Tires - 04.30.2005, 11:48 AM

I am just buck from driving the maxx. Everything went fine, no broken parts at all.

Just one thing that drives me crazy, the tires wont stay on the aloy rims.... each time when I drive (after 2 or 3 Battery packs) I have to glue the tires on the rims again. I already use tire glue (and today I tried another superglue) without success

Any help on that??

You will definately need to scuff the rims for best results. Losi tire glue is the best I have used. A rough finish and the Losi glue should hold them on there.

Found the Perfect glue - 05.16.2005, 12:48 PM

This black superglue, is from loctite.
It is especially to glue rubber to alloy, and works awesome. I tried all available superglues for tires, but none of them is as good as this one.

By the way my todays results...

The Maxx is unbelievable powerful... but next week I will built in two additional batteries to a total then of 18, to see what will happen...:D

Check the pics what happened today
I bend the complete rear right side, including the tower, the lower- and the upper arm. The good thing, the integy bulkheads are still O.K.

As you can see I built a new wheelie bar, this one now works very well.
