By the time one has tried this brand, and that brand, you could have probably bought some Lunsfords (and a good quality wrench) and call it a done deal. There are NO better Ti screws in the rc industry.

They are triple the cost, but i guaruntee you they will last more than triple of 2-3 times of removing. If a screw strips out after removing it twice with a quality wrench.. then really they are worthless

I just bought the kit this week from Tower. The front axle nuts are tight, but everything spins freely so I think I got the updated collars/tubes.

About the Orion. Is uses a box like the HW and viper esc's. The box is pricey and I rarely make a change after initially setup, so I use an usb adapter, similar to hotwire, and hook it to my PC. I think the usb adapter was like $8 from hobbyking. I mean, I set brake to 100%, set drag to 0%, set lipo to 3.2/cell and turn punch all the way up for 17.5. once you set that up.....what do you need to change at the track? At least I dont need to. When I have a new esc and car or got a new track where I might need to change punch (low bite) I will take my laptop or borrow someone box. If you get the HW esc's that box is like $30, so not bad. The orion is like $75. I think they smoke crack at orion
Maybe they studied business psychology with Hudy…

If you way overprice your products people will think it's light years better and worth every penny.
