XRAY - Model racing cars

I have now owned XB8 seven months and I'm allmost totally happy with it, after soft arms it's allmost unbreakable Totally best buggy ever

But what you guys think of XB8 receiver box?

I think it's *** :-) ***. Here's the reasons...

It's looking big, but it's not.
Battery is too close to the engine for two reasons, first of all battery gets too much temp and the shirk plastic and battery gets overheat.
Battery is very difficult to change.
Slot for battery is too short it's cutting wires if wires gomes out of the end of the battery.
Dust gets inside too easily, it's like vacuum cleaner...
If you have to change receiver or servo you have to unbuild hole box to get them propely in or out

I think the best receiver box is looking like this (it's GS CL-1 box)



Big, no extra walls inside, on piece top with hinge on the back edge. Easy to open and easy get stuff out and in. No hassle, no tricks...

Xray has made new parts amazingly fast (what is very good thing) but now I'll be waiting for new receiver box, please hurry, now more burned fingers

I must admit, the reciever box CAN be a pain at times when you're trying to make an emergency switch for batteries and I HAVE had the problem you mentioned of my receiver battery wire getting freyed because it's so tight.

You should mention this in the sticky thread for product improvements. Maybe they'll look into ti.

run a charge lead to the outside of car and charge it when u go marshall... come back and u should be done
