RE: FUEL or Electric??

First of all I like and own both, nitro and brushless bugs. The pure and simple truth is that electric power has surpassed nitro power. Right now there is only a narrow margin between the two but the...

RE: Mini Ultra Stick

With my PNP using the stock 10 7 prop I was only getting about 10 minutes flight time and the ESC and battery would get a little warm. I tried a Master Airscrew 10 6 and it doubled my flight time,...

RE: Mini Ultra Stick

Bought a PNP MUS today and was wondering if anyone had issues with the speed control. I usually go with Castle speed controls but couldn't pass up a good deal on this PNP. Did a search but didn't...

RE: Radio Dillema Futaba 3PKs 2.4 vs. Spektrum DX3r

I couldn't fix glitching on my Fasst system. I would strongly recommend the 3PKS + Spektrum. I went with M11 + Spektrum.

RE: Losi 8ight 2.0 or Mugen MBX-6?

I had a chance to drive the 2.0 today and it suits my driving style better than the MBX6. I had a big long post going into the differences but my damn computer shut off and I don't feel like...

RE: Age and What You Rip With??

At 45 I'm on the older side of this thread, but one of the good things about getting older is having no budget. MBX6, MBX5r, XXXT MF2, B44, M11 Spektrum and of course all the chargers, lipo's,...

RE: Losi 8ight 2.0 or Mugen MBX-6?

I've got the MBX6 and the 5R before it. After watching the 2.0 8ights at my track I had to buy one, there's nothing twitchy about what I saw. The 8ight 2.0 just moved different. The new 8ight looked...

It is assembled perfectly, and it has a slight bind with the screw tightened. I don't want anyone to think I'm complaining about anything on this bug. It...

RE: Building the MBX-6

On my car if you tighten the screw on top of the left steering post it binds. I'm having the same problem as walawalastore posted. I need to look at it more closely to see if wala's method will...

RE: Building the MBX-6

I did encounter this. I just left the screw a little loose with some threadlock. I'll look at it again and maybe take a little off the top of the steering arm.

RE: Proline V3 tires, anybody tried them?

Finally tried the V3's. They were definitely more stable, but Bowties are the wrong tire for my track so it's hard to get an accurate read. So far I like them.

RE: Proline V3 tires, anybody tried them?

I just ordered some from Carolina RC. I got the Bowtie M3.

I wonder if the V3's are legal to race?

Proline V3 tires, anybody tried them?

Proline has a new width tire and rim, the V3. It says they are 4.6mm wider than normal and is offered in 2 treads, the Revolver and Bowties. Anyone tried them?

RE: M11...DSS or Spektrum?

Carolina rc has the M11 DSS for $349.99 and M11 Spektrum $399.99. These prices include the radio. Aparently they discount it if you buy their DSS instead of Spektrum. E-bay had them both for cheaper.

M11...DSS or Spektrum?

I'm thinking about trying the M11. Are there any differences between the DSS and Spektrum modules? They appear to be the same except the Spektrum is $50 more.

RE: Futaba 3PM Faast glitch

I've been doing this awhile and never had a problem with any other receiver. Maybe the Futaba doesn't handle the vibration as well. I've got it mounted with 2 layers of foam tape just the same as any...
