Cracking build Steve! And the shell looks stunning, that's a very nice car. I've just finished my Mad Rat tonight and will post some pics up soon.

[DCM]

ta fella, will be doing a little testing on the weekend, just bummed that I don't have the right front tyres at the mo

[DaveG28]

Couple of quick questions guys:

1. How do the bleed holes work without screws? Do they just seal as you tighten the top?

2. Found any none kit springs that fit ok?

Looks a nice bit of kit, what's space like under the shell for electrics?

[DCM]

1. the shock bladder seals the hole once the top is tightenned

2. B4 spings fit

[mr. ed]

I have a couple questins about the topshaft and gear:
what diameter is the shaft?
which pitch are the gears?
How many teeth are on the top gear?

I would like to fit this double slipper design into an academy griffin truck I only just bought.

[Spencer Mulcahy]

Anybody know what the internal ratio is or what pinion to run on a 6.5 sintered losi motor cheers

[DCM]

internal ratio is a 2.6:1, same as the B4

[Spencer Mulcahy]

Cheers that makes it simpler.

[DCM]

just run a bigger pinion than a B4 due to the bigger spur.

Theres no doubt its a near on carbon copy of an RB5, is that legal? Using the origional style rear end rather than the new SP, not a bad thing though, i've never been convinced by the worlds rear end on the RB5.

The only down side to the origional RB5 rear end was that it was far to narrow in the box so it will interesting to see how the Pro-X measures up?

Looking good though, an RB5 with green bits rather than blue and £100 cheaper

I find it's not that cheap after all (googled prices...)
RB5 165£
B4FT 175£
B4s 135£
proX 133£

B4s comes with tyres, proX does not, right?

It's the madrat(50£) that is better value (any review of that one around?)

Thanks DCM for this review

I leaning towards getting a Ansman magnum rather than keep waiting edges for the Kyosho RB5T

[stox217]

The kit tyre's with the madrat are same as the one's in the b4 im not 100% on that.
Im shure the pro-x come's with tyre's???

What you got to remember, I have had two B4's and never used the kit tyres, and the front springs, as the kit was built to dirt spec. Personally, I would rather see two sets of wheels in a kit, than wheels and tyres.

[millzy]

on the b4 kit you get the wrong oil wrong tyres wrong springs and if its the ft the wrong pistons for uk tracks- not like you can sell it on

Unless you're starting racing at PDA - Then it becomes perfect

The X-Pro doesn't come with any Tyres.

ok lol

but for all other uk grass and astro tracks its all usless

[chb]

So, even forgetting the tyres, the X-pro is not cheaper than a b4s

Or am I missing something?
