Its a blend of T2 and RC10 buggy parts. The chassis is shortened a little.R6cowboy wrote: ↑Wed Mar 02, 2022 5:15 pmWhat exactly is or what makes a B1.5?Frankentruck wrote: ↑Wed Mar 02, 2022 4:29 pm I got what will become an RC10 B1.5 sometime in the future.

Some use a traditional buggy front, some use the truck front and RPM style arms.
Always looking for new and interesting ways to waste money.

Re: So what did you get in the post today ???
It is also the theoretical missing link between the B1 and B2. The B2 went directly to a molded composite chassis whereas the T2 utilized a re-designed aluminum tub. Since the B1 and T1 both utilized the same basic aluminum tub, the B1.5 answers the T2 tub in buggy form. This is what I have learned here. Thank you RC10Talk.
Hope you're doin' something fun.

It is just about 50% more than a B1. Not quite a B2 though.

I build RCs like people would have done back in the '90s ..................................... if they had 3D printers.

Re: So what did you get in the post today ???
Quite helpful indeed. Thanks fellas. Never realized the B2 and T2 had different chassis, always thought they both used the redesigned aluminum tub. Shows how much attention I've put into the B2/T2.

That's the first thread I started checking out when I did a search. Need to continue.Frankentruck wrote: ↑Wed Mar 02, 2022 5:45 pm This is the guide I'm going to mostly use:

That's the go-to answer I was hoping it was, but common sense told me there had to be more to it

Yes, it has had a rough life. I'll be sure to give it some well deserved attention. A little nip here, a tuck there, replacement limbs...

Re: So what did you get in the post today ???
Much needed roll bar cups & Futaba R203GF receiver for the on-road T4 (almost complete).
And finally made up my mind between Hobbywing Max10 vs Castle SW4. Recently seen some info of folks who had both systems in their personal rigs. The one common factor was Hobbywing system being slightly favored. It's home will be in the T4.3, but not before a Reedy 3300kv system vs H.W. 4000kv system comparo.
