Okay a couple of Q's, I am about to order a set of 16mm shocks. Will I have to get springs? And can you tell me what you have on your sweet ride. I see they only offer a couple of options but I would like to use the 15mm springs if they will fit?????
I am running TLR243019 rear spring and TLR243015 front spring and they are great on a medium sized track with low to medium bite. If anything I might go a step heavier TLR243016 in the front for a slightly larger more open track but I think that is it. |

In due time you will be in awe!! :) Post pics let us know how its going!!
If you buy TLR243022 and TLR243021 they do not come with springs. Unfortunately 15mm springs will not fit.

Thanks for the info. I will get both sets just to be safe. Appreciate it. Our track is pretty open. Huge air. Do you know of any CSI pistons that will work??? I was thinking maybe the Kyosho 16mm would??? I didn't see any Losi 16mm.

I have been satisfied with the stock pistons and have not really looked into options but I will see what I can come up with.

Ten hours- done.
Figures a heck of a storm just rolled thru. I sure all the outdoor tracks are going to be a mess this weekend. |
They look great guys!

Mine is going to be electric from the start, although I don't think I'm getting mine until the end of the month. I missed out on the first batch ordering. I'll definitely keep an eye on this thread and participate in the discussion.

Great Thread. Pics looks nice!!

Looks awesome, I want one but can't decide if I want to go nitro or electric!
|
I have done both and prefer electric. It's just easier to maintain.

Looks cool Wheelman, but you need to support your motor wires so that they don't rub on the rear drive shaft. You would be amazed how fast a smooth metal surface can wear through wire coating.

Tip to anyone building a new kit. Don't use the shock oils provided in the kit. The oils in the kit are 10-15 wt more than want is on the tube. I ended up with 37.5 in the front and 30 in the rear and it is feeling pretty good right now after about an hour of run time.
The steering on the 3.0 is better than the 2.0 in every aspect. On and off power, entering the corner, in the middle and on exit. Lovin' it right now. Just need some more wheel time. It drives very different than any 1.0 or 2.0 I have had before. |
