RC10B4.1 FT/WC
I guess I will try and show off my wiring.
Almost done besides I need to solder on some black motor wires.
Although, I am going to keep the red transponder wires, and the red positive batt. plug.

As other have Already mentioned I vote try the Hobbyking ESC and Turnigy Trakstar motor. I run both in 17.5 blinky at the track and am yet to loose this season. Motors are basically copies of the Reedy Sonic and the Esc is a copy of the Hobbywing Xerun Esc.
Only downside is that neither are legal for big races but for someone like me who generally is only looking to race at my club it's perfect and can't be beaten for price. Around $80 posted to your door depending where you are realistically is cheap as it will get. And everyone I know running the Trakstar motors have nothing but good things to say about them.

you said you run both in 17.5 blinky but you send a link for 7.5T motor?
I am new in the hobby, (about a year) always thought – if the number in the motor is lower 5.5 < 6.5 than the motor is stronger…
Am I right?
Does the esc and the motor you send are compatible?

ok so i have a b4.1 with a t4 chasis. its nickname is the limo. Although i am getting it closer to the way i want it i still cant get any steering out of it. it seems like it just pushed around the corners. I have added weight up front and everything and i still cant get it to do anything put push around the corners. I am pretty new to the buggy. i have owned it for about 2 months now. I am just trying to get some input here.

I have a original b4 ft and it is box stock in its set up. I have recently got a worlds kit and am having a hard time getting it to handle as good as my old one. I know there is many changes between these 2kits. I have not been able to find what degree hubs were on the first b4. The worlds kit has the aluminum hubs that are 0.0 etched into them so I guess all the toe in is being added at the toe/anti squat block on the front of the rear arms. What was the set up for the rear on the first b4 ft kits? The set up sheets from AE don't reference any rear hub options like the b4.1 sheets. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
