there is not really such a thing as the S44.

its simply a set of option parts for the B44.

the B44 that I will be running has a much more in common with a stock B44 than my S4 did to a BJ4.

the atomic-carbon parts add a different electrics layout and steering assembly, thats all, everything else can be setup like a stock B44, we do have extra mounting holes in the shock positions but we retain all the stock mounting points.

Do you run the AE shocks on the B44-Atomic'd or Losi?

Would the chassis feel much different? I'm sticking to my B44 unless I have ago with one and feel much better wih one.

AE shocks

the chassis would feel very different to a stock B44, a lot more weight forwards. lots of power on steering, it has a high resposnse steering setup too.

if you like steering then you will like the chassis setup.

Some team drivers will be running the Losi shocks There are provisions to run the shocks on the rear of the wishbones like on the S4 aswell, this is how JC ran his at Newbury.
