You would be surprised.

There are interesting people with interesting theories around these parts. Take it for what you will man.

Hey guys,

Trying to get the little one (6) setup with my old b4 ft. I've got a 17.5 tekin system in it but I am having trouble finding a cheap (under 35) servo that is decent for him. Any help would be appreciated.

They are set up so you can drill your desired hole size and pattern.

Moorehead68 he told me tapered but said cav runs the regular ae pistons. He says he like tapered because he feels it soaks up the smaller multiple bumps better

I just picked up all the parts for the BB conversion and had a question. Are guys using the Losi shock ends too, or just the Losi spring cups with the AE shock ends? I have not even opened the bags or looked closely at anything, but as soon as I finish off this pizza I'm gonna tear into it. Thanks
