good luck with those...unless you can find a way to make that car go when the bell looses more teeth than a OH hillybilly.

From what I have and heard the experience is that the RR C/B are harder.
One of my racing buddies bought that and the matching Spur and blew through those just as quick as the stock ones. It came down to the chassis flex and getting the KHZ rear brace fixed the blowing C/B problem. He runs a tighter mesh than I did and that is a small part of it as well. I myself have only blown one since I got the KHZ brace---things are lasting much longer now. I have stuck with the stock ones. HTH

i work at al's hobby shop and there are bout five of them in the losi bin.
i too had an issue with the clutch bell breakin but that was due to a crumby locktight job by the factory. my motor mounts loosened up and when i landed a jump a chuck of the clutch bell went flyin. i slapped a 16tooth in and re-locktightened the mounts and havent had a prob since. |
