No glitching
You guys are overthinking too much. The car isnt glitching cause of a tight radio box unless you are using a old am radio. They are having problems with the clutch heating up. .5mm? cmon guys.
Anyways how does the car handle compared to the x4? I want one. Thinking about getting one and making a trip to blue diamond twice a month for fun.

Just making a guess. Never had a reciever box cause glitching before. I zip tie all my wires tightly together sometimes taping them together with electrical tape. Never had any glitches before. It may be but I highly doubt it. Just seen you run savox. You know alot of people are having brown outs running those servos? Might try adding a glitch buster or check your battery under load.

Who's Hara? Only joking, I had a feeling when his name was on the entry list for the WC it had Mugen written all over it. Not sure why people tough he would be racing for Shepherd.

Thatīs good info, thanks. I own a 4x and am looking to get a 5 but Iīm forcing myself not to due to the amount of spare parts and 4x stuff I already have. Can you do a rough estimate on how faster the 5 is compared to the 4x in terms of lap times? i.e. on a 20 sec mid speed track.

I notice big improvements among my friends who are already migrated to MRX5. They are faster during race.
My friend who use to TQ most of the time with his MRX4X, nowdays he said " is having difficulties to keep up the fight with the 5 ".
So I guess only me and him still left with MRX4 cars

Guys which turnbuckles are recommended to use on the front uprights instead of the stock ones? Read somewhere that t2's are larger (more thread) therefore preventing stripping!!!! Anyone?
