I would love to see a designated rideheight measure spot....something like a little hole in the chassis front and rear that the ride height guage can locate too or into...

The same dimples could be used to set yor left/right balance on a setup board with some balance blocks...

I would like to see the 2 most common rideheights come on a plastic block in the kit...23mm and 24 mm on the block...Not much,but a cool little feature

Less screws of different sizes...The B4.1 is pretty good,but could be better..i use the T Plate screws to hold the rear gearbox and motor guard down...

Lose the small hex heads......to easy to strip...
Metric screws.....Ti for the shock tops...to make up for the increase in screw size and weight.

Consistent anodising in the kits,not different shades...if too hard,just do black or alloy

Hard mounted wing....
Wing mount arms joined with screw.less mount twist then,yet can undo just 1 side still

External droop adjustment....

The blue FT Multitool should be in kit too....

Increase the channel sizing for the servo leads and such going through the battery tray...

Modded U Brace and standard U Brace in Kit....Plastic C tower in kit for rear hubs..

Mod the rear tower,so our motor leads and sensor cable can go under the tower,and either side of the battery strap..
That way,when doing maitenance we can unbolt the rear tower and ubrace without having to unsolder the motor...


Not much,just detail stuff.....what do you guys like to see.....Im not talking bout bling stuff,just the little things that are important,and add up too take a kit from good,to great...
Love the topic you just opened. I think it's time for the next day for AE. Not necceserily a new car. A b4.2 would do it.
That one about the rear tower is cool. I have a-not-so-neat cable job so i can use bullets to remove my motor. It would be great.
I don't care about the screws, but those two on the front bulkhead need to go.
