Just bought my FIRST LOSI! Not going to lie...I feel like I just cheated on my wife. All I have ever raced is Team Associated. But with me being on a tight budget for this rig, I couldnt pass up the deal I got on a scte roller.
I havent had time to skim through this thread yet, but I was hoping to get some recommendations for some inexpensive motor and esc options.
I have been seeing that the 3800 4 pole from castle isnt a bad option, with a mmp. Also the hobbywing esc has been used, but I like the castle and tekin tuning options via pc.
Anyone have any good recommendations for around $180?

Diff pin blocks
I do machining for a living and I have made about 10 sets of diff pins that I sold locally ( did not want to step on chris's toes ) so out of respect I did not try to sell anything on here.
Not sure what everyone would expect to pay for the steel blocks in the diffs for a set of 12pcs?
I might make some up the the cost will be way more than the pins so if you want to let me know what might be fair I will consider making some.
Also I will have to see what I would have to do to sell on the forum what are the requirements?
Thanks Mike

Hey Casper,
I watched your Pro4 race on Wednesday at OCRC, you were flying. Would have embarrassed most of the expert 1/8 scales.
Are you still running Ryan's setup as listed on the first page, or have you made changes since then? Also, what tires & inserts are you using?
Thinking about getting the adjustable hinge Pin holders, did you notice much improvement with them?

I am going to try the Ofna setup but would prefer the lighter weight of the stock gears if it would be more reliable.

So when are these trucks supposed to be back in stock at hobbyshops, and why is there such a gap in stock to begin with?

To anyone that doesn't mind answering this. I took my shock caps off and changed weight oil. I watched a vid after the fact on setting rebound by pushing in the shaft before screwing on cap.
How do you guys normally set your shocks? Or do you just fill and put on cap with shaft fully extended out?
Chris, thanks for the fast shipping with the adaptors.

I could use a little explanation here. Last thing I want is 2 shocks to be different.
How does the truck come stock...no rebound, little..etc?

Sometimes I don't get them even the first time, so I may have to repeat the process. I'm not so picky about it that I measure the rebound. I just eyeball it and my truck seems to handle great.
Hope that helped.

rx8 users am I missing something?
trying to make sure the rx8 is setup for sensorless operation.
can't I just use the hotwire too put it on sensorless?
sorry I've been a mamba guy for a long time this speedo is all new to me in hot wire dashboard it says to change dual mode sensor or sensorless in set up, I go to set up and don't see any options to switch it.
please and thank you for any help!

Anyone know what the stock angles are when using the alum hop up hinge pin holders? I want to keep the same stock angles.. I'm guessing 0 all around? But I'm not positive..
Thanks,
Thanks,
