Using this box for my MBX7R. Wasn't an exact fit. Box seems a bit under sized for 8th scale. Rear of the box mount is very springy. Sometimes it sticks if you don't push straight down to start. Had to be rewired to fit my lipo of choice. Perfect starts every time once setup correctly. Movable stops will need to be reset every once in a while as they will eventually move on you. Glad no wheel shimming was needed like other boxes. I don't think the wheel can be shimmed higher. Overall it's a good starter box.
I was not happy with the bumbers or the one motor starter. It was hard to use and not very reliable.
Very durable starter box, accidentally drove over this box with my van and it still works, with the exception of a few broken pieces...
the box is very unstable, the bumpers move a lot and there to be constantly configuring it not highly recommended
I just want know how associated can make a starter that cannot be setup for there own truggy ???
Reviewers give this starter box mixed ratings, averaging around 3 out of 5. Several report it fits their chassis well and starts reliably once set up, while others say it is undersized for 1/8 scale, awkward to configure, or fits poorly. Recurring complaints include movable stops or bumpers that shift and need resetting, wires that are too long, and a switch mount that some find fragile. One reviewer reports durability after the box was run over by a vehicle. Fit and setup experiences vary by chassis, so the box suits some builds better than others.
