First Try Out

The new HARD rear arms feel or perform the same as the carbon version.

Can't notice a significant difference.

They fit great, tight & smooth.

The new rear Hards will make a big improvement for the B44
The carbon arms sway bar studs were in the wrong location for the B44.

My son painted his. Did you paint yours on the outside? Can't tell from the pics but it looks sharp painted on the inside.

Both inside & outside are painted the same. Couldn't get the desired look by painting inside only. Painting both sides will also prevent any clear spots from bad landings (I do those a lot :lol:)

Differences

Could someone tell me the differences (if any) there are between the B4.1(Worlds car with big bores) and a B4.2?? I'm just looking for advice before purchasing a 1/10 2wd buggy to get back into this great hobby! Thanks in advance!!

Ran my 4.2 on our outdoor carpet track and it was a handful. Just being rear motor it had nothing on the mid motors. Not really a suprise but coming from a rb6 mm it was super inconsistent. Although the 3 x 1.4 pistions are dialed!

going to race indoor dirt tommarow with those hard rear arms also! Wish I would have got to try them on the carpet tho

Yea I run them...I'll be honest though and say I haven't done back to backs like Cherry and I suck so I can't really give good feedback anyway. :D

Also the b4.1 has the front bearings in the wheel or rim where the b4.2 has them built in the front hub.

Is the avid centering kit worth getting?

I got it I think it helps you jump flatter then off balanced. But anyway for 28 bucks you cant go wrong, if nothing else it gives you a little more weight in the rear.

It's not because of the motor being off center. Take a look at everything else first. Make sure shocks are the same length, droop is equal and there's nothing binding.

Bet you $10 that solves if the problem.
