Now we all have dumb question, yes even you mr king, granted TC5 may have more but deal with it. Every one here gives him a helpfull answer but you just insult him.

I say enough is enough for you and your attacks on TC5. If you want to rant TC5 do it in pms to him not here.



thanks rider king revo isnt worth replaying to in my opinion hes just has a crush on me or something \

he isnt any help anyways.

all he needs to do is not to answer my question but he rather just act like a child .


i been staying on topic on this tread and tend to leave it at that .

Honestly, you need to find an experienced racer that will spend 3-4 hours teaching you about nitro stuff in general. Get all your answers in one place and at one time. That type of help is a lot better than what you can learn on rctech.

This type of forum is good for answering detailed questions about specific aspects of your truggy. There is a natural assumption that you are comfortable building a race kit, which honestly appears to not be the case. If you get the help in person, the solutions are a lot easier to explain and make a lot more sense.

Look at how much time was spent with your chassis brace issue. Hours. An experienced rc8t racer would have fixed it in 2 minutes tops. Linkages, someone in person can figure it out in 2 minutes.

This is why I previously mentioned supporting your LHS. They can help you figure this stuff out quickly. You'll learn a lot more about the truggy, and you'll learn quicker. And by the way, the experience will be a lot more fun.

I not much for bashing people on a forum. If I don't agree or dislike a post I just ignore it and move on unless of course your one that enjoys chaos lol. Everybody has a different learning curve. I love my RC8 and hope to soon have a Rc8T.

no actually when i got my eight 1.0 a long time ago it was a kit and i had to put together the whole kit it wasnt a roller.


trust me, i like the fact that the turnbuckles and theirs rubber boots on the rear axles and the prebuilt shocks i wish others whould do that also.

i, dint say that the rc8t manuel was all wrong there was a few mistakes in the pictures no big time relex lol it happens.

you had this truck for a long time im guessing so of course you can take it apart without the manuel .
