One of the guys I bash with sends his DBXLE 2.0 without fear. Did a backflip last weekend! Had to be over 15‘ up to do that. Mine is still new to me so I’m more cautious. Have a XLX2/1100 combo in but about to take it apart to put in the Vitavon front and rear diff bulkheads and center transmission case. FYI, The smallest gear the Vitavon transmission will take is 18t. Learning from you and seeing how you are doing things. (I mounted my esc sideways like you did so I was happy to see you solve it the same way I did) Now I might order the Vitavon hubs after seeing your breakage. Thanks for this series, it’s coming at a perfect time for my build. Hurricane

[@fishnrc294]

I can’t even imagine I’m at 1:8 scale with a crawler/trail Rc. & it’s much heavier then my 1:10 scale ones. I would think the weight is what would make it break easier but it doesn’t matter how expensive or pretty they are you gotta use them & as they say shit happens. My guess is people without a clue probably think what an idiot he broke it again. We’ll ya you go out use it as it was intended & crap just breaks. Today I took my newest crawler out after going though & checking everything upgrading stuff & first run the rear drive shaft comes apart. I wouldn’t call it breaking because a pin & small spring came off so I just contacted the manufacturer with part #s & will be back on the rocks. But I know exactly where it came off & was putting it through its paces. Thankfully I had another Rc with me ready to go. Nice rig though. Keep taking them out & ya its a bummer when they break but the constant smile on my face makes it all worth it.

[@bachirbattache2997]

That was quick 😵‍💫 sorry for that, i changed my hubs right out of the box, VITAVON for rear are best, i would change the front assembly too, TLR parts are available everywhere 👍 hope to see it soon on track ….. next would be the diffs bearings, will not last long on dirt 🤷🏻‍♂️ steering is perfect 👍👍👍

Unless you landed on a big rock which it didn’t look like you did there’s no way this should of happened. I think anything manufactured from early 2019 until now has a high probability of quality control issues. And probably even some shotty engineering.

[@jdodds1023]

Hope all is well Earl. That landing needed to be leveled out my man. 30lb RC needs to land on all fours and you will see this buggy is just as durable as any 5B or 5T. Curious as to why you are driving with a 100$ controller? You have such wonderful builds !!!!!!! - U are selling yourself short my friend.... Its a great controller no doubt but ever since I got my Futaba 7pxr and saw how it transformed my RCs - especially my DBXLE & CenXT and my 1/8GT drag cars - It will be the last controller I buy for a looong time. I have two receivers in my trucks - one for if Im running with my son (Dx-5 pro) and the futaba for me. I just switch the plugs - ez.

[@earlmoorhead5555]

Can’t land every time perfect the rc really need to be strong but this rc seen some abuse so the refresh was due for its reliability 👍👍

[@williamoleary9330]

I have an all original LST and LST 2. They still look and run great. I don’t buy Losi anymore because they discontinue all their vehicles. I mean it’s their right to do so, but I don’t want to deal with it anymore. I stick to Arrma and Traxxas because in general they don’t.

Steering is out of wack, front wheels the top is leaning in and the back wheels one is leaning inward at the top and the other is leaning inward at the top...other than that its all good. Going to watch all good DBXLE videos. I just ordered the DX5c controller and the extra servo and links for the dual servo setup. Any tips? Im all ears....Thanx in Advance, Stay Safe.

I hate those heavy and very hard proline badlands 4.3. I tried them on my X-Maxx and it would break more often. Even with small jumps. I much prefer the duratrax lockups x 24mm belted tires. Softer, smaller and lighter. They do become unglued once in a while though. Great bash as usual bud.

Duratrax tire are terrible if you have the xlx2 1100kv motor setup. I kept blowing the glue off the rims on my set of duratrax tires. The Badlands belted i bought were perfect. Never had any issues with them even with 18 tooth pinion on motor going balls out.

E revo 2.0 is the most durable 1/8 scale (even if they call it 1/10) after aluminum brace and 85mm limiting straps I think it’s more durable than m2c full Kraton 6s. The issue with all the metal hop ups is added weight literally exploding the rear end of Kraton 6/8s (breaking suspension arms, bending shock rods, broken bulk heads, etc) but you need the metal to stop them from constantly breaking or bending the chassis so it always ends up being in breakage limbo

Rockracer,desret truck ,truggy, the real size ones dont go that high, an if they do they land one a down slope.
