If there is ever a rc Hall of Fame this guy has to be in there. He is one if the pioneer's that helped pave the way.

[@AdamDrake]

Thank you very much for the kind words. It's greatly appreciated!

[@dannyjolliff9703]

Adam I just wanted to take a moment to say that many racers owe you immense gratitude. In my two years of racing your videos have become priceless. So thank you, like many have said.

[@adamdrake8006]

Hello Danny, I greatly appreciate you taking the time to message me. I'm always happy to help! Thanks!!

I got the RC bug again after being out of it for 10 to 12 years.I busted out my old Mugen MBX4 XR. After a few race weekends I decided to get a bit more serious about set up. The oil in the diffs still looked good and there was zero signs of leakage after all those years in storage. I think next year it is time for a newer car as I think parts are to hard to get for the old XR4's :-)

[@adamdrake8006]

Hello, Very cool! Yes, it will be difficult to find MBX4 parts.

I also started getting the bug I had 2 boys and fell out of racing for 7 years I have an mBX7t Nitro and Plan on getting a new kit I'm just going to transfer all my electronics to the new kit when I get back into the Winter series it'll be worth it and cheaper in the long run , so go for bro!

[@mustakimkamaruzaman9715]

@@AdamDrake thanks..Maybe the setup diff oil for C hub & Pivot/Pillow hub is different right?.....im sure about it..maybe for Pillow hub will using heavy diff oil for front & center diff because the car too aggresive..also will oversteer a bit when exit corner..so heavy diff oil is the solution..maybe 10k-10k-5k or 12k-12k-8k..i dont know maybe around that because im not good in Pillow Hub buggy..but i will learn to drive it

[@mustakimkamaruzaman9715]

@@AdamDrake oh i forgot Mr.Drake..if i often usually drive in the track what setting diif oil can i use?..for C hub..because you also running C hub buggy before this ( LOSI )

Thanks for the useful info on diff and shock oils and changing. I just subbed your channel. 👍🏻✌🏻

[@AdamDrake]

Awesome, thank you!

[@insanehobbiesandrcs4606]

I remember back in the day when Adam used to rip up the tracks with his Losi 8.

[@AdamDrake]

Yes sir! Haha

[@i.p.outdoors3825]

For those that have AC trailer in the summer months. The temp difference in the trailer and track is quite a bit. How would you tackle this?

[@AdamDrake]

You should always make the changes and adjustments based on the outside temp and you should bleed your shocks outside as well.

[@i.p.outdoors3825]

@@AdamDrake Thanks for taking the time to respond, Adam. I will setup a canopy outside of my trailer.

[@royarsey5429]

[@MugenGermany1]

How often you chance the bearings?

[@AdamDrake]

It depends on the track conditions, but with the NMB bearings and the new Flash Point bearings, they can be cleaned and reused for a long time.

[@MugenGermany1]

Ok thanks :)
