Hi everyone, How's it going? Today i got to finally able to get a full mostly trouble free run out of my Outcast 8s EXB since installing the new receiver and binding it up to my new iXSR+. It ran great and it was a blast to drive still don't have a ramp wide enough to jump it off of but still had fun nonetheless.

My first rc car has been sitting on a shelf in the garage for about 3 years. Broke it out so the kids could chase it around the house lol

its a decent little 4x4 2s brushed rig. I think it was like $37 on aliexpress or something like that. Would definitely break it out more if it had any parts support at all

I've got 2 similar ones on the shelf, myself.
 
Another outing for my Arrma Outcast 8s EXB v1 this afternoon in the comfy 55 F (real feel) sunny weather. The only bad thing is i had to keep adjusting the front pillow balls in the front knuckles. I found my truck doesn't have o-rings in the adjuster nuts so that might be something i'll be ordering next month.

Today i got to run my current X-Maxx for a good over half an hour. This is before i take off the parts i want to save for my upcoming X-Maxx Ultimate project. Which i ordered the first part for it yesterday but i still need a few more like a new body, servo and motor since i might keep my Badlands MX43's and my Spektrum Firma 160 v2 ESC.

Today i got to run my Outcast 8s EXB v1 after i installed my new parts i got from Horizon Hobby for it. I had zero issues with the truck running today, no more pillow ball nuts backing out anymore. Also got a new receiver box seal for it and i used a bit of my super lube to keep it in place while i was installing it.

Always zero issues with horizon stuff 🤷‍♂️
I've mostly no issues, I did once have a Spektrum receiver go bad from my reversing the wires on one of the channels and i had a 22T 4.0 that some issues but other than that i've never had any issues with any of my Arrma's and Spektrum equipment. I hate to keep mentioning my new radio since i've been bragging about it so much and it's perfect for me so far. So much better than my old 4PM and RC8X.
