IIRC kyle, didnt u say the 'webbing' or reinforcement ribs if u will at the front is different. perhaps its not as strong

i've sadly watched him break these guys and its not on him and i have chassis that are 3-4yrs old and no issues. he has now since built up his cars with old chassis (that he also got off me or in trade) to see if that remedies the problem

my 4.1 is coming and i prolly will also tear it down and put it on an old plate til this is resolved.

the guy is good, not some club chuck tryin this lil buggy thing while not floggin a clumsy 8th scale. he's in the show every wk indoors and at outdoor track is in with a shout for the win each wk.

I know that the RTR 4.1 is a scaled down version of the team car but why doesn't it come with the new shocks? Is it a cost thing? Just curious as I was looking to get one as a cheaper way of getting a 4.1

That's exactly why it doesn't come with the new shocks. Its not a scaled down version but just a cheaper one without the hop-ups.

I figured that Just sucks that it comes with the old shocks

What size mod motors are people running in FT B4.1's? And what gearing? Thanks.

Does anyone have a B4.1 Design template of the new body? Thanks!

Clint just get the B4.1 FT kit. You are just going to upgrade the RTR kit and end up spending a ton more money.

The FT has to have something to differentiate it from the RTR. That difference is the ball diff, V2 factory shocks, and B44 alum ear hubs. All of which you will want.

8.5T 81 22 gearing

Question!!

My FT B4.1 has a bad on power steering issue coming onto the straight. Say I coming off a right hander onto the straight and start putting power down my car always wants to pull left into the wall. Makes it very difficult to get down the straight cleanly.

Would this be minimized if I went to a 0* toe block? Common sense tells me with the weight being on the outside rear the toe is pushing the back of the car inward rotating the car left. Kind like rear steering because of the added toe.

yea i experienced that with .5 toe blocks when i went to the .0 i noticed it went away however my corner went to crap lol

I fugured that. I was hoping to go the cheaper route and take the hop up stuff off of my B4. The shocks are the only thing holding me back. Off road is fun but I ran into another issue/problem today.........I WANT A WHEELER NOW TOO

Have you guys been happy with the V2 shocks? I'm getting new ones for my rtr and wondering if i should get the V2 or the the Kyosho shocks.

Extremely happy with the V2's. Done one refresh of the oil and cleaned all the parts. Everything is still as new after a month or racing/practice weekly.

I love mine, and honestly filling Kyo shocks makes a big mess compared to using the bleeder screw on the V2 caps.
