The Losi Zombie Max tires are very soft also, when these type of soft compound tires are properly "belted" with nylon packing tape they don't look like pizza cutters and work very well.

loving the body! how is your motor coping? are you using stock gearing, cause i found that i had to return to the normal 20/44 when i installed my DB-17. I think it was because i am more on throttle now compared to the wheelie king it was before...

Wich I could say but between busy, rain and just having for some unknown reason a difficult time getting the rx installed how I wanted it hasnt been ran yet :(
Just been having stupid stuff go wrong, like cutting the rx lead on the esc lol.
Really big hassle has been trying to figure a way to mount the gopro cam, one of my mods on my forum is gonna help me out make a metal plate to mount it but have to get some pics once hes done. Here is what im working on the rx, messy looking I know but it will work and the rx will snug as a bug in a rug lol.

Got to run this for the first time last weekend at the coast and man was it a blast but only having one lipo it didnt last long so a couple more lipos are in order and a better charger that doesnt take 3hrs to charge a 4s lipo!
the 2nd clip is onboard and the savage shows about half way through, my buddy met us there with his wheely king.

I love it over stock, it handles soo much better now. I could gun it and it would go and not just flip over all the time, worth every penny :yipi:
