As it says whos broke what so far.
As some of you might have guessed so far the time has come and i had a boo boo!! wit mine. only broke a wishbone, hing pin, and snapped the top off the shock :P has anyone have a shock snap before(just under the top screw on the cap) or is it something with the new design |

i saw quite a few break at the MK GP a couple of weeks ago & they pretty much all did wishbones & shock caps!
they just broke the mounting lug off the plastic cap, you must have just been unlucky to break the shock body ![]()

its more a flaw with the driving if you're hitting things hard enough to rip the caps off the shocks
![]() i don't think there's anything fundamentally wrong with the design ![]()

I've seen BJ4's snap the top off the front shock when the wishbones gone
![]() Just think how much force is put into the shock cap when the wishbone goes, its probably the thing holding that corner on the most at that point. Things break ![]() There are some B44 spares in the for sale section ![]() G

/Points at G ![]() I've seen a few B44's break the rear topdeck where the camber link mounts, but other than that normal stuff you might break. |

That rear top deck looks like it will be popular seeing how many have broke. Why does the rear top deck break

the ball stud hole is too close to the edge of the top deck, so it is very weak
i think thats why anyway ![]() hth |

Associated have mentioned on RC Tech forums that they are looking to release a better version of the top deck which should be stronger.
I had a 501X prior to the B44 and that originally had problems with the rear alloy camber link support breaking and Tamiya then released a reinforced one. Every new car has its bugs but I am sure that Associated will iron them out with updates. |

for a b4 you can get a wide bumper im wondering if it would fit a b44 to protect from arm and shocks?

Big bumpers are for people who bat the wrong way.
