Drove mine today, was .2 tenths faster after 10 minutes than my centro. Laps were more consistent for this rookie. Jumps predicable and lands good. Got use to Cento so B5M is going to be cool. Had a push on a 180 turn, moved shorty battery to front, helped. Could use a little more steering overall. Squared up and could get onto straight better and mash the gas sooner in 17.5. Did lose a front left side tire, didn't tighten screw on backside holding axle on. Luckily found all the parts. After that no issues. Going to review tuning for on power turning. Seems that I need to slide into turn get off power to turn and get on gas after that. If I stay on gas, pushes. There is one jump at my track that I was in the right spot more with B5 to hit it consistently. Overall good car for me to get better on. Will be trying B5m. Can't wait for more guys to start posting setup changes.

I was thinking of going with a sanwa servo that was 14g less, but with more turning needed, think I am going to stay with AEs 1015.

Thanks! The fluorescent orange looks way better in person, too. It has a much more vibrant hue. You'll love it!

Bingo if the b4's were a hop up item then AE wouldn't have made different (narrow) B5 alloy hexes.

car is dialed. took it today for some club racing with the box stock setup and made it to the A with no problems. just wanted to get a feeler and it sure took me by surprise as to how much more this car is compared to my b4.2, it jumps, lands and steers better. I'll have to mess with some adjustments and I'm sure it will be dialed at any track. Kudos to the engineers for such a great design and workmanship!


Btw no breakage at all lol and I had some rough practice with sc's

Are those wing buttons I see on your car not the regular body pins?
