Default C4.2

On AE site now: http://www.teamassociated.com/C4.2/



No body shown, and carbon side braces still an option. They didn't stop the old one from bending... I hope they have used a better grade of alloy for the chassis.

Well spotted Neal....looks interesting but it is rather surprising that they didn't take the opportunity to redesign the chassis, especially as they seem to have done the gearbox, rear hinge pins,battery layout etc.

The material used for the C4.2 is much harder then the original C4.1 chassis.
It is also wider towards the front end

But I'm sure people will still bend it if they crash hard enough...

Does anyone know if the recently released C4.1 +8mm chassis is the same as the one in this C4.2 conversion kit?

they aren't the same no. the C4.2 is 9mm longer than the original C4.1 chassis design as well as being tweaked along the way

..And here I am with my usual question:
Will the C4.1 Bul Dog body fit the C.2 also?
Will the undertray fit, maybe after some trimming at the back?

hi
no, the layout has changed on the chassis width so in short it wont directly fit!
it may be made to fit with some trimming but as this is a completly new conversion kit its having its own specific body.

Greetings from Canada!

Really excited about getting this C4.2 conversion kit, however I'm really not a fan of the cab-forward body styles and since I'm only running on small indoor carpet tracks, any aerodynamic advantages are moot. Is there somewhere I can order online the original "cab-rearward" body for the C4.1?

Many Thanks!

Mick

That's a good thing though. The old body looked horrible!
