Droop screws are in backwards. Turn them around and youll save the chassis.

it goes either way, by the time the screws wear the chassis it will be time for a new one anyway.

Can't decide which one nitro buggy to buy, looking some info about NB48, hope you can help me
Just some questions:
- Durability. How about plastic steering spindles (TKR5041), plastice rear hub and other parts around arms? Do they develop slope quickly, break a lot and so?
- Air filter. I can't see direct replacement on amain from brands like Protek and Lucky7, but seems it has about same shape as JQ air filter. Does it (or any else) fit?
- Wear&tear, how about it?
- Any out-of-box issues, like one with fuel tank?
- And finally, how it handles on bumpy rooted track? How fast it can be?
upd: there is no mention about screws holding both servo arms on servos. Kit comes without them, or just mistypo in manual?

here is a link to a video i did on a track here in dallas and it is very very rough car just sucks up the rough.

I have little to no wear on my buggy and have 2 gallons on my car. I run the losi filter and it works fine if getting filters is an issue. I have not had an issues with the tank and have not had any real issues other than the ball ends are a little tight but you can squeeze them with some pliers and fix that. when you get the car there is no slob i am just now getting a little slop in the arms and I think it feels better with a little slop...hope the info helped.

Thanks for input. Saying "I run the losi filter" you mean that you're using complete filter assembly? Because i see that 3.0 filter shape is differ from the tekno.
Also i've noticed that Ae8.2 filter has about same shape. (basically i'm worrying about it because i have NO local parts support, everything gonna be ordered from US shops)
And seems there is no tank puller in kit, right?

mr240 02-26-2014 08:10 PM

You can use these. http://www.amain.com/product_info.ph...Air-Filter-10/

Kit does not come with a tank puller. But nothing a zip tie can't fix. Or just order a Losi one.

Yes I run the whole losi filter including the different shape pipe work

Tank pull use the losi one fits the body perfect as well

Great buggy I love mine

I went with the d8 filter system because I of the huge surface area, and I can buy pre-oiled filters in bulk.

vandalzzz 02-27-2014 09:45 AM

And what about screws for fixing steering and th/br servo arms, do they come within kit?

Are you asking about the screws to attach the servo to the chassis. If so, then yes it comes with the kit. But if you are asking if it comes with screws to attach the servo arm to the servo itself, then no. The servo should come with a screw since each brand is different.

well having the nb for a week I think I found my setup, here is the results of my first race with it and just built it a day before a series race and then the following week after tweaking the setup.
