That really looks nice.

What shock oils are you using and what surface are you running on

I'm basically driving on astro here in Norway. We have a lot of good astrotracks here now;-)

I drive with the white pistons/ 2#1.4mm holes front and the black 2#1.3mm rear and uses Losi oil 35-40 front and 25-30 rear.

I have a lot of bx-parts in stock, if I didn't-I would have bought yours, no doubt! :-)
I also have the Durango Dex410, but I drive the bx-ho ho;-) -It's so much smoother!

Nice work there Arne!

Razer! hohohoho go on!!

[JohnM]

Looks nice dude, really need to give mine a good rebuild one day.I would take the little rear gear box cover off though, I found it make the diff stayed cleaner for longer without the rear covered, lets the dirt pass straight through.

[superdez]

Looks good. Is it possible to have some pictures of the modified layshaft pulley out of the car?

Thanks!

I see what you mean.

Since I drive on the astro, I never have any problem with dirt arround the diff-even if it's rubber or sand in the astrotracks.

[Arnefles]

Interesting:P

Yes man, very interesting! Bring it to Lørenskog;-)

[Arnefles]

The stablizersystem in the rear looks a bit advansed but actually it makes it more easy to change the belt and the diff.

It's less screws to remove!

I bought some carbon on hobbyking and dremel the top of the rear.

Now I can easly adjust the inner link up and down, just to remove or put in one of the carbonplates. It's ony 4 screws. :-)

Some pic when I made it. I used some plastic between the pulleys.

I have tighten it, I have no need of the one-way system. But I can of course loosen it if I need:-)

[canon67]

Interesting:P

Pics are gone sorry for the delay bud I was out of town for buisiness.

Den.

[Naushad]

Thanks Denis... I will let you know.

I'm making electric adjustments to the bx I have now. I also need to fiddle with the shocks.

I'm sure I'll get cracking on the bx you've sent me soon enough!

Naushad

[Bastos]

Hello,

Have you done some adjustments or specific tooling to fit the Team C dogbones in front and rear ?

Front cvd axl: Team C. T04025
Rear Cvd axl: Team C. T02058

And, using Bmax4 arms...does it change the wheels base or/and width?

Lower arms: B-max BM-008R/BM-008F

Bastos

[canon67]

Using the Bmax front arms did not change the wheel base or whidth just the shock location in the bottom of the arm.

Den. :thumbsup:

Only thing I had to do was a little (very little!) dremling inside the rear hub.
Everything else fitted right on!

In about 3 weeks I will try to fit the B-max2 rear axles in the rear, maybe the fits right on:)

[Arnefles]

The B-max2 axles did not fit right on, only the wheel axl part fit.

So I drive the Team c part #T04027 bone with the Yokomo B-max2 #B2-010RA, they fits perfect together:-)

Naushad

Got any pic of your bx yet? :-)

[Naushad]

Yeah I will get some sorted out soon...no problem!

Nothing special about the setup...more or less
stock!

Just finished refitting electrics and new tyres.

[Arnefles]

[QUOTE=Arnefles;652603]The B-max2 axles did not fit right on, only the wheel axl part fit.

So I drive the Team c part #T04027/TU0233 bone with the Yokomo B-max2 #B2-010RA, they fits perfect together but the car gets a bit wide so you have to put a shim on the inside of the hub.

But now I tryed the B-max4 axl (BM-010RAC) and it fits even better, and now you also can use the Losi 22 rims with a hex if you want-it fits very well :-)

In the end: Team C #TU0233 + Yokomo BM-010RAC :-)

[Bastos]

In pictures…That's mine…

There is a long time I have to do it…re-furbushing my BX with my personal « touch »…

We can not see it but Motor and batteries are forward about 7 mm…chassis, top deck ( Thx Fiberlite ) and belts ( Thx BANDO ) have change for more steering and traction.
http://img137.imageshack.us/img137/7785/img0661j.jpg (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/137/img0661j.jpg/)

Sometime we are « fashion victim »…but sometime it is really necessary…BX « Bigbored »
http://img840.imageshack.us/img840/1411/img0663ir.jpg (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/840/img0663ir.jpg/)

Use of « BX World » camber link support with additional point location to make the camber link longer to get more « front traction » and steering at low speed.
http://img407.imageshack.us/img407/5843/img0669xj.jpg (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/407/img0669xj.jpg/)

Speedo ( RS Pro ) and receiver on a same side ( for well balance R/L ) on carbon plate…the access to pinion is more complicated…so…leave two screws and you have a complete access to adjust the pinion & spur .
http://img221.imageshack.us/img221/5765/img0670.jpg (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/221/img0670.jpg/)

As the Lipo are lighter…two brass plate ( 1,5 mm thickness ) are inserted under each for the circonstancy => 50gr more for each saddle.
http://img209.imageshack.us/img209/1655/img0673b.jpg (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/209/img0673b.jpg/)

Rear Shock support « Special Bradders » with intermediate point location to adjust the rear grip perfectly…

[Naushad]

Looks great!! The big bore suit it. I hope it handles well!

Your shock towers look moulded together. How did you achieve that?

[Bastos]

Just cyanocrilate on the edge. Apply multilayers of cyano to get this result...but between each layer of cyano...sand the edge ( 400-600 ) ...at the end you've got something "round" like the photos.
The advantage is, when you scratch the edge of your towers, you can sand it again and repair it without damaging the carbon.

[Arnefles]

The car look's great, nice finish!

I noticed you moved your batteries...

How much weight did you put on, anything between the batteries or just arround?

[Arnefles]

I did also try the big bore from the B-max, but I think my car handles better over here with the orginal shocks.

But I didn't do to much research... ;-)

[Bastos]

I put 50gr but under each saddle

[Eraser]

My Special BX. Hope to get tested it soon:woot:

[Naushad]

Hey Andreas!!!

How are you doing man!

So moving to the Bx...what's prompted this?

Nice car. Like the carbon effect diff cover!

Are those yokomo big bores? Why have you used a plastic front shock tower?

What electric setup are you using?

[Arnefles]

Interesting... Never seen b-max shocktower on the bx!

[Bastos]

Hello guys :)

I think that the big bore use by Eraser are from "Team C or Ansmann"...to be confirm
For the front shock tower...it's a nice choice against "carbon" breakage...

Cheers
Bastos

[Reo]

you should turn around those screws on front shock.. but intersting to see if that tower is ok.

i've received my MR4 Bx yesterday, i think i'll post some pics in a few days

[SHY]

Good job Bastos! That car looks really Langlet'ified! :thumbsup:

[Eraser]

Hi

Yes, the Big Bores are from Team C., got no Yokomo Big Bores:(.
-Front Arms are HB D4
-B-Max front Shock towers are much cheaper as the carbon ones
-Special rear design...

I have also an Yokomo MR4-BX like new and a Worlds Edition:drool:


@Naushad......My Race Car is still the ACADEMY SB-V3:thumbsup:

[Reo]

that rear mod is done several years ago by other. i did it last year. nice to have option to change tracktion @ rear. i have my own link mod rear, + full bmax4 rear arms and hub, bmax4 front arms. i can post some pics later tonight.

Does the HB-arms fit right on, and did it change the lenght or width on the car, or the points for the shocks?

[JohnM]

Why would you want D4 arms on a Bx? they're no way close to being as strong as the Yok ones:confused:

[Reo]

here is mine..

[Arnefles]

Why would you want D4 arms on a Bx? they're no way close to being as strong as the Yok ones:confused:
If you mean me...? I like the b-max arms, they are very flexi and solid!

But allways interested to know what fit's the bx, I also know that the team c tc4 arms fit.

I'll keep the b-max arms of course :-)

[Arnefles]

Very interesting to see so many different bx's, I don't think any other car can have so many different types of the same model...

Love the bx-make it your personal car! :-)

No, not you dude, it was Erazer who said he had HB D4 arms on his, I had a D4 for a time, no way would I want those arms on my BX, they broke in crashes my BX laughed at.

[Bastos]

Just a little video of the MR4Bx of Billy Easton when he was beginning with the BX...He was yet applying the rear MOD...

F2eNAiLJq3E

[Eraser]

the reason was... i got no original arms left:thumbdown:

[Arnefles]

the reason was... i got no original arms left:thumbdown:
Skip the orginals and buy the b-max arms, you just need to drill the holl in the bulkhead bigger. The b-max arms are really good, they are very flexible and they are much cheaper (and better)! :-)

[Reo]

here is mine with shocks @ back.

[Naushad]

I said to Arnefles I would post mine...so here it is!
