If they both share the same track rods I suggest that you use a small amount of black grease on the threads as it will make it easier.

I use a drill on the rods makes life a breeze but I still add the grease makes life easier when adjusting 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The X Maxx has gone already the Outcast is next as is the Losi MT, mind you the X Maxx will be replaced with the new version come spring when it's released .. I'm just waiting on parts for the outcast then its hitting the sales, no point having both the MT410 and Outcast there the same thing.

Skinso Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 It's nice to have the both I'm sure, outcast is a great bit of kit. I've 2 up for sale myself, the mt4 g3 and a bullet flux St. I've never sold any of my rc's so not sure on what the market is like in northern Ireland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mydoddy69 Posted January 15, 2017 Author Share Posted January 15, 2017 Painting in the house no thank you it stinks and the wife would most defiantly relive me of my testicles if I even dreamt of painting in her kitchen lol Theres some things I will push my luck on but the wife's kitchen is a big NO NO !

Wrighty8766 Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 I think that's where I have the advantage, I do the cooking so I guess it's my kitchen, my rules but seriously, would I do it again.....nope, stinks to high heaven and stunk all night too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd get battered if I did it! She hates me just boiling tyres off. The steam makes the laminate floor nice and slippy for a week.

cookie666uk Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 I painted my D90 shell last week. Heat gun to warm the shell and paint up. Then spray as usual. Heat gun again between coats and bring inside to cure. My mrs hates the smell of paint and she never said a word so cant have been bad...

Skinso Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 It's a good and easy build, pain in the ass bit for me is choosing your electrics and getting them to fit. I've the max8 fitted and now waiting on 2 Toro motors arriving from rcmart and a flysky receiver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shoud have waited and got a nice Hobbywing XR8 plus 1900kv combo .. I might just wait until next month and get one then and stick this in the spares box but then agian I might just try it lol Whatever happens this will end up sensored at some point Next decision for me is shocks do I upgrade the Pistons and caps or just stay true to the kit ? ??
