    Motor upgrades for Boost

    Hey @Aiden you've mentioned that you installed the HPI Firebolt 15T brushed motor in your Boost. I'm going to assume that you've not had any issues with the ESC overheating or otherwise suffering the additional load of the 15T motor?

    Boost / AMP DB parts swap possible?

    I am looking to get a buggy as a first RC for my 5 year old. He likes the buggies over any of the trucks and I ended up looking at the AMP Dune Buggy and the Boost. ECX seems to have the durability I want, and the 20T motor will keep speeds down for him to learn on. Problem is, the two cars have...

    Rollin' on 2.2s, seriously cheap aftermarket 5-spokes.

    Hi all, I've been after some new wheels for the ECX Boost. I really like the stock wheels and they look great with the spoiler off, you get that sprintcar kind of look. But after seeing the Bandit VXL setup posted over at that other ECX forum, I was inspired to try a 5-spoke upgrade for my...

    Alternate springs for ECX shocks?

    Hey all, In setting up my Boost, I've discovered that the springs on the front are a little bit too strong. I can't achieve the desired suspension sag even without ANY spring preload adjustment. Anyone here every try a different brand of spring in their ECX shocks? (Specifically the front in...

    Stock body clear windows

    So I tried looking around for a way to strip the paint off the windows from my stock boost/amp body. And the only thing that kept coming up is to use dot 4 brake fluid to strip the paint off. For some reason this didn't work for me. I ended up just getting some fine sandpaper(water and soap) and...

    Large-format 11x17 Boost parts diagram and list - PDF

    I did a quick-n-dirty reformat of the Boost exploded parts diagram and list. I pulled the pages from the manual (PDF available from ECX) and scaled the relevant pages to fit on a 11x17 size page. So you can print this on any printer that can print on 11x17. Email this to FedEx Office and have...

    Recommend a decent steering servo for Boost?

    Sorry for all the questions on the forum, but here's another: Last time I was at the track, I felt like e steering on my Boost was a little slow. Didn't really cause any problems, but it just "felt" sluggish. I've done some searching on the web, other forums, etc but there are lots of options...

    Replacing/upgrading front camber links-with photos!

    Okay, so I purchased a couple pair of Associated steel turnbuckles (#6263) at a LHS. They were 2.06" (52.3mm) in length. I only just managed to fit one last night and I had to position the ball studs in the two holes farthest apart on the car (the stock plastic link uses the two closest together...

    Boost getting a makeover

    This my 1st buggy style RC, and I will say out of the box it is OK. My 2 biggest complaints are the Phillips screws, and the front tires. The front tires don’t seem to get any traction, and just slide. Minor problems, and easy fixes. Like all of my RCs, nothing stays stock for long. So I got my...
