She is a Losi 22X-4 Elite. In the UK they retail for around £580, but it has titanium turnbuckles, carbon fibre towers and mounts, centre diff and slipper, domed alloy shock caps, alloy Ackerman plate, adjustable rear gearbox height, alloy hub carriers, alloy hubs - the list goes on and on.

It's a lovely little rig. I love 1/10th buggy racing. 👍

Nice! That's going to be a sweet road car! Does it come that way or did someone make it how you like? I like when someone does the hard work for me 😆 😂 though I'm changing that as I get back into RC. I was looking at this thang!! https://www.hobao-usa.com/product/hb-mtxe-hyper-mtx-monster-truck-arr/ it will be my First Kit if I drop the hammer! Anyone have it? Any thoughts? Good bad?

That Hobao MT will be awesome, no doubt. I really like Hobao stuff - very underrated. Their buggies were excellent too. Very durable and in the hands of 2 Team CML drivers I used to race with (and against) - very fast, too.

I picked up the Losi on eBay. It was too good to pass up. It's immaculate. No marks. No wear.

Obviously I will go through the car to see if there's anything that needs threadlock or tweaking, but it looks like a pro build to me. No idea why he passed it up.

Bargain.

My Torox ESC cost more. 🤷

so what will happen if I move my shock to the lower position? Stiffer, higher clearance, loss of control on power in turns? Pros/cons? Again I enjoy off road dirt roads handmade trails through the woods. Ripping flat land dirt roads drifting turns and ripping up hills doing climbs no serious air want here yet lol. I don't have my wings for these bad boys yet 🤣🫡🫡

Also I'm sitting here waiting for FEDEX!!!
TODAYS THE DAY KRONOS XTR NEEDS MY LOVE! ITS PROBABLY SO COLD IN THAT DELIVERY TRUCK 🥶🥶 LOL

If you move your shock inwards at the top mount, this essentially makes your suspension slightly more progressive and should reduce grip roll on higher traction surfaces. It may also lower the ride height and require more preload to compensate.

They just a roller not a kit I think you just need add electronics not actually build it. Jason Perrin on YouTube had/has one got quite a few vids on it, they look like a proper rig almost like a real truck with ladder frame chassis being all metal, nice 👍

Can anyone tell me what's wrong with Team Corally, that alot of RC sites/apps and thingys have every other rc brand domestically produced or not.....yet no TC 😦😧😨😰😥😱😱😱 WTF!
I'm aware being in the states TC is over the pond though correct me if I'm wrong but TC has the basher scene by the balls..horns..family jewels...whatever you call em!! My opinion of course but ya what's equal to or better built then the kagama 6s!? I'm saving my pennies for the 1/5 Outcast but even though I'd do naughty things to get that truck, I have this feeling TC will drop a 1/5 the second after I click buy lol....

A 1/5 TEAM CORALLY BASHER..... HMMMMM😳😳😳🤤🤤🤤🤤

True lol. I'll admit on here that I'm an extremely patient person. I've won a fight just by being patient lol. When it comes to RC...for some reason I can't find a shred of patience whatsoever ahah. It's bad lol. So the closer to RTR the better for me as of now. When my life calms down I'm sure I'll find my zen!

The re-birth of Corally - with it's RTR basher rigs - was received with skepticism by a lot of people, including some influencers on YT. Purely because they were all too young/inexperienced to know who they were. 'Clones of Arrma'. Makes me laugh because Arrma to me are a comparitively new, young company formed from Durango.

It seemed totally lost on them that Corally were at one time World Champions in 1/12th scale, Touring cars etc and just assumed that they were another cheap and cheerful brand churning out 💩

Personally, I found their stuff to be excellent. There's no doubting the heritage of the RC racing brand that I believe originated from Holland, now operating out from Belgium.

Where are they made? Well bits and pieces of them seem to be made in Italy, Switzerland and Taiwan - so designed in Belgium, made from produce from more than 1 country! 😅

Why don't shops stock them? Good question - they should.

Thankfully their website is pretty good - buy direct. 👍

There's a good thread here:

Corally back in the day...

Nice work on this one! Just fit the GC wheelie bar to my Kagama. How has it held up? Still going strong? A little iffy on the connection to the shock tower, had any problems there? Looks like it could possibly rip right off with a bad landing on the wing. Considering some strengthening before maiden voyage. Lemme know when able, TIA!
 
If you’ve had an issue with your diff it might have been caused by flex in the bulkhead/gearbox case check it for cracks. I haven’t used adu bulkheads or diff cases so I can’t comment on those but used both vitavon & corally bulkheads. The vitavon are more fancy but a little heavier than corally, fit & finish is slightly better on corally but it’s not that vitavon a bad fit or anything just corally higher level. Diff cases I think EVR are best I’ve used even better than corally. I’ve arrma gpm arrma centre diff in my build apparently they have best drive cups for arrma compared to others
