All AE is doing is changeing a few molds of the arms,and diff cases to make it looks a Little different from the BJ4we, and i heard the blue aluminum is now graphite or carbon, There are a few people on differrent boards that saw the car and verified that..

the factory team kit would probably have the blue turnbuckles,blue bulk head,blue & servo mounts.

I'd question that information, no reason to replace parts where strength is needed for a weaker material, which is why it's aluminium in the first place.

so are ae making a buggy to challenge the bj4 or making a budget version ??

or is ally cheaper to get moulded that carbon or whatever they decide to make it from??

could the bj4 actually be the ft version or the other way round??

jus ideas people

when the AE car was seen it was reported that was the only difference between it and a BJ4we, diff case molds were diff, front arm molds looked diff, and the aluminum(most of anyway) parts were all the graphite/plastic composite. i believe the post was on rc10b4.com

Well I was asking around the AE team this weekend at the Bury National - and the guys were coyer than a carp, certainly not 'letting on' about if/when they might run an AE car, or even if one existed. But with the Euros next month in Finnland, I'd think it would be the ideal testing ground in preparation for the Worlds - IF they are going to run an AE car at the worlds that is.
