Those look stellar. AE is really stepping up their game.

I ran the durango buggy for a while, and they had set screws to hold down their pistons (I think it was the durango)... and thought.. man, why doesn't EVERYbody do it this way? Far superior to an e-clip.

And it never ends....

When is the Ohlins shocks coming out?

TiN coated shafts could be useful.

Those screw on pistons are awesome...too bad they come out about a month after i purchased the various AE ma$hined pistons..Since changing pistons w/eclips are the most aggravating thing to do on this car, the new pistons/shock shaft are must haves...The shock bodies look pretty sweet as well!

Most motors have adjustable timing by turning the endbell or changing inserts, more timing generally makes it faster, likewise some esc have the means to control dynamic timing (boost/turbo) also punch is adjustable (1-9) which controls how mild or aggressive the power is delivered. The esc can be programed manually or via a program box (necessary to access boost/turbo). What motor/esc are you using?

Guys, new to B5M.

Need some advice on when to use the different front and rear arms please.

-Front flat arms
-Front gull wing arms
-Rear B5M arms
-Rear B5 arms

Best combination for the following conditions
1. Super high grip like carpet or astro turf
2. High to medium traction on indoor clay
3. Low traction like loose soil

Thanks

Is it a improvement in all track conditions, or just for high traction tracks.

Anyone??
