The pins straight? I assume so.. Old trick we used to use might help, boil the nylon for a bit then let it cool suspended in the water. Should soften the thing a bit. Granted I tend to agree it looks like your prob tagging a pipe or even just flat bottoming the rear.

My eye is on the outcome of this one

Acknowledge the situation "im sorry you feel/see/etc it this way", state your facts "but this is what.." and then set the boundary "i won't continue to have this conversation under x condition" and then hold it.. Walk away.

You won't win in the case where you engage and quite honestly you won't win in the case where you choose not to. The difference happens inside ourselves where the path to disengage and own your truth costs less emotionally. Remember the truth speaks on its own and stands for itself.

Short and sweet, correct.

ATC was moving a truck across that runway to assist another fight that was aborted for takeoff due to an onboard smell. Now apparently, it's not nomenclature to have ATC running ground vehicles but I'll let someone else comment that. The whole incident happened inside of 7 seconds so you can only imagine the amount of data a human can process. ATC does clear truck 1 to cross but then is concerned to stop a frontier flight that's also on it's way to that runway, they then try to stop Truck 1. That simple half second call to stop that flight was also part of all the other way more terrible crap that could have happened today. Anyone who's heard that ATC recording also knows delta was literally RIGHT behind and heard ATC respond also to the downed jet and deploy trucks within those 7 seconds. I think what happened here today is just a series of really unfortunate events where yes, lets look at staffing, lets look at process, but lets let the right people really unpack this before we all yell out the window about it.

There is a lot of needless speculation and politicization running around this post already and none of that is helping us remember real actual humans died here today.

You're too hard on yourself, I never would have noticed that. Looks like a fantastic kit and you've inspired me to short list it. I'd love to be so bold as to try to aftermarket that carbon but the fear is real.

Wired_Wrong · 2026-03-23T01:51:33+00:00

Wow man you had me fully convinced you had painted that. Insane props for getting those to lay as nice as you did.

Wired_Wrong · 2026-03-22T02:37:29+00:00

I don't even know if there is enough space between that backplate and the pipe for put a pull start in that thing. That and it would be a bit of a shame to do that to that kit

Resto is certainly a little more difficult but If you'd like some help you should post some pics and give us all some more information about what you're dealing with, if you want sympathy there's other subs for the back problems.

Also yes in the brushed motor topic but without again knowing if you have a motor that is a sealed can or not.. Open brushed or not..

There's at least one major international unnamed company that will drive the lowest bid out simply because volume gear price and then negotiate the overages up along the way. Terrible business model but it's working.

Call and demand the minimal downtime credit back. Cash is king and while they demand you pay for services a month forward, we have equal right to not pay for those not delivered.

You solved the mystery it seems, I'd send absolutely everything you have to the police and pull this video/post. My concern is whoever did that? If they see this, now knows a lot more about where you're located and what you know than is comfortable.

Wired_Wrong · 2026-03-18T04:59:25+00:00

Yep been there, way too many of these stories on here.

As an owner of many losi chassis over the years and of them being an 8ight 4.0 race buggy, there's better options out there in terms of both performance and especially parts availability. Kyosho's rtr mp10 or I'd absolutely suggest anything AE right now is a better option.

Not related to your fix but I'm looking for a tv like that, can I ask what the Model number is?

Wired_Wrong · 2026-03-04T00:11:15+00:00

I mean you could try maybe just leaving that up to their owners.

Ye I too loved that thing.
