Special Project Codename EF209 - RC 1/12 pancar

[silvertriple]

On the sunday, there was less people, and most of the guys of the club wanted to try the pancar. This gave me the opportunity to gather reliability data with a quite intensive stress test...


The car ran for about one hour and a half with a few pilot. One of the guys changed the diff settings after playing with the radio settings... And the car got an even better handling with a diff set hard... I suspect that would not be suitable for all the tracks, but here, and within those conditions, it turned perfect. The Kydex chassis flex seems to behave slightly differently as well from the G10 chassis. I will need more testing time at some point... The key thing is that the PETG diff, to my surprise, did not fail. The car is light, and that is certainly contributing, as well as the 100% infill which reduce the risk of distortion due to the temperature, although the diff tooth are small 48dp).

I still have the third one to build, with the 917 chassis, and fortunately, one of the guys built the chassis (again as an experience to gather feedback) : the feedback was positive, and the chassis should be ready for next vintage event...
