    Internal spings! Brilliant. I bought a set of the AX24 shocks today to run my scx24 ultra4 printed build. I like the idea of not having rubber bands as my limiting straps.

    • @2fmrc
      @2fmrc  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah I’m not a big fan of the rubber bands either. Just don’t like the look. These shocks are really good with the internal springs. I’ll probably use them on a few builds!

      @@shawnrichardson118 I appreciate it! You lose the amount of travel that the spring fully compressed takes up so you lose a bit of travel. Not too noticeable since these trucks have so much travel anyway. I usually prefer a bit less flex so it worked out well for me.

      To be fair I always order at least 2 of everything 1/24. Much easier for testing. I just ended up with the other one because I wanted to get started on videos a bit sooner. I am enjoying them though. Like I’ve told others…. I wasn’t really excited about them in my “pre-run thoughts” video but since receiving mine I’m actually enjoying them. Maybe it’s just the newest toy but I’m having fun seeing what I can do with them! I don’t think I should lie and hide what I’m enjoying just to stick with the thoughts I had on something before I even had it in hand. Should i? Is that what people really want?

      I should probably not buy anything new and just stop making videos on new stuff entirely. Can’t buy just one when you plan to compare mods unless you wanna be like a lot of the others out there that just say a mod works great and you’re supposed to take their word for it. I like to show how each mod works vs stock so it’s much easier to have multiple trucks. Also if you watched my last video on them you’d hear that I actually kinda like them after getting mine. So if my opinion flips on something should I just lie about it and go on? I shouldn’t actually tell people how I feel about anything? Once I make a “pre run thoughts”video on it that should just be the only opinion I have on it? Pretend that I never make a mistake or change my mind? Or should I let my opinion on something be known and keep messing with what I’m enjoying? Maybe I should’ve asked you what to buy? Idk? What’s the answer here BUD? I had almost quit running my scx24s completely until this came out and it’s kinda brought me back to them. I’m kinda thankful for that honestly. Fact is it’s the new thing and we all love new toys!
