B5
 

Anybody got the B5 yet...? What is the kit like and does it handle better than the B4...?

There are a few at York. Ask Ben Jemison.
Looks a decent kit to be fair, if I was in the market for another rear motor, I'd pick one up. B5M will be good.

I'm not long finished building one, it's my first AE buggy and I was impressed with everything about it. For the money you can't go wrong. I've yet to run mines but a friend ran his on Wednesday night and said it was good, no issues whatsoever :)

My B5
 

Just finished mine off and I must say it builds very well indeed :thumbsup: no trimming or shimming of parts anymore and it has been improved in all area's. Can't wait for the B5m to come out as that should be a big step up from the C4.2 in terms of build quality.

Only parts added (apart from stainless screws and some blue nuts :D) are the J Concepts Fin turnbuckles and some alloy hex's. Only other addition I will add is the alloy front hinge pin brace.

Excuse the shell it's only a temporary one until I can get one pro painted....:)

Nice to hear about the quality....have to say , it does look good...you just need the carbon battery brace..!

Yes I know....:lol: the Associated one is a bit pricy at £24.95 but I know Rudebits are now doing one at £14.95....tempted :thumbsup:

Where did you get the stainless screw set...? I guess it will have to be metric now and the current Associated sets won't be right.... Just planning ahead for my B5M..:)

I use www.modelfixings.co.uk for mine but had some left over from RPCracing from when I had a Durango.
