For the B4.2 use the middle ones, the 5.

BigSki15 I had problems in the past with Futaba Twitch, so I went with the Airtronics 94770 on the B4.2, and it has been flawless. Allot of people like the Futabas as well, its all up to what you want, and are willing to spend.

Looks awesome!! What are the plans for the chassis, carbon fiber, aluminum or something else? I'm pretty excited to drive a mid motor buggy, I picked up a X-Factory conversion (the price was right) for m B4.1 but I wasn't impressed with the molded chassis it came with nor did I care for the body that need to be run with the x Factory chassis.
Keep us posted on your progress I am interested to see the outcome.

+1

I have the 451 and it's a sweet servo. Quiet, fast, precise and strong.

I run the 451 in my 4.2 and 44.2. Ideal specs and super smooth. Anything reputable in .10 range is perfect in my opinion.

I ran my b4 for the first time in months. I was giving the 22 a try. The b4 felt really connected. I spent most of the time getting my rhythm down on the track. I pretty much race at this track once a layout change or 4-5 times a year. Going from low bite outdoor I cant really see my car to nice indoor racing it quite the change. BTW, my car is that color for night racing at my outdoor track. most people are white or yellow and it was confusing. The most people give me crap about the pepto bismol color, the more i like it, lol.

Looked like you were dialed in, that track looks nice, I wish we had more tracks like that in my area, TRCR is the closest indoor track, but its 35 miles away
