Kyosho Ultima RB6 & RB6.6 Car Thread
|
|||
How come this buggy seems rare to see at the track? At least it is here in the north east. Such a great buggy! Went from top of the B mains to tq A main two weeks in a row.
What's a fair price to sell a modded rb6.6 with titanium turnbuckles, ball and gear diff, turnbuckle carbon battery strap/waterfall eliminator etc... and several sets of pucks?May be selling one of many I have just curious what to list it for? Thx all

Hey folks,
I'm in need of some front/rear wheel options for my RB6.6. My local track primarily only carries AE, Xray, and Losi stuff so I'm hoping buggy wheels from these manufacturers have the same offsets/dimensions as our RB6s? Can anyone please shed some light on this? I've searched, but have come up with some rather conflicting information.
Thanks!

Raw Speed Wheels are lighter than all the usual suspects by a few grams. I'll try to get some real measurements but I recently picked these up and I was pleasantly surprised.

Little slipper help - followed Jared Tebos videos on rebuilding diff and setting up slipper but never really got either my mid engine RB6's to pop wheelies when holding the rear tires - should i be worried?
I've rebuilt them 2-3 times each to the same effect.

Thanks for the heads up! That's Jason from Short Course World on youtube, isn't it? I ordered a set of wheels to try out.

1. Sometimes having to much timing in a motor will cause the motor to cog when trying to adjust the slipper. So check the timing and sensor wire to make sure they are properly set and attached.
2. Disassemble the slipper and look at the pads. Do they have a nice shiny finish to them? If so, lightly scrape the pad until the shine disappears.
3. Check the slipper plates. Make sure they are not damaged and that the color of each side is similar.
4. Reassemble the slipper according to the manual except when it comes to tightening the lock nut. I would tighten it completely until it bottoms out. It will not hurt much for the short time it will be locked down.
5. Now blip the throttle on the radio and see if the front wheels come up. If they do then proceed to backing the nut off of the slipper. If it doesn’t, and it makes a noise like something is slipping then your diff might still be loose and you will need to tighten it.

I'm running kimbrough/AE gears and running the McKune slipper pads. Best combo i've run yet. The kyosho stock pads seem to fade quickly.
Using most of this setup as my stock carpet car. Worked great. Changes I made to this were all the shims on top (your suggestion) of the front spindle vs bottom. Gave me more off power steering and allowed me to push harder on throttle. Brass front pivot is great and not too heavy. Tried with longer links on front with flat arms which calmed entry steering a bit. However, changed to B6 gullwing front arms and that calmed entry and gave me more mid and exit as well as smoothed out the steering and went back to regular front links. good stuff. If I need a little less or more steering I just work in 0.5mm increments on the steering rack back or forward. Great base setup.
