Yeah the guy at my local hobby shop told me when I bought it told me to hold off because the v5 is really beefed up from previous versionsWondering the same thing. It’s an upgrade I keep avoiding because I have never damaged a plastic one. But I’m curious to know if they remove any front end slop.
Not sure if the steering rack changed, don’t think so.Yeah the guy at my local hobby shop told me when I bought it told me to hold off because the v5 is really beefed up from previous versions
IMHO, the main advantage of the HR hubs is that the inner bearings are oversized so they last way much longer. Yet many guys prefer the stock plastic for flexibility. Even some of the hardcore YT bashers.Just curious on hot racing steering blocks for kraton v5 big differance of not worth it?
I find it strange that the current Arrma front hubs don't break as they used to. Maybe they changed the composite plastic . Who knows. I used to pop balls clean out no cracks, and sometimes they would split when popped. Happened frequently back then. Maybe 3-4 years ago. I always thought when the weather is hot out they pop easier? But now that I think of it the stockers seem stronger these days. IDK. Maybe my driving got better. I always stayed with the stock replacements. They are cheap enough. I would only consider the HR alloy for the larger inner bearings myself.I ordered a set of the 7075 vitavon hubs for the price, definitely curious whether they take out any slop. I have yet to break any hubs or pull a ball on my v5 after numerous cartwheels , kind of impressed actually. The hub was the first plastic to break on my v1.
I'm with ya, hubs used to suck more a while back. Maybe they did change something.I find it strange that the current Arrma front hubs don't break as they used to.
