I like my XXX Hybrid, which is very close to CR spec and will be getting all CR bits next week ready for the National.

It's a bit of a half way house for me. I never liked how loose the B4 back end felt, and how it would suddenly jump 3 inches off line in the middle of a corner for no reason. When I tried my BK2 at Batley the back end was planted, but the thing didn't steer enough. The Hybrid (CR) retains a planted back end but with more steering, just what I wanted.

I have also come to the conclusion that for a long time I have had too much steering, now I'm dialing it out a little I'm able to drive harder and more consistant (both 2 and 4wd). I just need to drive even harder now! :eek:

I am different, I much prefered the way the Blade went on a flat grass track, it just went to peices on a rutted track. My experience of Losi was with an original XX which would snap hub carriers for just no apparent reason.

I got a BK2, and it seems to have the same 'billion' settings as the XX, which when you aren't racing regular, is just to much to learn.

this is were the xxx cr is different it does have plenty of settings, but not so many as to run u up your own backside, and boy does it work .
northy may have front and rear wishbones for sale also front rear shock mount come see me at teesadle

[DCM]

dud, I have seen the rear hubs, and man, there are nearly as many holes in one hub as the whole of the rear of the B4.....

I do think the BK2 is a quicker car, but I could never make it consistent and quick.... where as the B4... erm, it just goes.

Carl, why have you bought 3???

Graham, I assume you're still getting an X6 to try though?

I wonder how much of this is the rose tinted glasses that carl is wearing - new toy mania.

I've heard a few bad things, If you read rctech.net there are a few issues people are having - but this always happens on new cars.

didnt know chassis breaking/stripping happens on new cars
