When is new model (1/8th eletric kit) coming out..

silverstar · **Joined:** Tue Apr 23, 2013 14:07:22 **Posts:** 2

I`m one of the regular customers who really love XRAY model in Korea and have been waiting for new 1/8th eletric kit since last year.
Even though I have to wait a little longer, I`m willing to look forward to the time to launch new model but until June. I`ve been waiting for so long. I`m tired.

FYI, there is just rumor which new model is coming out so most of shop owners dissuaded me from buying 808e.
Besides, it`s difficult to buy a spare parts of such a old model (more than 2 years old) like 808e in Korea so nobody recommended me XRAY electric kit.
That`s one of the reasons why I`m looking for new model even though I love 808e.

Reputation of XRAY products are quite good but I hope that your company can consider about spare parts to keep your market share in Korea.

Anyway, pls let me know what your company plan is or whether new model is coming within a couple of months.

Looking forward to getting your kind reply.

XRAY will offer soon the new XB9E as the XB808E kit was discountinued however the 808 series will continue to be well supported. The 808 is a piece of art in terms of performance and quality and there will be club level or even national level drivers winning in the next year/years with the 808 and as such car deserves perfect back-up, XRAY will provide as usually nothing less just a perfect service and support of the 808 series. XRAY has no plans to discontinue spares for 808 series.

Hi Brano,

thanks for the statement.

Can you be a bit more precise on what exactly "soon" means? I know that there are always events forcing a company to delay a product, but what are we talking about? Does "soon" mean 2 weeks or 3 months?

I think we all have the same problem right now: The other vendors have their products in the market and available (e.g. Serpent 811E 2.0, new Kyosho MP9e), but we are committed to Xray and are ready to wait. But not forever. It would be really helpful to have a timeframe on how long it takes.

Thanks!

Greetings

Now is in production new mould for the XB9E so we are talking about weeks and not about months. XRAY is aware about this situation and is making everything so it will be released as soon as possible.

It`s earlier than my expectation. Which means we can buy new model in May...wow..!! I`m really curious about the appearance and performance.... hope to see the details in catalogue soon.

With the mold being done should not be much longer . I know from exp working in tooling for injection molding. There are a lot of steps in making molds for plastic parts.

And another two weeks without news.
