| Black Widow axles
I've got a few scalers going on and wanted to try some of the rc4wd black widow axles. For the guys who have them how are they working for you? Are they just cool looking or are they as good as they look? Thinking of putting them under my new Kaetwo Ftoy I just got from Brett running 2.2's http://rc4wdstore.com/2/product_info...467360a1078e2a http://rc4wdstore.com/2/product_info...467360a1078e2a |

I'm wondering about these as well. I'm getting ready to have R2J build me a custom rig and trying to decide the best axles to use... Anyone have these?

thanks for the info. How do they hold up to abuse? Are they as strong as axial axles? | |

| Like the stock Axials, they do not break that easy. Sure can manage a trail run, perhaps some flips and fall. But remember the XVD's are no way close to toughness of the v4 Bully XVD's. |

I posted on your build Now as far as them being available. I see most of the axles on RC4WD say they are sold out is that because they are made to order? Like the fronts don't say sold out just it takes something like 3-8 days to produce but rears say sold out.. It's either stick these babies on one of my rigs or have another custom chassis done Quote:
