RB5 SP2
 

Hi,i was just wondering,iv been looking into trying the RB5 SP2,all the shop pics have the car fitted with cells,as these havent been used for a few years in top leavel racing i was just wondering if something new will be coming,

there may be an updated car in the works but nothing has been presented. the car fits lipos with no problem. and is destroying the competition all over the world. NiMah don't let a picture deter you.

I have this car and confirm that Lipos are not a problem. My Bionic 5000mAh 40c fill the battery compartment so that there is no room to use the weight distribution element of moving the battery back or forward an inch, but other than that you would think the battery tray was made for Lipo, it fits perfect.

thanks chaps:thumbsup:the cells being fitted was just a ref to the age of the car and if there was a new one on the horizon:wubi didnt want to go and spend what will be a big chunk for a new one to come out:cry:

Ah I get you now.... :thumbsup:

I know what you are saying, there is nothing more frustrating than something being out of date as soon as you buy it!!

There is no "NEW" car planned but I would be very suprised if there isn't an update or 2 after the worlds.

Based on previous experience they will be offered for a limited period as a conversion set then as individual bits followed a fair distance down the line by them being included in a new "kit" (SP3 probably).

I would have no concernd buying an RB5-SP2 kit today, in fact I very recently did!

thanks Rodger,in that case you can buy me one:thumbsup:
