What would I like to change about the B4/T4?
  • Bearings in front knuckles instead of wheels
  • Quick change front and rear wheels (no more pins!)
  • Outdrives with pin cushions (stock outdrives and pins wear out too fast). Heck, why not plastic telescoping CVD's!
  • Shocks like the RB5 (seals load from the bottom)
  • Aluminum front bulkhead, especially for the T4
  • Gear cover that seals better (3-point mounting?)
  • Better accommodations for brushless systems (motor mounting/gearing and ESC mounting on the B4)
  • Improved rear wing mount (two point shock tower mount so it doesn't keep coming loose)
  • Improved body mounting for B4 (single front mount kills bodies fast)
  • Front and rear wheels that run true and don't crack!!! PLEASE!!!!
  • Re-design battery tray/mounting to be more LiPo friendly
  • Offer softer spring set to help tune when using a lighter LiPo
  • Include battery strap thumb screws in standard kit
  • Metric fasteners
  • Symmetrical left/right arms
  • Pre-built turnbuckles
