A guy in Oregon makes worm drive with outrunners on them, a worm drive clod of sorts. They are $400 for a set of axles, but super nice full metal.


Open diffs really help in some situations. Locked diffs are really only needed when a wheel lifts off the ground. If all wheels maintain traction then turning is much tighter with at least a front open diff. Just like having dig, a selectable diff is very useful and makes the rig more maneuverable. If I had to choose one option, I would go for dig first probably. But if I had the choice I would take a remote front diff locker and front dig too. Now we are talking about 4 channel radios.


Losi really hit a home run with this one, it looks pretty dang awesome all around.
