No there is not to my knowledge and that wouldn't help your issue. You also failed to mention to us that your driving the Flux in near 0 temperature conditions and snow. Were you not aware that colder temps can make plastic and even metal more brittle and more likely to crack and break vs regular room temperatures? I think that combined with the stress induced of running your Flux 6S is the cause of your problems. These trucks were never designed to handle those type of running conditions.

He has ignored every question regarding drivng style/conditions - which makes me suspect that the cause of the failures is user induced. If in fact he is running it at 0 degrees F on 6S, then yes, that is the cause of the problems. I would also bet that the traxxas vehicles he quoted would never hold up to half the power he is putting out with the flux.


Losi 8T 1.0, Savage Flux - XL style, LST XXL, Muggy, 3.3 E-Revo Conversion and sitting outside 425hp, 831 Tq Dodge Ram Turbo Diesel. It SMOKES

You wonder what is going on.. I've have yet to hear of a diffcup failing. Mine are over a year old and are fine. The pins have worn them a bit, but never cracking them. Ran it in the snow too, but then again, I was not out to murder it.
