Great video of explaining the issues. Ive had the x elite and recently a fully optioned x2.0. I came to a point that i just got fed up with it and sold it to get the mp10tki3. All of my problems went away
Wanted to pop back in and say a huge THANK YOU!! I cannot explain how much better the car is with the MP10 hubs. If your on the fence about doing this mod just DO IT you won't believe the difference.
I know it's been awhile since you posted, but just wanted to reply with a Thank you for the feedback. It's night and day, offset is soo important especially in the rear. It dictates soo much on how the car will handle.
I tried this on my losi eight xe elite using the Kyosho mp9 evo v2 hubs. The hubs are plastic but look identical to the Kyosho aluminum hubs in this video. Taking it to the track tomorrow. I’ll see how it goes. Hopefully the mp9 hubs are the same if not I’ll buy the mp10 hubs and try it.
Do you make the plates on the 8ight x 2.0 buggy? Also the carbon shock towers? If so, do you make them for purchase? I am very interested in buying all of it.
Will running wide hexes in the rear and regular hexes in the front correct some of this oversteer? How would this compare to just going with the Kyosho hubs?
No, the offset is to far off that the Kyosho hubs is really the only way to go. You do the Kyosho hub mod, with the LIT blocks it is night and day difference.
I don't run the 2.0 anymore, but I ran the APEXX engineering 1.0 rear hubs on it, without having to drill the arms since the pivot is narrower than the 1.0.
Hey thank you for the great true video ! I have the xe elite Leo buggy and have the same problems ... have you some parts number for the Kyosho solution ? because I do lot of set work but nothing happens and help !
Hmm how can I explain it. Offset is the distance from the center of the contact patch aka center of the wheel from the hinge pin. It can either be positive or negative.
@@amrservos ok thank you but i have a question: if the CVDs and rear arms lenght still the same with or without the mod, how can the distance front center of the wheel to the hinge pin can influence de handling of the car? Maybe Is a suspension geometry factor that improve the traction during a turn? I mean the wheel still in the same position and we have same distance wheel to wheel
It's not perfect, but TLR nut huggers won't admit it lol. I have been running TLR since I was teen, I love the brand, but not enough to turn a blinds eye. I am realist.

How do you like those rear hub plates for the 2.0 and where did you get them?
So whats the solution for the 2.0? Just wider hexes in rear? Ta

Yea, I noticed them too, lots of adjustability in them I see

On the 1.0 or 2.0?
@@amrservos 1.0.

@@amrservos Thank you.
Anybody tried the kyosho hubs on the new 8x 2.0?
So what hubs are you using on the 2.0 and does that bring it to 2mm or 0 off set

Link to the jig you can have 3d printed. www.dropbox.com/s/y9zgsg1pqee61sf/Drill-Jig-v3.stl?dl=0
Is the jig for drilling the a-arm? I have 8xe elite and don't have the second inside hole on the a arm.
big big thanks ;-) @@amrservos
i have the Kyosho steel turnbuckle set not from asso is this also good ?@@amrservos
@@bashmyracer784 As long as it is long enough, and works with the rod ends. Your good to go.
sorry im a newbie, can you explain me what is the offset?

@@stefanoparoli leverage on the contact patch basically. With Kyosho hub mod only universals are compatible.
@@amrservos thank you!
The 2.0 sux has so many issues
