For the xb8 if your putting the throttle linkage ontop of the servo horn chances are it will rub with the body, am using the stock servo horn, plastic one, I stopped using the metal servo horns longtime ago, just find the plastic durable enough and swapping them out every 5 gallons worth of usage. On kopropo rsx one power servos, the throttle linkage will will rub if on top and the collar will also rub the servo case.

Also may I suggest for those that did not pay attention when building the xb8, make sure your servo case bottom part is not hitting the chassis.

Agreed, I've been using the Advantage filters and bearings for several years, no complaints what so ever.

I use a losi filter and holder on every car I run. The losi brand filters don't let dirt on the inside of the inner element as easily as others I have tried.

I do the same thing.

I also find that it fits under almost any body for any chassis.

Did anyone polish the large, front pillow/pivot balls? I did the lower ones last night, I think it'll help reduce the amount of dirt and crap that gets caked on them during the race day (and reduce wear on the plastics). Going to do the upper ones tonight.
