so on the 2.0 rear hub is it ok to use the a hole on the hub with the #4 on the rear shock tower ? i just mounted it in the a hole on the rear hub with the #4 on the tower i just need to adjust the camber again .

Maybe I'll give Losi another try, a fellow racer mentioned that board issue was resolved a long time ago........
toiffel, the dynamite are the same thing as the losi's just different wrap and they dont have the board in them.

Default Losi Lipo

I searched a little but couldn't seem to find any info on the circuit board included in the losi lipo....I remember reading somewhere that people were bypassing it, because if you took a hard hit the lipo would act weird...can someone confirm this?? Or has there been any problems with the circuit board??? I just picked up one, put foam on top and bottom for protection, just want to make sure.....

I have had 2 out of 5 with the boards have issues when I charged them and then went to run. The battery acted like it was dead. A quick swap and it was good. I have one opened up and there are 2 boards but I have no idea how to remove them. The losi lipos that come with the red jst type plug have the boards if they have a black 3 prong type receiver plug they they don't have the board. I hate those little boards.

It is listed as 74mm long... assuming that is accurate, the battery will be too long.

How has the proline bulldog body been holding up? I like the look and the price over the stock truggy body.

The stock body holds up better. The bulldog body looks like it will hold up longer but so far it hasn't proven so. Even the bulldog buggy body is already cracked and they are not that old maybe 3-4 races. I have losi bodies that are well over a year old that are still kicking strong. I think Ill go back to the stock bodies.

ive tried the bulldog body on buggy and truggy as well as the jc punisher for buggy and truggy. do you self a favor and stick with the stock bodies unless you like replacing bodies often. i have a bulldog buggy body that has like a gallon of fuel thru it and its already cracked. both the punisher and the bulldog on the truggy didnt even last a gallon. i still have stock bodies from last year that are in perfect condion other then paint
