Das Speed (Vitamin Z / DAS Speed, Switzerland) builds precision pit hardware for 1/28 scale racing — charging cradles, safety bags, and chassis upgrades used from club nights to international events.
Premium charging platform for 24 mm LiPos
The DAS Speed Aluminium Charging Cradle (part DAS-0003) is a CNC-machined cradle sized for 24 mm hardcase LiPo packs — the form factor common on serious Mini-Z and 1/28 setups (Reflex 400 mAh, Silver Horse 450 mAh, and similar).
Charge leads push-fit from underneath and are held in place with a cover plate, so contact stays reliable lap after lap. The solid aluminium body also makes the cradle a good fit inside a LiPo heater bag when you want more even pack temperature during charging.
Note: Recent batches ship solid black with the DAS Speed logo (no hex pattern). Charging cables are not included — use your existing Reflex, Silver Horse Quick Draw, or other 24 mm lead set.
