That's a great deal... shame I just bought mine last month from tower!
I'll try strapping them down a bit looser and see if that fixes the problem. They weren't that tight to begin with, so ill leave just a little bit of wiggle room. What do you guys recommend for cleaning? I have done multiple searches and "simple green" "simple green" etc, but i wonder if that weakened my strap too? Also after a day at the track my car is squeakier than a mouse.. >< So any recommendations for after race cleaning/keeping this beast in tip top shape would be appreciated. [: Having the arms squeak, and the bearings feel like trash isn't appealing. Starting to get the hang of driving my EB better, been sticking it out with Joe's SNats setup, the main issues I was having at first were due to the track being too dusty. So in the morning/evening the car handles amazing, but 1-5pm, if we don't water the track its a handful. All in all, more track time is helping. Thanks for all the help so far with everything guys. I've had the car for a month now, and am loving it more and more. |

Same here..the Losi battery straps seem to be more durable.

Just keep in mind that usually when the track is dusty, it's also abrasive, so new(er) tires will always be better. One thing that you can try is if the grip goes away all of a sudden because of the dust, turn your Dual Rate down so that you take away steering from the car. A car with a push will force you to slow down more to turn. Most guys just want to turn their expo on their throttle down, but I feel this can be more beneficial. Start off with just dropping it from 100 to 80 or 85 and see if you notice the difference. |
Where do you guys find a replacement recessed washer for the wing at? I can only seem to find it as part of a new mounting kit. Or if y'all have any other options that work I'm all ears...

I found these at Amain: https://www.amainhobbies.com/exotek-...665blk/p506266

Yeah, I was thinking those were my only option.. pretty much what I paid for the whole mounting set up...
I've now officially turned my 410.3 into a buggy... |
I have a 410.3 chassis i have not used in awhile. Did you get the conversion kit when it was available? Or is this a custom build? Pics?

OK, totally newb question here.
I'm upgrading servo horn to TKR5253B. This is the clamp, double hole configuration. Using the included M3 to attach to servo shaft and suggested flathead M3 to attach to linkage. There is a small gap with a hole through on the backside of the horn. Is there a small screw (not included) that is supposed to be installed there to tighten or cinch the horn around the servo shaft???? I'd hate to run this thing and strip the horn or servo shaft because it's too loose under use. Thanks |
If I remember right that's included.

OK, the included screw is for the clamp, not to attach horn to servo.
I'll try it that way.. thanks for the help |
