my dad wants to decommission this buggy liao
user posted image

too much problems. uncontrollable. servo cant center. front diff seems to be having some problems. new spur didn't even last a week, sand destroyed it. (bear in mind, it is sealed nicely.) front dogbones bend. and bend. front shock towers, bend. shocks dont offer any form of dampening at all.

no offence, but these HSPs are best left in brushed form, and played with extreme care. Also, the terrain you're playing on must be a prepared surface, not an empty land. small stones got stuck at various spots of the car. shakehead.gif

some problems are because of the brushless conversion, others are simply because of the design fault. the chassis design was never meant for offroad. there's too many holes to invite sand/stones into critical spots. if you insist on going offroad, make sure its a prepared surface with little to no stones. this car had went through the necessary work to keep sand out, but the sand still found ways to annoy me sleep.gif

conclusion, stay away from these HSP 1/10 EP cars. if you insists on this, play it at more gentle places, and keep it in brushed form. the nitro 1/8 is much more durable though.

mine was:

1- my XSTR Front shock tower bend, a little hammering, straighten it back but not perfect.
2- front right shock absorber bend, dunno why. left it as it is cz it unrepairable.
3- servo can't center, have to trim it every time i want to bash it.
4- front right dog bone often come out from the wheel axle when i perform hard turn. had a hard crash before, front link and dog bone all tercabut from the lower arm and wheel.

It is worth it to upgrade to all aluminum component?
- alu front & rear lower arm,
- alu streering hub
- alu rear hub
- alu shock absorber
*
Bro,

Alu parts are strictly for looks only. Parts like lower arm etc are better in plastic, so that they can flex upon impact.

Also, I'm very surprised at the amount of problems you're having now. Still in brushed form, right? Shock absorber can bend back. Servo? My bronto servo got some weird problems, XSTR servo cant center. My bronto also got dogbone problems like yours. rclxub.gif

Save up for a better truck bro icon_idea.gif

Team Losi Racing (TLR) have just rleased detail of their upcoming 22SCT. Based on the 22 buggy, this truck should bring some welcome competition to the Kyoshos and Associateds. This could be the final key in a 2wd SCT evolution along with Durangos plans for a similar truck.

XSTR was not built for brushless power.

This one brushless power ready.

Still need to fix up some small issues, but its pretty durable.
