...And if you pre-orer it now, you can take advantage of the $30.00 "5 ways to save" discount they're offering. Not a bad deal for $294.99 USD

I wonder why they aren't showing an underneath shot with the new chassis? it looks great though - I see they aren't using MIP for the CVD's any more

Has anyone else bought an ae kit since the take over by ttr and noticed slight quality issues with their parts, I bought a 18b it's the first car ive had to spend time filing, triming, spacing bits of the drive train and suspension for it to be free, Which was dissappointing as i really like AE,

It's not a new development, TTR have been moulding parts for AE since the TC3.

Indeed the parts quality is different (lower) on the RC18.
I'm guessing the B4 is the last "real" Associated kit, that is : manufactured in Ca. , USA before the TTR takeover.
The RC18 and the new TC5 use different materials compared to previous AE kits and the biggest tell-tale of all : they're metric !

BTW, there's nothing wrong with parts quality of the TC5 kit : it's suberb ! And it's metric !!!

I was affraid for us racers when TTR took over AE, but as it is now : AE seems to be doing just fine. It's Losi that is going to sh*t since the Horizon takeover. Losi kits used to be excellent quality, but ask anyone who has an LST how parts quality is now.

I totally agree with this statement, I have one. It goes extremely well. The only thing I dont like is the plastic diff outdrives....they melt!

Is the B44 much different to the BJ4?
