losi dbxl

[markv8]

it was a rubber tube but it just got chewed up, as for the centre mount its a area rc one with larger bearings , i have used both fid and area rc  equipment on this build each one with there own merits, but both are very good

So if I use a centre mount for rearshaft is it likely for pin to come out from the rear centre shaft or is there anything else that can be done to fix this known design flaw in the dbxl ?

[markv8]

just lock tight every thing and you should be ok i had one hard landing and the front shaft broke flm shafts or team hoonage are the replacements if they do go

[markv8]

stripped cleaned ready for new diff oils and tune

going to run 60 front  100 centre and 30 rear and see if thats any better

How heavy is it now mate the dbxl with all them bling bling upgrades? 

[markv8]

not much more than stock, just put 2 tanks in it today , all i can say is what a machine , well balanced,  jumps and lands good, loads of power  the diffs are now 100 centre and 30 front and rear , it still pulls out of corners then goes sideways on the straight great fun this morning,

its bling yes but i can bash it fill it up/ bash it fill it up/  its not unbreakable but its reliable between clean ups, going to leave arms plastic for flex but everything else is trimmed , and shimmed its all good fun
