I have toyed with buying this from Ray because it is a sweet custom truck. But my buddies and I are working on our design using the Erevo tranny, so it would be silly for me to buy this. I've begged Ray to let me buy some of his spare parts that I need, but he wants to try and sell it all in one shot. (Look at me talking about him like he's not here, ha!). Ray: if u sell it, let me know to whom so I can see if he really needs all those parts!!)

I'd like to know who out there uses big tires with a big motor, like Ray does... And if they have diff probls too? I still say if you went to a 1515 and used low profile 40s tires like Bow Ties, it would solve the probl. Maybe just a tire swap alone would? I know that on this same set up, the bigger the tires, the more prone I was to blowing diffs. This tells me that the Losi diffs may not be able to handle it. Maybe the TiNi gears would help? I'm pretty sure it's the Losi diff or nothing right? You can't run anything else?

I'm almost done with my custom XXL chassis set up, Bro too, so, I guess I'll have to find out for myself and experiment with tires. Bro uses the Nova cups. I use the HD cups. Not sure if Ray used Nova cups or not. Ray?

Good luck buddy! Yer efforts were much admired!

Btw.. I too would love to own that flight simulator program! I've never messed with planes, but would like to someday.
