|
Nice revisions defo on shopping list

3 diffs. Cool. New fashion. :thumbsup:
|
b44.3
A couple of arms and probably a leg:D
|
I expected a bigger facelift but will still give it a go as they have addressed what looks like the top modifications made to the b44.2
Its displaying b44.2 parts so looks imperiel. |
Seems to have some bits off previous models too which will be a plus!!
|
Says the gear diff are backwards compatable with the ball diffs so looks like you can upgrade your 44.2

I guess maybe the new V2 BB shocks as on the B5 are metric? |
Waited a long time for this? It does not match my B5`s. Going with HB instead.
|
Looks alot like the bmax 4 III in a few ways
Looks ace |
B44.D413?! :lol:
|
B44.3
Looks like they have stuck with the same shitty wishbones and front brace , thought they would of beefed them up a bit like the B5 .

If so much stuff from the 44.2 is (backwards) compatible, don't expect the 44.3 to be metric. A bit disappointing perhaps, but I guess that means AE think simply a metric B44 won't be good enough for their customers :) Do keep in mind: Even these extensive updates to the platform are much cheaper than releasing a new one, so it's better to properly think through what it should be like before releasing it - if not you'll be losing customers to bad design choices or construction flaws, not to mention you have to invest in updates to fix the problems.

Shut up take my money :)

Well it is definitely a .3 rather than a completely new car but the alloy chassis and geared diffs in the kit are obviously a plus point for many when they are comparing to other brands.
My view will depend a bit where they try and price it. B44s have always been pitched at the lower end of the spectrum compared to say yokomo and kyosho and I always felt you were buying a product that had its slight issues such as still being imperial and slightly suspect build quality in a couple of areas but it was a bit cheaper so you could forgive it. If they try and launch these at £400 then I think they are going to struggle. I like it. Rob |
imperial screws aren't an 'issue'...

Apparently they have improved the strength of the wishbones by adding material. No new part number but a running change.
It is not as beefed up as a B5 and it still have thin shock towers so I am not worried about my driving but I am about others. |
geared diffs and a central diff
seems all they have done is take the D413 and the Bmax4 III and whack as many features from those on to the existing platform |
