PSM B-Max4 III shorty LiPo chassis conversion kit

PSM B-Max4 III shorty LiPo chassis conversion kit

Yesterday we reported about PSM’s shorty LiPo battery conversion kit for the Yokomo B-Max4 III and today the German company officially announce the set’s release. The conversion builds around a 2.5mm semi-gloss carbon fibre chassis that offers added stiffness and better scratch resistance than PSM’s well-known glossy carbon and it is designed around the use of the so called “shorty” 2S LiPo battery packs. A special feature is the airmount system for the battery pack, basically a “floating battery” mount that does not affect the flex of the chassis for equal cornering characteristics in both left and right bends. The battery mount weights in at only 25g and an included transversal carbon chassis stiffener optimises the flex characteristic of the chassis. The chassis conversion is designed for low to medium-grip tracks and it is available from now on.
