the rear screws wont get, counterstuck with the chassis holes for the bulkhead and i even used the dremel to fix it and it did nothing .
and i want to try a diffrent chassis, anyways the one im looking at is a flex chassis for the eight-t 1.0.
and its on sale for $40 cause losi is trying to get rid of them.

i will when i get the money, its only 3 mouths left for outdoor season in the east coast so im, just going to stick with my rb for now.
is the tq engine, a bottom end engine or a top end mid ridge engine ?
for now im ethier getting, a longer header or a stiffer clutch spring setup.
on my truggy to get more punch on my truggy.
the rb s5 isnt, a bottom end engine i should of read more into engines lol.

, i dont know how or why but it is lolnow the O'donnell Super Sport 21 is even easier and holds a tune even better
mine runs at anywhere between 225-255 just depending on the humidity. but it will hold the tune and run fine all day long. the jammin JPX is the easiest and holds a tune the longest for sure but if i was you do NOT get it, its a beast of an engine, its to much power most of the time and mine is probably pushing 9-10 gallons with no pinch. the carb isnt really any good on it and hardly any carbs fit either, we had to JB weld parts of it to stop air leak, but other than that never had any trouble but still do NOT get the Jammin JPX 21. not putting you (tc5 man) down but the carb issue isnt for someone with not much experience with engines, it took us alot of research on the carb to know how to fix it.

have you driven a TQ engine? im curious on your thoughts of comparing the two. i owned a GRP tuned like you and a guy at the track has let me run his TQ some and there is a difference, or atleast to me. the power is smoother and it FASTER , i dont know how or why but it is lol
GRP/TQ are some easy engines to tune, the GRP is a weird tune but it is easy to tune and they DO hold a tune forever, all i ever did was lean or richen the high speed needle 1 hour here or there, never touched the bottom.

i do have a nova carb from, my bf .21 how would that work i should fit that will keep a tune for sure. i think its because rb uses a composite carb insend of a alum one.
