Default B4.1 Worlds Longer Chassis

Hi All,

Confused.com

Worlds B4, is it a lengthened B4.1 chassis or a shortened T4 chassis, or a mix of the two?

How I understand it is they cut a piece out of a T4 chassis.It must be the older chassis moulding because it has the round mark in the bottom.

So who's gong to rush out and get a T4 chassis and get cutting?!

Rich Lowes car looked a very neat cut and shut, pics are on oople worlds report

Seems funny, Losi 22 is getting shorter, B4.1 is getting longer!

So now they are both very similar length, B4 made longer by 5mm (IIRC) and 22 being shortend by 5mm (up to 10mm) and there was 10-15mm between them to start with

The chassis' used by the team in Finland are shortened T4 chassis.
Some of the non-factory British team had Paul Worsley do the mod for them so they would be running the same car the works team had decided on after the warm-up. Definately set-up for the meeting seeing as both Proline and JConcepts had adapted their shells to fit.

As I understand it, it's not something that has been run in the UK and is a 'dirt spec'. Seeing as the Losi car is already long and Kyosho seem to have lengthened their chassis too, it's clearly working on dirt.
Although Matsukura TQ'd a round with the standard chassis as well...

Absolutely no idea if AE plan on doing this mid length chassis as a production part yet.
