Anybody run the Novak GTB 7.5 Velociti combo in a T4?
Just wondering if it will be enough...I'm currently running pretty mellow 14 and 15 turn brushed motors and want just a little more power than what they provide. Don't want crazy amounts of power because the tracks I race at are outdoors, usually very dry, and rough and rutted from all the nitro cars crashing, so there's not an abundance of traction....

if you get the Illuzion body for the B4 with scoops it will have enough room for your fan and you can cut out the scoops for venting.

Works great !
The airduct & extra space helps keep the ESC cooler...

Alright guys. I am a 1/8 buggy racer, but my local track is talking about building a indoor offroad for the winter. What is the best 2wd electric buggy? I know of course the B4 and what does losi have and how do they compare? Also is there a new version of the B4 coming out?

wait for the XXX-CR to come out and then decide on which one... Apparently, the CR fixes the steering problem with the bk2s, and if this is true, it might just dominate...

How do you guys build your shocks. I'm having a hard time getting the shock to have the correct rebound and not have air in it. Going by the book leaves way too much oil in the shock.

There will normaly be some air left in the shocks. It's just assumed that the air will settle at the top and allow the shock to perform properly.

Does anyone know why AE has chosen to stay with this design for so long? What are the benefits to this versus the bladder shocks which seem to be a lot easier to build and build consistently.

I personally drill 1/16" hole in the top at an angle like the yok caps. Then find a small phillips screw and screw in the hole. You've just made your own trouble free easy to bleed, bleeder tops. I find the screws in a package in the shelf building section at the hardware. Smallest ones you can find. Won't work with aluminum tops.
