Default Axials with standard foam Vs Losi with Memory foam - bounce test

As a newbie I wondered if there really is a big deal with the memory foam that came with the Losi Comp Crawlers so I started messing around to see how they would react differently. This video shows it best. The controlled reactions of the memory foam would definately make you more stable, especially if you drop off a ledge or similar bouncy movement.



BTW I've heard some guys complain about the axial beadlocks being a pain. I found them very easy to use as long as the wheel is supported while you work on it. A 2.2/3.0 wheel from a slash works really well.

easiest way to mount any beadlock is by not taking thew rings off only loosen the screws and push the tire into the bead, i can do all 4 of my axial beadlocks in 10min. easy as taking a poo. but i have used a wheel before to but it takes twice as long.
