Efficiency and power handling. It's better in every way- it's lighter, less rotating mass, a slipper, etc

Re: Benefits of a Stealth Trans?
Are you able to run the new style slippers (B4) on the old Stealths?
Re: Benefits of a Stealth Trans?
Yes you can.
The differential also works better, which improves the car's handling.

Re: Benefits of a Stealth Trans?
Appreciate the insight guys. I'm a bit of an RC10 newbie. I've been in the hobby a while and finally picked one up so I'm kinda getting the crash course.
Re: Benefits of a Stealth Trans?
The exposed diff on the 6 gear simply needs rebuilding FAR more than the internal on the stealth. The stealth diff also works better. The other stuff is just icing on the cake.

Re: Benefits of a Stealth Trans?
I don't have much to say with my measly post count
the stealth is better than the 6 gear in every way.

Re: Benefits of a Stealth Trans?
That's not true.
Diff rebuilds are much easier on the 6 gear.
Gomachv, I joined a month before you and have one-tenth of your posts.
