Not really thrilled about the body. Perhaps a good paint job will change my perspective.

And it's always fun to watch !!

Is that upgrade option only for the nitro version?

No, if this 'upgrade' makes it to production, it'll be bolt on parts that need zero modification. And, here's to hoping that this becomes available soon!! I also hope they stiffened the plastic of the rear wing mount/support, as well.. I can't tell you how weak that thing is... Grrr. lol

Anywho, I'm just SUPER happy to see how many updates they're doing to the 811 platform, every little bit helps! Options, options, options Love it!!!

Default Metal servo arm for Ebuggy

Hey Guys,

My friend and I are both having the same issues of the small plastic gear adapter for the steering servo stripping after a while. I tried to fit a serpent metal steering horn, but when I put the locknut on to fasten, the center brace gets in the way.

Does anyone have a solution?

Thanks.

OK, one more question guys. In the E buggy manual there is a part number for an ALU servo horn made for the E-buggy (part#600463) Does anyone know when this part will be available?

I just used a standard aluminum arm. I think I have a Losi one on there with a nut on the back. I can take a picture later on
