Well I bought two B4.1 Worlds cars in the last month, both of which came with the T4.1 battery straps and .5 degree hubs instead of the 0 degree hubs. Let's hope AE packs the B4.2 with the right stuff.

The end going into the switch, it pulled out.

Is it safe to just close the circuit and have it turn on when the battery plugs in?

You could open the switch and resolder the wire on....the plastic housing around the metal switch should pry out.

Go back and look at the b4 platform worlds wins. Then come back and tell me how many of them were repeat drivers.

From the manual:
On/Off Switch: unique design, please read! The switch operates as „active low“, this means if you cut-off the
switch the speed-control will always be turned on and not off! The reason is, that in case the switch gets damaged
in a crash and fails, you‘ll still be able to complete your run with no switch!
In case you‘d prefer running without the On/Off switch and want the speed-control to be turned on instantly once
you connect it to a battery, you must remove the switch and not connect the two wires which go to the switch!

Sooo...either fix it or leave the two wires un-connected

Dustin Richards, Mike Truhe and Jared Tebo have pulled down their fair share of wins in the past several years, among others, but you're right about Cav, he won a lot when he raced for Losi.
