This new buggy is the next iteration of their B-Series 4-wheeler with improvements such as a lighter overall weight, lower CoG and better handling on jumps and rough tracks.

What We Like:
One of our favorite classes to run is 1/10 scale 4WD offroad. With the current technology, it’s like running Touring Car on the dirt – precise handling, speed and big jumps. There also looks to be plenty of space on the chassis for electronics. AE’s new ride seems to have all the fixin’s for a top notch car to help propel you to the top step of the podium. Just wish there was an offroad track near us to find out!
What We’re Not Sure About:
Nothing yet. I’m sure this will be an amazing vehicle!
