As you can see in the pic this is definately the ‘New’ 04 not the Firelap 04.
Here’s what we see as the changes:
[*]Rear Upper suspension arms replaced by ‘shock absorbers’.
[*]Body mounts changed, with rear mounts still acting as shock mounts
[*]Rear motor /gearbox pod unchanged.
[*]Main chassis design appears unchanged
[*]Front suspension appears to use a double wishbone setup with single ‘shock absorber’ mounted ot the lower arm. The enture front structure mounts the main chassis and appears to be a very slab-sided box frame for strength.
[*]High mounted steering servo as shown by the wiring supports the independaent suspension design
[*]Steering servo is a microservo not a custom unit as previously used. Likely to be the same servo fitted to the new 02.
[*]Heavy duty from ‘bull bar’ to attampt to protect suspension parts from impact
