Re: for those not on Facebook... JC Racing edition
Just a heads up for those that are on the fence, I see that RCMart has added these cases in white and black, as well as the JC Protec body, Ultima/optima mid 2.2 wheels... It's great to see this brand get some traction from distributors, I had not realized that they were an OG company, I thought the...

Re: for those not on Facebook... JC Racing edition
Looks like 1 3/16" on my vernier, measured shank only, not the head. This leaves enough thread protruding (into the spur?) to fit a nut if necessary. The black screw in the pic is one I bought from Dubro and is 4/40. I'd just do that and cut it if you have all black screws. Jeff if you're out t...

Re: 2.2 wheels on Ultima rere
For my Scorpion rere, I used a 4mm bullet with the solid end trimmed off to make a sleeve that fits over the 4mm axle and accepts 3/16 id bearings. The bullet connector has a tick of play on the axle but if you're careful cutting it can be secured by the nut. The play is nothing compared to the slop...

Re: # 9603 Slipper Pads
You could also try Yokomo YOKB2-670C, I have a Yokomo spur gear that seems to work fine on the AE tranny.

Re: RC10 graphite
I have recently put a 21.5 in my original 6 gear equipped short arm RC10 and I think it offers a perfect retro power level. A 17.5 can also be more manageable without the diff ripping punch of a 4 pole. If you are using a 3300kv motor, it sounds like it's sensorless. I have used the same in mine, as...

Re: B1M graphite
This looks really nice! Couple of questions: Is there room for a gear cover if a guy made a custom motor plate? My track is rocky/sandy and I need a cover or the gears suffer. That's why I like this model more than the tub version. and have you thought of incorporating a plate to tie the 2 camber ba...

Re: I'm gonna guess this isn't gonna work?????
Hey OP, I think you want P/N 3981? I've used those in that location and they're steel.

Re: Batteries and Chargers
I've been using lipo's for a couple of years to bash on my track. I have a noob question about storage at full voltage: If I get caught with charged batteries after dark I always try to discharge some of the pack on my charger before the end of the night. Is this necessary if I'm going to run them t...

Re: Tire glue removal question
If it helps any I used acetone (fumes, not dipped) to clean some Imex tires from a blackfoot. (no, the abs rims did not survive!) They did seem to swell as the fumes got to the rubber to the point where they didn't fit the rims all that well, but over time as the acetone off gassed they shrank back ...

Re: My RC10 World's Re-Re Pre-Build Q's
It's hard to beat a 4mm plug direct to the battery. This is the connector I made for charger to battery. Notice the banana plugs on the connector; they are fine for charging ( i find) but create resistance in high amp situations. edit: can't add photos right now, but bananas are compatible with thes...

Re: triumph project (Venture Hobbies Voltima tribute)
Thanks for digging up this thread Jeff as I never saw it in '09. This car is so weird I love it, straight out of the wild west days of buggy engineering!

Re: Fresh Worlds build and a few questions
I'm liking the paint. Could you tell what yellow you used? It looks to match the wheels very well.

Re: Better 6-gear transmission spur/slip assembly?
Using a spur with more balls is also not necessarily a good idea. The standard eight balls is a good middle ground between clamping force and diff smoothness. Adding more balls spreads out the clamping load more, so the diff needs to be run tighter to keep it from slipping, which makes diff action ...
