I put a drop of CA glue in the holder and then pushed the bearings in and that seems to have worked well.

aluminum bearing holders and clips.

a tenth per lap is pretty good it adds up.

I've been using an RDX for about 3 years already. And I spent the same on parts as the car when I got that as well.

I've ordered the alloy bearing holders

thats a tenth with a setup that i feel i can make better with some time. the phi 09 has a ton of potential over the phi07 i have yet to play with pin height diff settings and such. i also feel that when the straight arms become available the car is only going to get even faster. a tenth a lap in a race is alot in a 6 min race its almost a lap.

off hand, what is so much different from the 07/08 phi to the 09? i saw the top deck is now top mounted to easily accept lipos(awesome) but what else? i saw all those holes on the bottom of the chassis to move the arms around i think...for wheelbase?

this was my first year racing and the phi has treated me well, i just didnt know if picking up an 09 would be a good idea or not. there was a nice one for sale for 275 with a few spares. seemed like a decent deal

the other holes in the chassis is for running straight or swept arms.
