Gazzabruv105 Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Very nice mate. Just out of curiosity, what made you go for this over other 1/8 electric buggies. Is it for racing or bashing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted January 9, 2013 Author Share Posted January 9, 2013 The main reason picking this was the price, the roller cost me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldblades7 Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 (edited) Very nice AJ be good to see it in the flesh. Whats your first impressions of it? Tough as the X1/X2 or more race breed? Edited January 9, 2013 by goldblades7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highlander Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 The only thing im slightly skeptical of, having one in front of me, is that the diffs seem so much more compact and weak looking to the old hong nors (even the spider gears inside look like their on a diet), Obviously to save weight and give better handling but i guess time will tell for the both of us if there as bulletproof as the old ones.

.AJ. Posted January 9, 2013 Author Share Posted January 9, 2013 (edited) Has yours got the upgraded forged steel internal gears?? they were a running change and the first released nitro's came with alloy gears Edited January 9, 2013 by .AJ.

.AJ. Posted January 9, 2013 Author Share Posted January 9, 2013 Last pics for now, im still waiting on a couple bits to finish the electrics, also Bez has a smaller spur for me to try, with the stock spur and motor mount im limited to running a 16t pinion which just isnt enough for a 1850kv on 4s for my liking Decided im going to paint the shell myself and save a few quid over a pro job, something very bright is in order me thinks 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brad8324 Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 how wide is that centre diff ?? i cant even class that as a centre diff !! it's toooo tiny ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted January 10, 2013 Author Share Posted January 10, 2013 This is a pure breed 4s Racer not a fat over weight Basher, so im pretty sure they will be fine, ive done a lot of research about this buggy over the last few weeks and cant say ive heard of any problems because of the compact size of the diff's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
