hehehe...cheap to replace?  that's depend on indi. pocket size

care to share your method?

I do soak my bearings in zippo liquid for cleaning, then spray with SC 99 and apply some singer oil to it (don't know any cheap lubricant yet - newbies )

I would accept it as a substance to clean metal.
But most people just follow others, so they don't really understand the after effect.
To me, any moving parts especially metal/iron that makes contact needs to be lubricated to ensure its lifespan.
Zippo liquid cleans bearings, but afterwards it also creates friction and could wear out the ball bearing.
But I guess ball bearings are cheap to replace, so it doesn't matter to most people.

I just use Tamiya fluoropolymer compound. As long as the bearings are smooth and doesn't make sound when rotating, then it's good for me.
I know people likes to free-spin rollers and see how long the spin could last, but on track it doesn't really make any difference because the weight of the car and drag from the motor, and the overall setup like roller size/positioning has more effect.

most ball bearing come with protective grease to prevent it rush, so new bearing usually we will clean it with zippo or contact cleaner to wash out the grease, the grease is good for industrail usage but not for speed purpose like mini 4wd.

after cleanning, we will drip some bearing oil, this is important not just the lifespend of the bearing, but it will take more load, and spin faster when it come with force.

color chassis quality is different, it's softer compare normal from the box.

MS used to have color chassis too, it show you are still new~~it come 2 in 1 pack...full chassis(center+nose and parts).

MS is more upgradeable, and more fun... as for me MA is easy as MS, but the launching speed is a bit slower due to it weight.

  if it's softer, will it tend to easily break?

I'm getting myself the white MS chassis

it depend on your setting, S2's softness and elasticity let it become the best jump car chassis in town.

yes it's more easy to break...

Want to share, my Dyna Hawk GX.. 



btw, anyone are doing trimmer services? i got some tire for trim..

want a challenge ar ? use super fm then .. XD

by the way, WTA About Wheel Types

Carbon wheels are stronger and lighter compared to normal (stock) plastic wheels. right?

But what about Aluminium wheels? what are their specs and where do they stand? really am curious    are they stronger and lighter compared to carbon ones? because they sure are expensive, selling at 35SGD per set (4 wheels)
carbon wheels are like RM 33 a pack for a set of 3 (12 wheels) haha

carbon wheel is harder, but it's heavy compare to normal stock plastic(PP) wheel. and it more likely to broken compare to normal plastic due to it less elasticity...

wow Dasa! you got stock ah? are you selling them?    local retailers dont have it. HLJ pun takda la these colourful MS Chassis 

so carbon wheels are actually not a worthy upgrade then? 
they cost more, weighs more, easier to break...

agree!!
