    Thank you, appreciate the honest review!
    Can you do a review on tire tuning discs?
    Akers has some that I'm looking at, they are .125", so not super thick.
    Wondering how they would do with printed inserts.
    Also, install them toward the inside of rig or outside.
    Thank you!

    • @2fmrc
      @2fmrc  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @@MrsRabbit8 I ran some tuning rings a couple years ago that were basically never released or only available for a tiny bit. They were made by the guys who made the ox motor. They worked ok for a couple tires but with the printed foams that have came along those usually worked better. I may have to try the ones from Akers. I usually ran them on the outside of the tire to help support the outer edge on turns etc.

    • @MrsRabbit8
      @MrsRabbit8 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@2fmrc auh, okay cool.
      The ones from Akers are thinner, which is probably better.
      The printed inserts, like Flubberz, may or may not be good, that's what I'm curious about.
      Also, changing up the tuning disc size, what difference? That's a fine tuning thing i guess.
      They have 48mm, 54mm, and 56mm.
      I may try them all on a 62mm tire to test it, as this would give different results.
      Tire size and specific tire model would also apply as they have different sizewalls...
      There is a YT channel that put some on the inside and still had the support while maintaining outside wall conforming.
      But i think this could also be achieved by playing with the size of the tuning discs.

      Like Matt said I run the Akers ones on the outside of a few tires I haven’t stuffed with slymeballs yet. To help when turning. But the best bet In my opinion is flubber stufferz

      @@nathanross5406 okay thank you, i just ordered some flubberz.
      I have tried to keep the weight lower, but my build is going to be around 450g, maybe more.
      How do those Flubz do with heavier rigs? No need for more side support i assume?
      Was curious is the tuning discs would help or mess up the function of the flubz.

    Give that Ecopower a chance. Try it on direct power. It made a huge difference in my SCX24 (I suspect the stock receiver didn't like the power draw from the servo), but that's just my own experience.

    Very strange release from axial & eco power. Why would axial post these as like the official recomended budget upgrade for the 24 on Facebook??? get the set of 4 emaxes for $15 and call it done. This truck drives like a toy compared to the new FMS. I used to be a die hard axial fan but the micro releases, or lack of em are starting to make me annoyed.
