LOL-Guys, just to say the full kits are not so far away, before Xmas fingers crossed so in time for the next Worksop round. With Tebo now on Board, I think the progress for 2WD & 4WD will get stronger and stronger in 2009! Watch this space..... Cheers Karl |

Love the car Steve,
you are less mad than i suspected. Let us know how she handles How does the wing size affect understeer? |

home
from the two runs I had you can feel the extra length ! But we use the touring car track and just divert off to the side for a few jumps ! Track had many hairpins. Then I landed with the power on off the jump and took a few teeth off the rear diff ! It was very cold so I came home !
1 .. How tight does everyone shim the diffs ? 2.. how tight do you run the diffs ? 3.. how tight do you run the slipper clutch ? Handling felt good although I still have some shockers to sort out !

Exactly the same as with traditional cars - If the wing has high downforce at the rear, it causes the front to lift slightly (or at least give that impression) giving less steering.

Check
Just nipped into van at dinner and checked the FS out ! Some muppet forgot a spacer in the diff cup which let the little drive shaft move so far in it came out the front cup efectivley turning the car into 2 wheel drive ! Therfore the rear diff went !
Just goes to show you should always carfully "R.T.F.M"

the muppet being you i presume then... serves you well for getting a RTR he he... That part you pointed out is a white plastic cover that is included in the diff assembly bag, comes with the diff nut retainer. That's right i'm building my own FS

From looking at photos it will be fun with lipo saddles in there too!
If you did tho' I wonder what it would be like with all the weight at the front? bring out the lead! |

Yes

Yes the muppet was me ! I thought that would have been evident in the tone of the message ! DOH !!!!! It worn some of the tiny little drive shaft but it should be ok ! I have also put some spare diff ring savers on the center shaft outputs for added strength !

Well Steve you know im a fan of yours but.
If you did not use that little piece the nut spins and you could never have locked the diff up. I take it you never tested it after you built it!!!! as some one said you is a muppet. still as you only a begginer to 4wd as you got a RTR i suppose we can cut you a little slack |

FOR THE SECOND TIME ! LOOK AT THE DRAWING !!! THERES NO ******* NUT THERE ITS A HEAD WITH A SLOT IN IT SO YOU CAN HOLD IT TIGHT WITH A ALLEN WRENCH WHILE YOU ATTATCH EVERYTHING AND TIGHTEN UP THE NUT ON THE OPOSITE SIDE. THE HEAD WHEN THE SLIPPER IS SLIPPING ACTUALL TURNS INSIDE THE CUP THATS WHY YOU PUT GREASE ON THE SHAFT ! THE LITTLE WHITE SPCER JUST KEEPS THE SMALL CENTER SHAFT FROM TOUCHING THIS WHEN IT ROTATES HENCE "ITS WORN A LITTLE " OR you could just be taking this piss , so I will sort you out on sunday matey !!!!

Hi Steve,
thats an impressive list of cars. I have to apologise as i use the same white piece on my cars diff. But at least it shows that even the most expeienced builder can make a mistake. I have made some howlers I want to see you take the rtr and win some A finals. |
