This is the Yokomo B-MAX2 MR 1/10 Scale 2WD Competition Electric Buggy Kit. After a successful 2011 and 2012 race season, Yokomo gives us the latest evolution of the B-MAX2 buggy now equipped with the ability to run a rear or mid-motor configuration. While the traditional three gear rear-motor transmission is better suited for dirt off-road surfaces, the four gear mid-motor configuration has shown to improve corning speed and drivability on high grip surfaces like carpet and turf. 

The B-MAX2 MR also features a redesigned molded chassis developed for modern LiPo batteries, brushless motors and the dual motor configuration. The chassis is long for stability while remaining slim keeping weight in the center line. In the front end, the B-MAX2 MR has been engineered with the ability to run a wide or slim track to suit nearly any condition, with the necessary parts included in the kit. On all four corners, Big Bore "X" shocks cushion the jumps while ball bearings and tungsten differential balls ensure a smooth drivetrain.

Features:

  • Redesigned ball differential with tungsten balls
  • Big Bore "X" shocks
  • Hard anodized shock cap balls & shock end balls
  • Redesigned molded chassis (mid motor and rear motor)
  • Redesigned Aluminum Rear Suspension Mount (Toe-in 3°, 3.5° & 4°)

This is a very well designed buggy with thoughtful engineering which allows you to use mid or rear motor as well as an assortment of battery configurations from saddle to shorty or full stick lipo.

It is also very easy to build with sequential packets including plastic parts so no need to look up that parts tree anymore. Instructions are clear with good English interpretations. I haven't broken a single part yet in a few months of racing stock and running every week. Very low maintainance buggy.

I have tried both rear and mid config. Both are very good!

I haven't broken ANYTHING! The quality of this kit is superb. I had a B4.2 and the fit and finish on the Yokomo is noticeably better. While somethings seem a bit perplexing and questionable during assembly, out on the track the car dispels any earlier doubts. It comes with all the parts necessary for mid motor,which is basically a different gearbox, extra idler gear, different battery clamp, and wing mount. The body is the same for mid or rear motor and has different cut lines for each.

Buyers should look to purchase the V2 instead if the track is high bite because you get some hop ups included (idlers gears, alloy chassis, gear diff w/ metal internals). These make the car more responsive but if you are running on med-low bite dirt or clay, the V1 is extremely easy to drive and more forgiving.

Best car i've had...it's really durable fairly cheap,and very simple...whole built tooked me only 8 hours. Adjustments are really fast and quick besides changing motor to rear/front...only thing that disapointed me was usage of low profile servo with mid motor and standard lipo...
