Default MRC shell for the B44 & BJ4we

Russian RC company Micro RC (www.microrc.ru), have contacted us to show off their lightweight body and wing set for the Associated B44 and JConcepts BJ4we. The new shell is shown here in prototype form and will be moulded in lightweight 0.5mm polycarbonate.



The body looks to be heavily influenced by the original JConcepts shell - along with smatterings of the Kyosho prototype shells seen at the 2007 Worlds.

MicroRC can be contacted via http://www.microrc.ru or [email protected].

It looks as B-Mag has had something to do with the moulding

It's hideous. Not as hideous as the CAT SX shell but hideous nonetheless.

It really looks like a JConcepts B44 body with some minor changes, like the front window

Before you start slagging him off why don't you guys try and do better? No? didn't think you could.

I think I had a chat with the guy that had something to do with this and he is really cool. If I'm correct he is operating on a very small budget and I happen to think he's done a really good job. I especially like the wing., keep up the good work dude!

JIMMY: is it Demetrie Molishcov?
