Talking B-Max2 MR Carbon parts

As most Yokomo drivers noticed in the Yokomo forums, i've made some carbon parts for the B-Max2: chassis and both front and rear tower.

This stiffens up the front and rear and, in comparison with the alu and plastic chassis, adds a bit more flex to the chassis. It's a nice tuning option.

Currently in testing phase I expect to have them final soon.

Front tower:


Rear tower:


Carbon chassis:

I will also write the updates here.

Thanks both.

I will update it here and will send you both a PM when they are available.

I modified some parts and are going to test tonight, curious if the modification make them a little bit better.

Modifications made it a little bit better. I ran on a tight indoor track and had a little bit more flex in the chassis. Which now, in my opinion, is a great tuning option for using if you would like something that's in between the plastic and Alu chassis.

Release date, as for now, should be around mid-November. I hope earlier to be honest.

I have arranged production. First batch is pretty small, but enough for most people who already declared their interest.

Prices are available soon, also for re-sellers (e.g. shops).
