Switching alliances

[jsw123]

Having started 2 years ago with a second hand Losi 22 I'm considering a change. I'm hoping a B5M will be easier to drive, the 22 is a tank of a car and it's been great at some meetings but all in all I find it a bit twitchy.

How have other people found switching? Will most of my spares/nuts/screws become useless? Will it make a difference to a fairly talentless racer?

Stick with the Losi and treat it to the bellcrank upgrade. It removes all the twitchiness you are experiencing.

Interesting...and cheaper!

There's certainly plenty of choice out there,and plenty of other cars better than the 22. Personal preference really,go with what you like the look of. I've got a TM2v1,TCO2c Evo and a Durango 410. I'm sure as you been racing a while you'll have an idea what you like the look of.

Also, you could try the side guard weight set, this will smooth/calm the side to side movement too, and again cheaper than getting a whole new car.

simple get a kf

I ran a hobao h2, and it is very similar to the 22. swaped to a kf and gained about a lap more.

I'd say my 22 is anything other than twitchy to drive, generally find I want more entry and exit steering from the car.

Interesting ideas as always.
