Have to say this looks very well put together.

I bet the screws along the centreline attach to a longitudinal chassis stiffener. By removing screws, you should be able to increase flex for slippery tracks.

I agree...really hope there is a ball diff option...or the old/previous ball diffs still fit!
Be interested to see how it deals with bending/twisting down the length of the car without a top deck...it must keep the transmission in line somehow! Does look nice to me though...I want!!!

Put my deposit down. It looks really good and better equipped than I thought.
I hope it's not delayed otherwise I'll have no 4wd for the 2nd round of Worksop. |

B max 4iii flex control method?
What's others take on this -
Central shaft seems to have a spring in the extra piece near the spur gear Which is presumably allowing for flex during landings, to keep drivetrain together (not dual motor placement?) Front top brace over steering housing at the front of the chassis seems wide and made out of alloy/metal- presumable to control sideway flex. Lower center of gravity as Main metal chassis has side plastic add on, rather than over the top like a xb4 and this metal is 'short' to allow the diff housing to be lower at each end Considering the above, if I've assumed correctly (and the fact most xb4 have benefited from the full length top plate retro added) do you think the diffs fixed to the metal chassis on just one side combined with no top plate is likely to be problematic? |

The only spring I see is for the slipper adjustment.
The car will be spot in. Yokomo don't build a bad car.

I had the XB4 full top deck, but snapped it in between the motor mount and rear slipper bearing mount. I guess the chassis flexed a bit too much on an impact at the oople race last month. A bit of dremmel work allowed me to use the rear brace piece along with the original kit top brace.

B max 4 no top plate
Thanks Neil, understood now.
(thought the back bulk head braces were for lipo retention as deck is sloping in-wards, didn't know like this in 1:8) The detailing and build looks very nice indeed, see why you like it. I would be very interested in your opinion once its out and been driven |

look like the are creating an I beam in the spine which much stiffer and stronger shape than a flat top deck
|

Looks like it could be together with the braces.

To me, it looks just like an 1/8 buggy setup. Genius!

Don't know how it goes, never seen one in the flesh and I don't care. Looks like they've put a lot of thought into the design.
I've put my pre order in. |

Not impressed Yokomo have changed the delivery date on the week it's due. Surely Yokomo Europe knew of the delay beforehand. Gutted it looks like I'm racing a borrowed car for the 2nd round of Worksop because I've just sold my 410 based on the original delivery date. Tut tut
