Just a thought for if you have to polish something like that again, if you have a drill with a chuck big enough to hold onto the drive cups you can use it like a make shift lathe and sand it down evenly as it turns in the drill. Awesome work as always Joe just a tip that may help in the future.

@ExocagedRC 4 года назад

yeah I've done that before but the tekno outdrive wouldn't fit in my drill.

I run Tekno m6 shafts on my 2wd slash. I initially had a failure but after adjusting my Suspension travel to prevent binding they've performed excellent with 3s lipo power and 70+ mph top speed. They've lasted over 3yrs of weekend bashing and speedruns. I like them alot.

They should all be built like a x maxx. So easy to work on😃

@AllenBePro 3 года назад

Got a Lasernut for the 15 year old for Christmas. Haven't been able to get a full run....far short of it without snapping axles. 4 shafts so far. Ordering the Techno now. Thanks.

@jamesklingensmith2711 2 года назад

Same axles used on the scte or the scbe or any of the tenacity line. They are all the same platform and share most of the parts. The platform started as the Losi 8ight. The losi 8ight axle stubs should fit to allow for 17mm hex wheels.

@barharborbasher249 4 года назад

Thanks for the honesty 🙌 I almost bought one yesterday for my son and I’d be pretty ugly if it blew a axle first drive out...

This is the best channel for Lasernut woes. Cheers! I love the idea of modding and ingenuity opposed to shelving a potentially great vehicle. Hopefully they make upgrade or replacement parts that fix existing problems.

Just got these Tenko shafts and installing this weekend so thanks for the install tips. Also have a Reefs 500 RAW servo with V2 HD horn and Exotek HD Steering set going in so hopefully that will cure the steering issues. Cheers!

@rcpete7055 4 года назад

I can't believe LOSI have put this out with the weak axle issue it's really pied me off.. I really don't want to run mine until I've got some replacement shafts.. Great Video Exo👍💯

@vrswiss 4 года назад

I think the heavier diff fluid probably isn't helping your turning much. I'm not finding the steering too bad in mine after cranking the servo saver all the way tight. I also mounted a DB pro wing and mount on mine and like it a lot better. Looks better and seems to handle better, even thought it's lighter in the rear. It does correct better in the air now though.

@ExocagedRC 4 года назад

that diff oil isn't hurting or making anything better at the tires, I've been reading the stock servo needs to go to the trash bin, I have a raw500 on the way for it.

@daver18qc 4 года назад

Hope Losi won't discontinue that after a year and leave everybody searching for parts on ebay like they so often do.

@ExocagedRC 4 года назад

We will see.

@PhilBender612 4 года назад

If you dont have access to a lathe, I have used a drill in past to turn down parts like a drive cup. Much more accurate in getting it to the correct size then to just sand blindly by hand.

@ExocagedRC 4 года назад

yeah I've done that too, issue here was the drive cup was too large to fit my drill.

@PopExpo 4 года назад

Damn, nice polish job. That looks factory fresh.

Rc tires are great jack stands I use them all of the time I even use old Tamia tires for storage

@old-rcplane-phart 4 года назад

Exo, I'm thinking the stock servo COULD be weak AF. Especially, since almost all rtr's have low grade electronics. The spektrum esc, IS an imitation hobbywing. Least the hobbywing program box DOES work flawlessly.

@ExocagedRC 4 года назад

awesome I'll be using that to set it up better.

@@ExocagedRC please make a video on that, i also have one and would like to know how to use it with this esc on my db pro

@locomotive282 4 года назад

Exotek makes an aluminum steering assembly for the Tenacity Line. The TLR SCTE 3.0 will not fit right because it is standard instead of metric. You should update the ESC firmware really made a difference for me.

@edwenger7897 4 года назад

locomotive282, how do you update the ESC firmware?

@locomotive282 4 года назад

Ed Wenger You need the Hobbywing USB programmer to connect to the computer. Than you run spektrums software to update. Spektrum sells a usb programmer but most of us already have the hobbywing one.

@paulschryer8308 4 года назад

Hi Exo, thanks for another good video. From my experience, next time you could do this: take your cylindrical part & fit it to a drill, while spinning in the drill of choice, hold the sand paper on the rotating part. 😉 It is a lot easier, even with basic electric tools. Just trying to help & save your hand wear & tear ! -Keep it rollin' !! RC ALL THE WAY.

@ExocagedRC 4 года назад

it wouldn't fit in my drill, I tried

@timvanasen6711 4 года назад

Hi Joe I haven't had axel issues but I did replace the servo, that wet sand was messy 😎👍

@ExocagedRC 4 года назад

@mattm1841 4 года назад

I had the same problems and then some.. Rx doa, Right rear wheel wasn't attached and the nut had fallen off in the box.. The rear body swing arm/ sway bar wasnt attached and no screw found so it looks like it left the factory missing this screw. I had 1 of the front leds in the fog light doa and EVERY screw holding the steering/front end in was 4 or so full turns from being tight.. Then stripped out a wheel after i swapped in some nyloc nuts and broke the front right drive shaft on the 2nd battery. Iv had 8 RTR cars and this has been the worst out of the box experience iv every had with RC's. Worst part is the car is great when it works and i want it to work!! Actually no the worst part is they said they would cover and fix everything and then sent me an email saying all but the fog light is on back order with time line of them coming in as the next batch coming in is more or less called for already -_-.

Wow! 4s is bad ass! can't wait to see this thing with Reefs servo! you must have had 5lbs of sand stuck to that car at the end! Tekno mod is bad ass! Losi needs to pay attention to this mod and "make something better"

@krazy88korean 3 года назад

I think the vehicle length paired with the limited throw of the steering limits the Lasernuts turning radius.

@theclaxton 4 года назад

Great tip! Curious what servo you put in it. I'd be interested in both a sub $50 option and ~$100 option.

@ExocagedRC 4 года назад

Sub $50 hmm that would be a difficult one, maybe a savox 1268? I'll be putting in a raw500, love those servos!

How did you manage to break the dogbones? Losi steel is usually bulletproof. Did they snap? I've built a few Losi kits and have a few other Losi rigs, I find them really enjoyable to work on

They did not upgrade the driveline for the bigger tires or more power, they are a well known issue with these vehicles.
