B5M Carbon Edition
 
I did this as an experiment to see how light i could get it. I know you guys aren't that much into super light cars but I wanted to show it anyway. The real idea is to make a short chassis version later with alu chassis but in the same design as this for indoor carpet racing. And a B5/B44 hybrid but with a unique twist.
I have got some options on that reduces weight from starters but my cf chassis lowers it by 60-70g depending on what screw are being used.

Is the carbon parts direct copy of the original parts.

Some screw holes are a direct copy of course but for the most part it is all new ones to fit my specs. Multiple battery layout and ease of use is my idea. When running inline a lp servo is required and there is plenty of space left for the esc. I have moved the lipo back 5mm to give space.
The chassis is only 100mm wide so the edges wont interfere in corners.

Simon, i also live in Sweden so that could be arranged.

I can't find it. I did find x factory's new carbon fibre chassis for a b5m.

Hofvander 17-08-2014 04:15 PM

I dont know but I tried searching in the search bar on Fb and found it. Try search for RC10B5 Nation and you will find it.

Edit: My pal typed #b5mlw in the Facebook search bar on his phone and found it so it should work.
