      No - he is a "Lanc", or at least lives in Lancashire, and here the racist in me comes out as, having uttered  that word, I spit to get rid of the foul taste in my mouth! Consequently, you have to "make allowances".

      Looks like the 3.0 & 4.0 buggy are different:

      https://www.amainhobbies.com/team-losi-racing-16mm-front-shock-spring-set-green-4.8-rate-2-tlr243016/p251275

      Doesn't spec the length but looks longer at the rear.

       

      Put the f&r numbers from your manual in google and have a look to see if there's a difference.

    4. hebby

      hebby

      don't have a manual lol and its an EU Losi 8ight. found a set of new 15mm shafts in the bag the roller came with and the rear shocks are in bits so i would presume these are for the rear shocks.

       

  10. Took delivery of a Losi 8ight EU this morning so its buy a brushless conversion kit and get it running :) Miss my old Losi too much and this is going to be a keeper :)

      Yeah then poison all my fish with bits of turd floating around my tank :)

    3. Si Coe

      Si Coe

      I'd use another thermometer, measure the temp of some ice water, tap water and tank (warm) water with that and use that as a reference. You really need to test a few different temps to be sure its right.

      Medical thermometers are super accurate but have a stupidly short range (typically 35-40C) so not much use otherwise.

    4. ajlovering

      ajlovering

      Mix ice with water and put it in the fridge. The water will be at exactly 0 degrees due to the amount of energy it takes to turn ice from solid at exactly 0 to water at exactly 0. 1 CC of water takes 1 calorie to raise its temp by 1 degree centigrade and it takes 80 calories to turn 1 cc of ice at 0 degrees into water at 0 degrees so if you have ice and water together in a fridge you can be very sure it is exactly 0 degrees centigrade

      Cheers
