I was really surprised at the quality of the GPM’s when I got them. They are definitely more robust than the stockers. Going from a 4mm to a 6mm shaft could certainly help with “bent shock shaft syndrome.” I’m running those crazy stiff Redondo Beach springs on them with 80k fluid and they’re holding up great. Of course my street bashers don’t get sent skyward, either.Not going to find anything better than the stock shocks. The Aliexpress and GPM shocks are not going to be an improvement over the stock ones.
Also, make sure that you haven’t eliminated chassis slap on landings. The guys that do this will never be able to keep shocks, shock standoffs, towers, etc. intact. A bit of chassis slap is a good thing, as it prevents all of that force from slamming the components upstream.does anyone know the beffiest shock setup i can get for my outcast 6s i keep bending the stock shafts and the plastic rings that hold the shaft in place keep ovalising. thanks !
Good point, chassis "slap" is a must for big air jumping. Too much force is exerted for the shafts or rod ends to stop the travel. Also why some type of padding under the esc such as VHB tape or similar is a good idea, even with the ESC mounted by screws.I was really surprised at the quality of the GPM’s when I got them.
