I have been running these in my gear boxes and they are fantastic. So easy to clean and super free.

use a longer ball stud (8mm) and place a washer & lock nut on the opposite side.

If it ever comes loose or if you break the plastic ear on the hub ?

You won't loose the blue tab..

Moving the c-hubs back 2mm did help quite a bi indoor t but I didn't like it on our bigger and lower traction outdoor track -- made the buggy less stable.
i'm on the 3x1.4 with 32.5 front and 27.5 rear. the gull setup helped more with agressive entry. I am mainly fighting a mid to exit push now and am pretty sre that will be cleared with the rear hubs being moved back.

probably. many of the guys using the MM front arms and towers, also use the rear MM arms, which are 2mm back.

common cure is add 1/2 oz of ballast in front or on top of servo..

Heading to the track in 45 minutes to run my RM for the first time - very excited - also excited to see how it compares to MM on indoor clay.

Hey guys I'm getting mine Friday and I'm gonna build and race it sat. Track is a pretty large outdoor track with regular dirt. Any thing I need to do to the stock setup? I prefer more stable cars that I have to drive hard if that helps

Motor is a 10.5 btw, going to run a 24 pinion and no timing on esc.

I have talked to people that ran this chassis. I am curious to see what your impressions are.
