XRAY - Model racing cars

I think this has been brought up enough Mario. I sure hope you guys are working on a solution for this. The problem wasn't as prevailent with the harder arms but with these softer arms, it strips WAY to quickly.

I'm building my 2nd kit this weekend. Do you think some CA glue would hold the insert straight? I'm not planning on changing the caster inserts.

I have an opinion about TORSEN (TORque SENsing) Diff. In terms of differential usage in a car, which is to differentiate the rotation between two output shaft (Left & Right or Front & Rear), TORSEN is the best among other tipe of differential (Regular open differential, LSD (Limited Slip Differential), Electronic Assisted Diff, etc).

LSD is using friction plates to regulate the torque bias between each output shaft. It's really difficult to make smaller LSD as a copy to the real one. The current LSD that is available is different than the real LSD. BBF Tactyl II is actually using the idea of the real size diff, but I don't know how it perform.

Electronic assisted differential allow the system to electronically partially lock the the diff action or in some diff electronically thicken the fluid inside to alter the diff action. Almost impossible to make in our scale. In the future maybe, but I guess not in the current time. Also the regulation does not allow to have electronic system that assist stability contol.

So, I think TORSEN is still the best for the scale. It has mechanical cleverness but In my opinion some of TORSEN that is available nowadays should think a way for it's reliability.

In the past year while I'm still driving MP6, I really get the advantage of using TORSEN but as I said I have a complain for reliability.

I could not think of a better place than this.

Please make us a Hudy Steel turnbuckle wrench that will fit the large turnbuckles. The one you make for the 3mm is great, but we need a large one.

Make a wheel nut wrench out of the Hudy Steel.

Looks like an alum radio tray, center diff brace, and front upper plate on a car at the Euros.

Looks nice.

wheelnuts with left/right hand turn

Alloy servo mounts & optional alloy parts for the radio tray and upper front plate (rather than Carbon).

In my opinion, the XB8 is a superior car to anything that is out today. On top of that, Xray has provided top notch support and service!! You can't ask for much more then that.

I don't know of any other manufactuer who has such a great forum like this along with a virtual database for you to store and view setup sheets. And to top that off, I haven't broken a part on my XB8 in three race weekends. Bottom line....you get what you pay for.

Yes, no complain on quality, customer service, and such thing alike about Xray. You get what you paid for also correct, in certain way. On the other hand, why they are not number 1 in market share? most racer think differently? I'm still driving my xb8.
