Need to hear from the team guys. How are the new front hubs/spindles different than the XXX4 pieces?

The Losi 22 manual is not been released yet. I believe it'll available on the TLR website when the car is on the shops shelf.

Heck....I remember being the first one in our club building my XX in 93 and going to a race that summer with Jack Johnson and Scott Brown racing their prototype XXT's.

I bought a Cox/Kyosho Turbo Scorpion because I couldn't wait any longer for the RC10 to come out. I was only 12 or 13 then though.

pre-ordered mine
I am going back to the darkside (LOSI)

does anyone know why the front arms are bent up
heard it was to lower the center of gravity, it is aerodynamic, it keeps flies off
but dont know what the real reason is and will this arm work for a xxx-cr

It is to help lower the shocks to reduce CG.

No they will not work on the CR. The 22 uses all metric hardware including hinge pins. The outer arm area where the spindle attches is totally different as well. Don't know about over all length but guessing it might be different as well.

Yup thats what I have read
Does it do anything with the suspension geometry by bringing up the hubs making the wheels as high as the diffs, sometimes higher when on bumps
what about the turnbuckles, it should be higher on the hubs too increasing the roll center (?)
or was it just makes it possible to use longer big bore shocks
thanks

My Spektrum S6070 arrived yesterday, thinking half the cost was the bling packaging Ballistic 10.5, Spektrum S3500 Rx & a Novak GTB2 to follow. Not ordering the new DSXR Pro is going to be a challenge. Weird how Horizon has it listed before the Spektrum site. Now I just need to decide on LiPo's. Oh and I might need the 22 as well. One day I will wake up and it will be March

Speaking of vintage Losi's. My first Losi was the Jr. T circa 1991-2ish, with slipper clutch, ball bearings and Pro-Line wheels and Tires It's in amazing condition and for sale if anyone is interested.
