Just gotta make sure you land them jumps or your body don't last long with that hard surface! Found that out when I went to bmx ramp park. Lol

They are the complete D-Hawk shocks. The Bluebird is a animal for sure!

Finally got round to fitting my Bluebird BLSH50B servo last night, put the job off till I got all the other aluminium steering parts. Love the speed the wheels turn now. Massive difference from the stock setup!! LOL Also fitted my DHawk shocks a few days ago filled with 50w oil. Handling is much improved now, quite impressed with them. It's also tamed the wheelies a bit as well (which is a bonus) I think due to not squatting as easy at the rear with with the 50w oil.

Watched this last night. Thats some proper abuse in that video!

Them 1/5 scales seem boring and slow.

What's the max safe temp for the 8S motor?

Just bought one of them today, for the money might as well if it toughens up the front.

I'm running the 4S 6200mah version and they work great too!

Got my Raptor body all sprayed up yesterday. . . Been a while since I've done a body but think it came out pretty well! Still need to reinforce it all (mainly the bed) with goo/tape.

Yeah think your right. I'm gonna scrub it myself as usual.

Anyone who's got the proline raptor body did yours come very slightly roughed inside? I've normally roughed mine when washing them with soapy water with a scotch pad (or similar) but not sure if this one needs it as it looks like it's been factory done?

100% traxxas spurs and pinions are crap! My GDS are working a treat for me, miles better quality.

What 10000mh 4s are you planning on using?

Yeah better of going this route, you can adjust it then to suit perfectly then. Bought one last night! Just as well really as the rear end of my shell is knackered.

Just one washer? I would of thought a 2-3?

Goodies arrived!

I bet that motor was screaming on 8S! lol

I see now! Obviously it was a V1 hence the 3S batteries.

You bought a second hand X-maxx?

Why only 3S?

Something I need to try on mine. Was thinking of putting it on level 1 to tame the wheelies a little bit. Currently on level 3 and she wheelies like a good'en! Fitted my new gds pinion/spur (21/50) yesterday and only gave it a quick test in the back garden to make sure everything was good, which it is thankfully. The new gds hardened gears make a good noise too, just from the sound you can tell they are harder. My truck should be running a little quicker than 18/46 looking at the ratio chart. 55mph I reckon, should be tasty.

Funny I read on another forum 1 FL oz per shock. Just converted it 1FL oz = 28.4ml I reckon a couple of bottles should do the trick.

Just bought some DHawk shocks, but wont be here for a week. In the meantime I was wondering how much shock oil would I need to get to fill up all 4 shocks? Also I am going to up it to 50 Wt.

Ordered one of these in the end.

Nice one. Ordered all the same parts last week. Only thing I did not get is the servo horn, which servo horn should I get?
