Hope AE/JC/someone will come up with an undertray, manual shows only a protective sheet for now. My B44.1 undertray is so beaten up that I wouldn't dare to run with anything thinner than that.
Tape is way cleaner looking and cheaper than under trays therefor can be replaced more often so you don't have a ghetto snap tray on the bottom of your five diamond ride!
VTS Slipper - maybe a little overkill, the B44.1 slipper works perfect even on very high traction surfaces
The slipper has always been a finickey to get perfect at the begining and end of a run. Many people have been looking for a better solution for a long time.
BB's - nice to have, although this would mean buying new sets of springs
Narrower chassis - I like it
Quick release - now I might even balance the packs when charging between races :)
Don't complain about buying springs they are a quarter of the price of Kyoshos!!!!!!!
I was really wishing for gear diffs and an aluminium chassis (even as an option), but maybe we'll get that on the B45 :).
There is a reason it does not come with gear diffs and an aluminum chassis!

Oh, and when I was just about to say that I can't find any flaw to it: what's with the half-conversion to 12mm hex, and *still* standard hardware? Hope the old wheels will still fit, with the appropriate spacers on the axles.
Nobody makes a front wheel with a 12mm hex the offset the B44 needs and everyone already running the B44 would have to buy all new front wheels and tires and people would be complaining about that! There is nothing wrong with the front hex they have been using for years. This is not a completely new car and would have to be completely re-engineered to accept metric hardware the correct way.

For example, any machined metal parts, IE motor mount. Would be a new piece with a new part number. Why go through the extra cost, that the consumer will recive. when some thing liek that does not have to be changed. and the customer saves.

Undertrays were used in the first one, Notice all the opening for the motor, and NIMH batteries. Once to lip. smaller lighter batter, coudl go a little higher. no big holes in tray, so the tape works well on a flat no hole surface.
