Top two factory guys are still running xx4's. Look it up.

No big problems , thing is a tank and very reliable..

For a brand new design Ae only needs to improve the performance a little more I admit.

Still
Less then a year old & already sold mass kits = very successful design..

Ae Sc 4x4 is not that bad Dave, driving wise or racing one , only problems personally experience thus far is winning & having good times...:cool:

I've seen them run and they look good enough on the track. I hear they are tough to work on. Would you base a 1/10 4wd buggy on the platform?

Yeah , Sc4x4 only little more work due to extra screws compared to others .



Always like the 4w belt design
So
think 1/10th 4w needs a fresh & modern belt design to beat the shaft designs already ruling as it is .

Long past due ....

A xx4 that didn't break would be the best 4wd of them all. They still work really good.

What does that got to due with rumors of a Losi 4- wd buggy???!!:rolleyes:Tlr is working with some belt driven 4-wdr 1/10 buggies but you didn't hear it from me!!!:sneaky:

I always wondered what it would be like to add offroad length arms to an existing Touring car. I wonder if that's the route they are going? Would be nice not have to use saddle packs.

losi tried that awhile ago too

Both the XXX4 (XXX-S) and XX4 (Street Weapon) were also T/C platforms.

The proto in the pictures was done to run the battery down the center but resulted is crazy short suspension arms/travel.

X-Factory is working on a new stand-alone 4wd platform. You can bet that it will heavily borrow from Losi's XX-4 suspension.

With shorty packs and less space needed it should make things much easier.. at least one would think.

Agreed no saddle packs. If it takes saddle packs I don't know if I want one. Itd be cool if it was perfectly balanced with a shorty pack though cause a lot of us 22 guys have them already. Losi should say something on here!

But not ROAR legal. Chassis has to accept Full Size stick or Full Size Saddlepacks.

IMO, biggest reason it won't happen, is that TLR would have to sell it to Horizon, and thus far, everything TLR has come out with has ended up as a RTR. I dont see a market for a RTR 4wd car.

As far as the 810 goes, use the right chassis and it is 1/8th scale legal other than weight

And i doubt there would be a SC104wd based design, they fired the guy that designed it with all the problems. They have it fixed in the FT version, but it was damn near a dead horse at one point

He really got fired!? :lol: it was a decent idea but when it takes and experienced racer 30 minutes to change the servo its ridiculous... That thing is to hard to work on and imo to light to be competitive. On an outdoor track the SCTE will kill it. Even though I hate Losi there products have increased quality like crazy in the past 1-2 years and I am starting to like there stuff.

and no noob will buy a 4wd. Its so hard to sell a "race vehicle" rtr because there price point is way higher.
