Was bulding my lite today and had a problem with one of the rear hexes. the threads for the set screw stripped out so I have to go buy a new set tomorrow. pretty disappointing. Other than that the build has gone smoothly. gonna finish the shocks tomorrow.

Looks sweet man! I see your super close to me! I will probably be seeing you at peg!
Another note I was looking on MIP website and saw there is 2 different puck systems for the b5m. Which one would be the right one?

Top one (Regular) is for stock buggy.
Bi-metal is made for 17.5 and faster motors.

Same here. Both set screws snapped. They are only 1.6mm screws. Emailed AE...no response for 4days. Not like AE

I talked to the shop about the clear x-rings and he said they don't make that big of a difference. I also asked about the "fox" shock bodies and he said the same about them to. What are your guys opinions that are running them? I just want this car setup from the start. I know I should run it stock but I can never leave anything stock!

Yeah i had an old set of aluminum hexes from my b5m and they dont fit. tried the set screws from them and those are too big. I dont understand why they would make the screws smaller. Makes no sense.

I am just waiting for my motor to come in there and then need to get a new battery strap and figure out how I want to do the electrics.

I snapped one off, don't have to tighten very tight I guess but they need to be a little thicker for sure.

Tech Adept
I ended up picking up my B5M Factory Lite today so now I just need to decide on the electronics. I simply do some backyard and club racing so I'm not to worried about regulations. Here is what I'm thinking:
Motor/Esc - Hobbywing Justock 8.5T possibly 10.5 combo
Servo - Savox 1257TG .07 speed/138oz torque
Lipo - 2s SMC 5800mah Square Pack
Tire - Rear Proline bowties/blockades or Jconcepts Goosebumps (Loose outdoor track)
Front Not sure
Pinion - Not sure for gearing with the Hobbywing and stock spur of the B5M I guess it will depend on motor as well.
Does this seem okay? This is my first 2wd buggy and I know it can get a bit cramped inside for the electronics. Is there anything at all I need to consider on top of what I listed? Will be ordering online.
