C4.2

C4.2

Are they bringing out a new kit with the longer chassis then?

[Belsten]

Its already out, the longer chassis that is

[tyreman]

My guess is they will be bringing out a complete car, which is something that was mentioned before.

C4.2

😃 Lets hope soon

[Moose]

thats the komet rc gear box isn't it ? Afaik komet has nothing to do with centro.

[wezzer]

no! its the new centro gear box casing.
details to be released soon.
:thumbsup:

[Burty248]

Whats the second part for? Is it to mount the case to the rear tower or is there going to be a new rear tower?

I also notice a build up of intrest in the Centro on rc tech at the moment, perhaps the new (c4.2 if there is one) will be released more globally?

just speculating

[RDG 40]

With cubed release soon wonder if c4.2 will be closely followed?

My assumption is that the second part is part of a new rear shock tower and there are carbon fibre extensions attached to it to hang the shocks off... but I could be wrong.

the new tower setup looks very... finished, doesnt it take a lot of effort to create the moulds for parts like this?

More: The chassis has ben modified aswell, looks like the gear case slots into the chassis like the b4 used to slot into the rear t plate and there is aslo a weird aragement of screws from the new gear case.

These new parts make me very excited. :thumbsup:

[RDG 40]

That looks really good im liking that alot better lookin than c4.1

Good job that

Sorry I missed it on the day - they use Yardy as he's like a stealthy warrior. I just noticed the chassis in that crash and went from there. Don't have any clearer shots sadly.

Screws at the rear, four for gearbox, four for suspension blocks and two for rear bulkhead.

Not a fan of the c4.1 looks Wez - but this looks like a vast improvement - like a REAL production car.

[wezzer]

no miCk this wont fit the C4 chassis, its completly new for the C4.2.
I agree Jimmy, the C4 was built for a purpose, function over form a little maybe :thumbsup: the C4.2 will be nicely finished and improve on performance over the C4.1 !

What handling charateristics does this have over the c4.1 gearbox?

[coleman758]

Its most likely not ~£45 as its moulded not milled.

Not sure the box will effect the handling much?
