alexdaytrade Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 I'm thinking of getting the pro line lmt tires... Any thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Go for it, but they look like they will get ruined if you run on concrete or tarmac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried it the first day on tarmac after two flips I was done. I don't want to unglue my wheels so I'd need a replacement set too... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Busby Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Joining this convo because I: A. Want one B. Want to know about the printed parts. @.AJ. Do you know what plastic they’re made from... looks like ABS from the pics I have seen but could really be anything. Do the stock axels have much flex in them as standard? How much tolerance for moving parts is there? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 PLA with 100% infill, whatever that means lol The stocks axle cases are rubbish, they are just designed pretty poorly, too thin plastic, not enough fixings holding them together, they have released update ones that have seemed to address everything. The braces are designed so there’s still plenty of room to fit the driveshafts with out the bone ends catching 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 Found this servo saver! HPI 117051 STRC also do alloy upgrade parts for it if needed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mydoddy69 Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 Well if you believe the FB crowd there’s meant to be a MaxD coming out. Hopefully that will include the new updated axles so I think I’ll wait for that and then treat myself 😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might talk to the guy at the weekend and see about getting the models so I can make them more widely available here in the UK ( I guess he isnt in the UK?) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allan k Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Hi i’m thinking about getting me a lmt but would like the one with upgraded axles, but how to tell if the one in the hobby shop is the upgraded? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
