updated bmax front arm p/n ?
Does anyone have the part number for the beefed up front arm for the bmax?
it comes with the bmax 09 kit, but I threw the tag out by mistake and its not listed in the manual. |

i think it may be a running change and still uses the same part number as the last ones i got were the newer style

In what ways exactly is this new arm updated?

It has more material around the inner hinger pin (where they always broke) plus a bit more webbing on the insides of the arm.

Thanks for the info Peter.
I was wondering if the composite used was different. I felt there wasn't enough meat in the hingepin area of the arm. When I used some spare BX arms I had, I had to drill out the hingepin hole as the BX uses smaller hingepins. Surprisingly, the BX arms held up better than the original Bmax ones. I am trying to get some Delrin arms machined out. May not need to go through the trouble anymore you think? |

No i think they've probably addressed the problem pretty well there just wasn't enough material on the originals.

Good to know the new arms are sorted out.
Saves me the hassle and money of custom machining |

Front arm
Same ref, same material but more around the hinge pin. it's definitely more resistant than original. the new front arm come in the new factory Kit.
