VTS Slipper conversion question

Quote

Post by orangemazda » Thu Nov 12, 2015 2:46 pm

Guys,

I bought a VTS slipper conversion for my WOIN car but I ran into a problem. My gear cover will not fit anymore. Is there a solution or a larger or deeper gear cover that will fit the RC10?

Pretty sure the RPM cover is all that's fits it. The old hydra covers night but not worth the risk

What kind of surface do you run on? I run on a damp clay track and there is zero dust, so I don't generally bother with a cover.

When I ran the VTS, I used the stock cover but left the plug off. Never had an issue.

GT trans with VTS slipper?

Quick question..

If I understand it correctly to run the VTS slipper on the GT electric conversion I'd need to replace the top shaft with the B4 part right?

What about the spur gear?

I got it all set up this weekend with a 87t spur and 19t pinion..
It runs great with the brushed stock motor.

I am not entirely familiar with associated buggies as I have never owned one. I did however decide to make a layshaft that uses B4 slipper and spur gear on my Kyosho optima mid and lazer ZX. I am currently using the standard B4 slipper. I find some...

The VTS simply was designed to allow the use of three clutch pads VS two. Many found the V1 and V2 slipper assembly would allow the clutch pads to glaze over causing inconsistent slipper operation. The VTS was created to reduce the changes of...

Hey guys, just wondering if anyone here has tried either setup on the RC10? Since many of us have upgraded the top shaft to a B4 one, I would think that we could use either setup but I wanted to see if anyone here had any experience with either...

Are the spur gears for the lethal weapon easily available ?

Yes, they use standard old school pan car style gears like Kimbrough.

I know this has probably been covered many times but I can't find the thread right now, so can the B3 slipper simply replace the RC10 slipper? I seem to remember you have to change the shaft because it needs a long B3 shaft with it. Is this what the...

Haha...I guess I can keep the T3 slipper in the bag then. Noob question.

I wanted to share my slipper conversion to dual pad slipper clutch.

Since the classic Traxxas slipper already is double sided I was searching for spur gears that would fit the center bushing. Well I was not successful doing that so I...
