NEW Trigger system on the way!
 
Hello all.
I have been working diligently for the last year on a new trigger concept that I think many of you might find intriguing.
The trigger it's self is made of a 4x27x20mm ball bearing that makes the action very smooth and ergonomic, so the slightest movement has a very precise feel that no other trigger system can offer.

Not yet pictured is the inner rings that will accommodate smaller fingers and tighten up the finger lock in full circumference.

You will also notice that the trigger is set forward more than the stock position. This was due to clearance issues from the factory handle.
At first I thought this was going to be a problem, but after prototyping the design and installing it, I am very pleased with the over all feel of the unit.
This could be an issue for someone will very very small hands, such as a small child, but I myself am not a large person with medium/small hands and find that it feel great.
As things progress on the production setup, I plan to produce triggers for the 4PX (as shown here), the M12S, as well as the DX4R and the newer systems coming out.
Will also be looking into making a unit for stock Traxxas transmitters for those who just want to improve the feel of what they get from their RTR box set.

Cool idea.

I posted on the FB page......very cool idea. I'd definitely like to give one a try on my 4PX. By chance, would you be looking to make one for the 4PL/4PLS?
My son's (10 & 8) race with those radios, and I have to use quite a bit of foam on the trigger because of their small fingers.

I have a 4PLS I will take a good look at and see what it's like. If's its setup like I suspect I may be able to offer one for it

Love the idea, great concept. Be sure you license and patent your designs, now before later. ....Just a little KYA.

Patents have already been applied for last year. The whole process takes about 2 years
