the aka bag looks like a good alternative as well.

but at that price...

the proline bag looks good too (the non-blader wheels would be nice for stability)

lol, no mater what I do, I need less crap. I take EVERYTHING. heat gun, all my tires, all spare parts (4 AE 1/10th kits boxes), 3 cars, fans, cleaning supplies, oils and so on. Some shit just needs to stay at home, lol. A big race, sure take it all. club racing? I should just take one set of tires, only spare parts that are likely to break (arms, towers), if i bleed off my shocks at home, I wont need shock oils. I almost never bleed off my shocks at club racing.

hmm, the aka kinda looks good. I wonder what the quality is? Tower will ship it for free and $15 off the price. so not too bad. still need to reduce my crap

This is what I bought last night, but I am returning it. It seems to be well built, but too heavy fully loaded. IMO.

this one looks like it might be a more reasonable size, lol

The nice thing about the real Ogio is that I don't worry about my stuff when I fly and I don't worry about the bags when I lug it over gravel and such getting to the track, it's truly heavy duty. I question if that would be the case on a knock off.

I use the racers edge hauler bag, holds a ton of stuff and rolls nicely.

I almost got the AKA bag for all my tires in one spot but never pulled the trigger. Maybe Christmas.

Started building my son a matching B5m. He has been pounding out the last few races like a champ with his Centro at JBRL. He broke two arms this weekend a few other things started to give out, going to keep C4.2 for his back up. He is jazzed about stepping up to B5m, got it decked out, going to start with flat arms and see how it does for him though mine is gullwing. Should have him down around 1500 for stock with the 155 gram battery and all the goodies. Started to build it last night got to differential and hit the sack. Going to be best car I have built to date right from the get go. Not that he needs that nice of a car but so fun to build a nice new car all shiny and purty.

building up a b5m right now, I hear you on new kits, feels so good.

Installed the schelle.... nice quality product - now my slipper actually slips.

Also got to the bottom of my diff problems, it was just simply too loose. I thought it was plenty plenty tight enough but i finally said screw it and just about locked it down then backed off a bit and now everything sounds way better.

what i learned is the hand test with locking the outdrives in drivers and trying to move the gear by hand. Well I gave it about 1/4 more than I even though it needed and it was still way too lose in the car.

Here is what the 4/5mm combo plug looks like. 4mm bullet on one and a 5mm on the other. Weights a lot more since you basically have two bullets on the end of your wire.

I like how the B5/M has beefy ballends but the binding was really bugging me. I polished the balls prior to the build and I put one race weekend on them but as you can see they still bind. Somebody mentioned a ballcap reamer for Helicopters so I checked around and got a set. The issue is the AE stud is 5.5mm and the closest reamer was 5.6mm. I decided to try it anyway, and after reaming the camber links are now bind free. They still feel tight but time will tell if they will stay on as well as the stock cups.


Reamed cups on left, un-reamed cups (stuck) on right.


AE ball stud measures 5.5mm


Reamer measures 5.64mm


Reamers.

Geez removing the two screws from the waterfall provides a ton of rear flex, has anyone tried this?

Is it to much?

I have wheelie popping traction. No need. maybe for looser tracks? Look at the tlr guys. they are back to bolting on the waterfall also. Is it Sunday yet? I wanna race.

as long as I am running the right tires for the conditions.... my B5M does wheelies all day long. I have all the aluminum parts available but I like the way the car feels box stock with the right shock package. the aluminum hubs are awesome however. they work well. rear end is more predictable
