Press Release From Revolution Design:
www.revolution-rc.com

The Revolution Design Tungsten ESC Weight is a 1.0 mm-thin tungsten plate that slides under almost any 1/10-scale speed controller with a 35 × 34 mm footprint - exactly the base size of popular units such as the Hobbywing XR10 Pro or RUDDOG RXS. Because tungsten packs about 19.3 g/cm³—more than twice the density of brass (≈ 8.7 g/cm³) and far above steel (≈ 7.85 g/cm³) - the plate delivers 22 g of ballast while remaining half as thick as typical 2 mm brass shims and even slimmer than many 1.5 mm tungsten alternatives. The result is a notably lower centre of gravity and a perfectly placed counter-weight to balance the battery side of the chassis, promoting smoother weight transfer and more predictable handling.

A square 35 × 34 mm outline matches the ESC’s case. Precision-ground edges, a natural matte grey finish and laser-etched logos underscore the premium build. Mounting is quick with 0.1–0.2 mm double-sided tape.

FEATURES

  • Ultra-dense tungsten construction for maximum mass in minimum height
  • Only 1.0 mm thick: lowers electronics and centre of gravity better than brass or thicker tungsten plates
  • 35 × 34 mm footprint fits the most common 1/10 ESCs (Hobbywing XR10 Pro, RUDDOG RXS, etc.)

TECHNICAL DATA

  • Material: Tungsten alloy
  • Weight: 22 g ± 1 %
  • Length × Width × Thickness: 35 mm × 34 mm × 1.0 mm
  • Finish: Fine-ground, natural tungsten grey
  • Part Number: RDRP0722

This postage-stamp–sized tungsten block squeezes 11 g of ballast into just 20 × 10 mm and a mere 3 mm height. Thanks to tungsten’s density of ≈ 19.3 g cm⁻³ - more than double that of brass and lead - the weight occupies roughly half the volume a brass plate would need, so you can meet minimum weight rules and fine-tune chassis balance without giving up precious real estate in a crowded 1/10-scale layout. Slip it under or next to the receiver, servo or ESC and lower the centre of gravity for calmer weight transfer and more predictable corner-to-corner behaviour.

FEATURES

  • Ultra-dense tungsten packs maximum mass into minimum space
  • Tiny 20 × 10 mm footprint fits under most electronics or battery straps
  • Low 3 mm profile keeps CG down and chassis flex unaffected

TECHNICAL DATA

  • Material: tungsten alloy
  • Weight: 11 g ± 1 %
  • Dimensions (L × W × H): 20 × 10 × 3 mm
  • Finish: fine-ground natural grey
  • Part Number: RDRP0723
