Got a present in the mail today! I have been excited about this one. ;D Picked up a X Factory X-60 today with plenty of goodies on it. It is in great condition to boot! It looks to be made with a FT T4. It had aluminum bulks, and rear knuckles. Also has quick change hubs which I'm not crazy about. It also have the optional carbon front and rear towers from X-factory. I'm going to go toss some electrics in this bad boy and some oil in the shocks!
I have owned a few T-maxx's, an all aluminum Revo with a .26 picco (which was always broken), then an E-Revo brushless (which is the only one I miss). From there I moved the motor and esc over to a Losi 8t with the E conversion. Also I bought an Losi 8E buggy with a tekno conversion for a short time. All used stuff. I like to race a lot and there just isn't racing for the big stuff around. I like that I can share parts from my SC trucks with this little guy. Also 1/10 electric is much more reliable, there isn't nearly the same amount of down time or repairing as with 4x4 or 1/8 scale. 1/3 as many diffs, and half of every other moving part to break. I have to try to wear something out. Plus I am still using the set of (4) 8000mah 2s batteries that I got with my brushless revo.
well, me being the proud owner of many revo's(RARELY BROKEN) ;D i gotta say your poor revo was a victim of the all aluminum trend.i went all alum with one of my savages and now it just sits.anybody lookin for aluminum parts?
Nice,been thinking about doing this to my T4.1 for a while now. I just gotta see one go before I do it.
What I like about this (your) truck is the motor is mid-mounted instead of rear like many Traxxas 2WD vehicles. I am also looking forward to hearing how it runs...maybe a video also.
Thanks for the comments guys. Gp I will bring it out when ever that track work starts. I am headed to the dunes this weekend though. Gps I liked how it is mid engine too. The only other mid engine 1/10 I have seen is the new durango 1/10 buggy. They have a prototype with mid engine. What I really want is the new carbon fiber short course truck x factory has. Pretty spendy though. I picked this guy up on rctech for under $200.
Nice score,and I look forward to some track time. Don't forget losi is bringing out the 22t which can be wither or mid or rear motor.
Still working some kinks out. I ran it last night on my backyard track. I keep stripping the servo arms, I am using the stock ae plastic arms though. I may have to up to an aluminum arm and risk the servo. Or I guess I could stop hitting the walls :|
