Xray XB4 2WD #360500
 

....

from that pic the shell looks odd.


maybe an option to mount the shocks forward or rear of the tower

....

I'm curious whether they have left open the option to put a diff in the front or if they've actually made a more 2WD-like front end (in the case of a 2WD front end: in combination with a motor and shorty at the back would make front mounted rear shocks more logical, right)?

Anyway, I'm glad they called it the XB4 2WD... much like the post mentions, it kind of implies they have plans for a more universal 2WD, which I would love to see :)

with the kick up on the chassis i doubt whether you'd be able to fit a front diff and front centre driveshaft. the top deck and bulkhead would probably be different. i wonder what motor / lipo layout they've used?

shared
 

post says many shared parts with the 4wd, so I expect rear will be similar and front different. Hope its similar to the 4wd, as that's awesome.

Might be tempted if it is. Saddle configuration would also tempt me, if shorty then I would re think. don't want to have to buy more lipos.

either way, I am sure it will be awesome like the 4wd.:thumbsup:

....

I wonder if Xray will make a new version of this car in 2015 ( or even sooner)...

Yes they will :lol:

It's just guessing now, but the quality will be good knowing X-Ray. Don't like the body, but that's something you can work around on. :woot:

Guess the rear will be a lot of the same, front will be different. Maybe some gull-wing like front-arms. More as the Durango has.

I can't believe I'm saying it, but I kinda like the cab forward body on it. Cab forward is here to stay, it took me a long time to like them, but I'm going to get one for my XB4 (4WD).

well the price is out just waiting for pictures and a full spec?

....

Surprised there were no spy shots from eos.

Will be replacing my lazer with an xb4, contemplating replacing the db1 I have, just for some spares commonality. I would imagine this new 2wd front end will carry over to the proper 2wd when it appears.

....

....

is this the DMX body that is also available for the 4wd? or is there another to be released soon??

Very exciting! Bet it'll be very similar to the Kyosho/Rude Bitz DB1/2.

I find the shell kinda cool! And that paint job is just smashing! :thumbsup:

....

It's tomorrow... :D

Any idea as to ETA on the 2WD kits btw?

I don't see why it couldn't at least be like the DB1 with saddles. Maybe even like DB2 with shorty on one side. But my bet is on DB1 style = most like the XB4 4WD layout. Would be great to have a 2- and 4WD car with most parts in common! :thumbsup:
