Australian RC company RC Maker introduced a very interesting product some days ago. The new 3D Pro Carbon Tire Balancer is a perfect tool for all 1:10 Onroad and Offroad racers who want to extract everything from their racing tires. The Tire Balancer is very compact and racers can transport it in their bags very easy. Read the RC Maker product description here:
Introducing our brand new 3D Pro Carbon Tire Balancer! With a multi-material construction of 7075 aluminum, 5mm carbon fiber with a 3D printed base, we have managed to achieve a lightweight, precise and smooth looking tire balancer! Tire balancing is essential for smooth car handling, even the slightest imbalance at high RPM can cause extreme vibrations throughout the car.

The super-free, ball bearing axle provides minimal rotational resistance, so the heaviest part of the tire dips downward, which should be compensated for by placing weight at the top. We recommend using plain blue tape, as the centrifugal force of the spinning wheel will easily hold it in place, and it can be removed or modified as needed. The base can be removed for easier packing and has a small tray for storing small parts at the track. This balancer can be used with 1:10 Onroad, 1:10 Offroad and No Prep Drag wheels with a 12mm hex.
