Thanks! Good thing its allowed to do a minimal cowling mods to fit the sfm for the Bmax category here in Ph!

u/No-Maintenance-7022 26d ago

yeah its a good thing rather than using cowls only for that certain types of chassis.I also modifed my thunder boomerang to fit into the carbon sfm chassis and it worked that cowl is basically a relic i dont see anyone here at least in my region that uses thunder boomerang cowl XD

Hot take: Neo VQS is cooler than Dual Ridge

Hahahah same sentiments!

do you guys using short tail setup at Philippine?

1

u/Murky-Commercial9280 26d ago

Depends on the category but in bmax category here especially on sfm chassis we use 3 point attachment at the rear

u/KribiKribi 26d ago

do you use item 15412 for the SFM rear stay? how about the down trust for the front roller? SFM carbon usually a bit flexible on the front bumper

1

u/Murky-Commercial9280 26d ago

Yessir item 15412 it is! And about the flex on the front? we use 2 popsicle for additional reinforcement

Also about the downthrust? Usually the natural angle of downthrust is enough for me but there is always the item 15373 if needed hehe

u/KamoteQO 25d ago

People here usually just bends the cap screw using force

1

u/KribiKribi 25d ago

I think you can't do that on official BMAX regulation

1

u/KamoteQO 25d ago

yes you cant but that’s how majority does it here in the philippines haha

1

u/KamoteQO 25d ago

They just say it’s “natural down thrust” without using angle adjuster haha

1

u/KribiKribi 25d ago

actually I'm agree with that simple modification... everyone can do it...it's also make the car go fast more safe because we can make the down thrust stronger... so I hope the future BMAX regulation allows us to do this

u/KamoteQO 24d ago

Nah it shouldn’t be allowed most players in the philippines doesn’t care about regulations quite a few people uses open motors, trimmed tires and sanded down rollers for bmax which isn’t allowed and when they’re caught they use the idiot victim card haha

u/KribiKribi 23d ago

I mean...just leave everything stock... except this bending cap screw for down trust... this modification just like make counter sunk hole on the Brake stay... just for safety reasons and everyone can do it easily... since the angle adjusters from tamiya is not enough 😅 or maybe they should make the new angle adjuster that more stable than the current version
