jeff the disk they are making are the same as the mugen i have a set of plates and disk and i know some one was runing them i just want to know how

Yeah the Mugen discs will slip right onto the outdrives but the brake pads need modifying. You need to elongate the holes outward with a carbide rotary tool. You can also use Kyosho brake pad bolts as they are thinner and require less grinding of the holes.

HAI.....WHAT HAPPEN FOR ORIGINAL ONE (S811)..

Anyone know where to get 811 shock springs. I saw they had some new weights, but everywhere i look i see only the old weights.

Question
 

I am considering making a switch from my Losi car. I am trying to decide which car to try. I have read on this thread for awhile and am interested. Personally at our local level a Losi wins over 90% of the races I attend. I read on here guys switching from other brands but what about the losi car. How does this car which takes many cues from the Losi compete with it.

That is a tough question, I am sure it is probably more durable, but for the most part your question comes down to driver.

its way more durable. the arms don't bow, the drive train last 100 fold longer than the losi. I had 4 gallons on my drive train before i changed it and I only changed it because im going to the worlds. It could have went a while more...

The car drives like a touring car on dirt. that would be my best description.

hands down my new fav car of all time had a weird tracton roll to break the front shock tower in warm up form 3ed round but the car felt amzing after some tweeks :)
i have never seen this much steering ever. and if you tell it where to go it gose now and not after it push. this 50/50 breaking thing is nutty i thought it was going to be stupid and not turn but dose not and my timing was all messed up

car fun

shock tower :flaming:

Someone said the same thing to me. Said it had a lot of features of an onroad car. I am loving the innovation that serpent brings to the table, but I am too deep into Xray so I can only afford to put the Serpent shocks on my car. I might catch a cheap roller one day to check it out.

What is the number of teeth that is stock on the clutch bell?

16

Thanks Chad, the instructions weren't very clear!

no problem

I switched from Losi, or Loosi, to the 811.

The biggest difference to me was just how much tighter the car feels. My 8ight 2.0 had so much slop in the steering and there was nothing I could do about it.

After a full gallon I'm pretty sure my 811's steering is tighter than my 8ight's was before it was ever run.

Regardless it's more about the driver than the car anyway. The big thing is to just find the car that suits your driving style. If you like a lot of steering and very quick handling, check out the Serpent. :)

hand down for sure the most responsive car i ever driven
