New front and rear wheels. The front wheel has a new offset and uses wide body type tires. They are also stiffer. The new rear wheel is now interchangeable with other manufacturer’s buggies, allowing spec tires to be mounted.
Inline or trailing front axles. You can use either inline or trailing front axle steering blocks while maintaining correct axle and Ackerman positions.
Most adjustable RC10 ever. You have easy access to all suspension settings. The upper suspension arms have vertical ballstuds front and rear so that you can make fine roll center and camber rise changes.
New 2.6:1 reduction transmission. The B4 uses the same higher torque capacity differential as in the
RC10GT. Entire transmission assembly has been optimized into an
ultra-compact package and is now an integral part of the
chassis/suspension structure.
Double-sided slipper clutch assembly. Higher torque capacity double-sided
slipper assembly. This provides a finer adjustment range and more efficient
slipper operation.
Super-low center of gravity. The motor, battery, body, wing, and even shocks
have much lower mounting positions. This gives the B4 buggy a much lower CG for
higher cornering speeds and more stability for jumping and the bumpy sections.
Longer MIP CVD axles. Longer CVD dog bones and axles have been designed into the
rear suspension to push the B4 out to maximum legal width. The longer CVDs also
increase rear traction. The RTR substitutes rugged steel dogbones.
Optimized front suspension/steering assembly. We designed the new "forward
swept" front suspension in conjunction with the "co-planer" Ackerman steering
geometry. This new suspension design provides maximum front end clearance and
minimum bump-steer while maintaining correct buggy Ackerman settings.
Symmetrical suspension arm design with captured hinge pins. All four suspension
arms are the same length. All of the suspension hinge pins are captured so that
no E-clips are needed.
Impact-absorbing wing mounts. The rear wing has two impact-absorbing mounts that
also support the rear suspension assembly. The wing angle is adjustable.
