The only problems I have had with the slipper was on the truck, using the AE White pads. The XF Plates help a lot. On the buggy I have never needed more than the AE slipper spring but the truck being heavier needs more spring with the newer white pads. The silver spring from the old losi Hydra kit works nicely. Also, after every few runs you can clean the pads up with a green scotch-brite pad or fine grit sandpaper.
If you can find a set of the old brown slipper pads they work much better. Unfortunately they are the same stock number as the new version so not so easy to find. AE is suppose to release a new compound soon that will be similar if not the same as the old compound.
DMS spur gears are great, I won't run anything else now that I have gotten my hands on them.
