    First Day of carnage.......

    Well the conversion is done. Flm chassis bulks rpm everywhere possible. Mamba system.
    And the broken parts list begins with ......
    Center dogbone, flm one was kinda weird. Was all split where they pressed in the pin, It snapped in the first ten minutes.
    Two toe links on the front. Luckily had a die and the leftover links from the rear.

    Didn't even get the batteries worn down and had broken these. Oh well, more stuff in the mail I guess.

    Flm should replace the broken dogbone. They replaced the front one on mine when the pin broke off on first run.

    The pins seemed really soft in them. After ten minutes of just rolling around the parking lot they were worn quite a bit. I just ordered the traxxas cv centers.

    The dogbones on my flm 10900 chassis are 107mm rear and 66mm front center pin to center pin. I think they might have changed them a little at some point in time.
