Re: Build problem Turbo Optima re-release / Slipper Clutch

Meanwhile I have extra washers on both sides to make it somehow work.
But this build is not satisfying. Wonder what is wrong here.
Everybody is praising Kyosho quality.

Re: Build problem Turbo Optima re-release / Slipper Clutch

The silver spacer is pushed against the transmission case by the spring causing the friction. The red marked part of the spacer is too thin. The yellow marked part is pushed against the transmission housing. I don't know, something is really off here. Difficult to find an extra spacer in the size of...

Re: Build problem Turbo Optima re-release / Slipper Clutch

From the picture attached you can see that the second OT225b spacer that I put on the axle with the gear is going too far in or is too short. It should stick out further to ...

Build problem Turbo Optima re-release / Slipper Clutch

Dear all, I have a build problem with the Turbo Optima rerelease. As long as I don't put the spring and the nut for the slipper clutch the spur gear can be turned without any effort and the transmission runs super smooth. As soon as I apply the spring and the nut for the slipper clutch the spur gear...
