here we have an assembly that are much more service friendly, since the carbon damper mount are screwed on to the alu base.

You may have to work a bit with damper angles if you are using side shocks since the carbon damper plate will be 2mm higher than a regular carbon plate mounted all the way down on the top chassis plate.

Adjusting wheelbase are alsovery easy to do, since you dont touch the base at all. Only the two screws on the carbon plate.
The mount for top shock are threaded, and also has a spacer with perfect height. The distance from front to rear of the top oil shock are perfect this time. Earlier we have had to adjust the length of the shock to get perfect travel and length. Now it is bolt on.

Weight.
This will add around 1 gram of weight compared to the old RR damper mount. So far testing has not showed any more traction rolls. Actually traction roll problems went largely away with the long arms and lower tower bar, but I was a bit afraid of the increased weight on top of the chassis.
