I am trying the stock plastic braces and I like he added flex over the alum ones but this does take away frm the bling factor. The smart diffs are awsome too but not necessary just an added tuning value.
I gotta agree here. But for me the only MUST HAVES are the alu. servo saver top, the alu servo horn, and the KHZ extended quick change mount( the extension dramatically cuts down on flex by the spur/bell, thus making clutch bearings last twice as long. It is also a very nice feature to have with the quich change aspect.) Now thats not to say I'm not gonna put more stuff on mine, but that is really all you need.
Whatever you do don't put aluminum chassis braces on. This will significantly stiffen the chassis and take away alot of handling. There is a reason losi includes the Tuned Flex chassis.
