yea thats what i wonder also but every manf has at least one "flaw" but yea i dont understand why you whould ever use "small bearings" espially on the hubs on a 1/8 scale.
on my rc8t the bearings are a perfect size for a 1/8 scale there still good even with little run time on them.
the flaw on the rc8t is them dam "steering bushings" that key into the front knuckles if there not keyed in the screw and the bushing will loosen and fall out even with locktight on the screws.
im not bashing losi like i said every manf has there flaws.
