New B-max4 kit? Is it possible?
 

Hi all, would anybody have any insight into the possibility of Yokomo coming out with a new kit for the B-max4? With the Japans national kit having had such success, and the new Big bores and carbon battery strap out now, I was thinking they might bring out a new kit including these hop-ups...

Anybody have an oppinion on this? Sponsored racers, any inside info about this? Yay/Nay?

I might be buying myself a B-max4 this winter, but would definetly hold out if they will be coming out with a new kit... Cheaper than buying the hop-ups afterwards...

Cheers for any input on this!:thumbsup:

i see one picture in the yokomo stand to the tokyo exhibition of one bmax4 factory team with all option......

Yes, that's the one I'm waiting for, too! :thumbsup:
I wanted to get a DEX410 first, but with no Durango team driver to support me in my club, what's a hobby driver to do... Well, could have been worse!

Do you guys have links to this? Pics?

I can't find anything on the Yokomo site...

Thanks!

Had a quick look on the yokomo web site and found this

Nice! I hope it has more than just the Bigbores onboard! I guess we,ll see! That will definetly be the one I get if I can go through with it. Now how to hide it from the misses...:woot:

:lol:

Here is the pic from yokomo for the thread....

Looks like it has the option front suspension block too, so hopefully it's bling all over!

Who's esc's/motors are they rebadging for their brushless?

Seems to be a trend over there, Tamiya have just rebadged the SXX TC too!

Is it just me or does that look like a new body with a bigger air vent on the side?

I wonder if it will have the Ti screw kit... or at least a hex screw kit...:drool:

Looks like the same body, with a large hole to fit the heat sink from the alu motor mount.

Good information in bad English:

:D

New kit (factory spec) is the same as the 09 spec champ kit (loads of alloy) with the addition of big bores as seen here: http://yokomo.blogspot.com/

Its in stock here: http://www.rc-race-and-drift-japan.c...oducts_id=1800

It doeas also contain the new carbon fiber battery mounts! An additional pair of springs (orange, soft) seems to be included, too :thumbsup:, but unfortunately the front wheel hexes seem to be missing...:thumbdown:

Wow, the hexes are not on the exploded view...:woot: It's either a mistake, or they really did omit them...:confused:

As for the springs, I think it comes with black front (medium) orange rear (soft)... Not a full set, with means ordering more for tuning...:confused:

I really want one of these! Screw everyone else this christmas! Got to get priorities right, new car first!:thumbsup:

It's been confirmed, the kit does not contain the hexes...:thumbdown::thumbdown: Major bummer....

My factory kit just arrived today!! Hope to run it soon!! The big bore shocks are very nice looking!!:thumbsup:

Hey Johan, can you confirm that the only shock springs included with the kit are the black fronts and orange rears? And it's the 87T spur that's included?

Thanks!
