Correct. The only parts different are the chassis, transmission, t-piece and battery plate.

Here is the conversion kit for the Madrat/Xpro:

If you want to order one or need spares, Dave Dodd is pretty good at getting hold of them. I know he is also ordering some kits from Ansmann

Front and rear arms, front shock towers, front kickplate top and bottom, front bulkhead, hingepins, front and rear hubs all fit, basically jus the chassis, rear shock tower and rear hinge pin mounts are different, hope that helps..:thumbsup:

Plus the battery brace and transmission housing as said above

Yep, pretty good. Not quite as polished out of the box as the B4 and RB5 but just as quick once up and racing

They're crap, I only use one because I hate winning by more that a lap :p

There's cheap stuff on the market then there's real value for money. This car is the later.
