What are you using to tighten your wheels?

I have done the pin mod and use a hpi Baja 5t multi tool to tighten my wheels nuts,

The hpi Baja tool has the correct size ring hex at the narrow end and allows for excellent tightening.

I'm running all stock and have used loctite and tighten then down like crazy, but it's the same wheel that the nuts keeps unthreading and then the wheel falls off. after prob 10-15 minutes.

I cannot get near the same tightness with a glow plug wrench or a socked as I can with the hpi multi tool,

As when I tighten with any thing else it tries to rise up off of the nut,

I have never used Threadlock on my wheel nuts before, have stripped a couple rims but the wheel nuts remain tight,

No more stripped rims since doing the pin mod.

Well it's not even the fact that the rims are stripped because they aren't. The wheel nuts just keep flying off lol

I just bought the vorza and spent 4 hours running it at the track. The tires never came loose and I used zero locktite. My savage flux hp blows the tire out within 15 minutes on 6S or 20-25 minutes in 5S. I'd really like to find a way to convert the tires to the same style hub my vorza uses.

Hey guys I'm about to push the confirm order button on a flux hp and I am curious what kind of 2s lipos y'all recommend! I've got a baja 5sc but I'm new to electric!

I would recommend at LEAST 30C and 4000mha packs, i have some 25C 5000mha's and they're blown away by my 40C 4000mha's. Also keep in mind where your wire leads exit, you can't get a pack that exits straight up off the top, they should be side mounted, or the low profile top mounted terminals. Also you'll need to install a female deans plug if not already equipped on your pack.
