Stopped using them?

What about the arms?

are there any plans or rumors for a new RC10 car coming out this year?

Wouldnt surprise me to see a new platform given how long the B4 has been around but there isnt much incentive to change anything when you're the World Champ.

When using the front hex adapters how are you guys spacing them? Is it two axle shims in the front like the rear too?

i just run one washer in the front and two in the rear,they are so thin you won't know the difference between one or two,i just put one on so the heck isn't slammed on the bearing

I'm sure they is something they are working on and if it is us so cal people will see it at west coast,but for now no need for a new one as the b4.1 is still kicking and winning races!

I'm not running any with the JConcepts adapters up front or with the Proline units out back.

Do think the new RC10 will reclaim the metal chassis? Like Gold Pan #2?

I hope not..idk why everyone thinks the aluminum chassis is so much better...

Tha carbon arms are used in high grip / high temp conditions, but plastic arms are used most of the time. If you look at the setup sheets on r10.com you can get an idea of when the team have been using them.

if you liked the brown / green setup, start with orange / white. Based on measuring actual spring rate, these are the closest and I found give a simialr handling balance but ride the bumps better.

Do orange/white

If it pushes go Yellow in the rear
If you need more steering go red up front

I run red/Yellow

The B4 as most of us are running it is dramatically underweight because it was originally designed to be run with nickel batteries. So, we have to add ballast. Guess what? That ballast is above the chassis, like it or not. An aluminum chassis is the best way to increase weight where weight should be; as low as possible and as close to center as possible. ThunderbirdJunkie thinks, however, the car should be built more like a GT2 or XXX-NT (or B2/3, for that matter), with a separate front clip with the kickup built into it, rather than the DEX210 or 22 that has the kickup built into the chassis. It makes the chassis more susceptible to bending. Ask ThunderbirdJunkie's old GT about that

Don't believe the hype. I drove one. Still no desire to buy one. I think the nitro scene around here is full of basher hacks for the most part. What you need to do, Brent, is go race some other tracks!

i am glad to see some thinks like i do on the weight of the b4.1 on what battery was it was designed around befor lipos, the car needs more weight in it to handle good, i has 2.5ounces of lead in my buggy, 1 in rear 1.5 on the servo, handle for me just fine,

make yourself an al chassis and use the 22 body :P
