Hi everyone.
Has anyone used the JC concepts B4 machined spur gears?

What are your thoughts versus the kimborough?
Thanks,

If you want to use cnc machined spurs, the only option is the TLR jconcepts silent spurs along with the tlr slipper pads. Work better for me than the associated hex pads. Just use the smallest drop of glue to help assembling the pad/spur onto the layshaft.

They are useless. The hex is too deep (have to double up on pads to make it work) so the plate catches the delrin.

Thanks for your advice, I'll get the kimbrough's.

Do you guys have a setup for the 17.5, I ran mine for the first time at the AZ state championships and couldnt get it to not push, Also it was hard to get it to not bottom out on mid size jumps. I had mostly kit setup with Tebo's shock positions and ball stud placement, stock pistons, pink front gold rear 35wt in front 37.5 in rear, dry track (blue groove) i will mainly be driving an outdoor watered track. Thanks, i have an RB5 SP2 and am leaning on going back to it but im sure the 6 is better just need to set it up better. THX

I notice I have the same 'scratchy' sound, without the motor. Strange as I never had this sound from building the RB5 multiple times. Checked and no flashing on the gears. I'm just going to 'run it off'

Just on the rear. Comparing 55's w/27.5 to the 2 hole w/27.5 they feel about the same on the bench but the car recovers super quick on landings. When not landing perfect it just soaks it up and goes. The rear felt a little slow on the bench so I went to 25wt. It obviously has a little less pack but I still like it better. My new ones are 1.55 holes which I will try with 25 as well. At LHR it helps A LOT with the larger jumps. I dont feel it affected traction o.e way or the other compared to 55s.

Like I said Sunday at the track, double-side tape the 1/2oz weight to the back of the KO RSX One10 servo. Run the shorty pack forward and you are dialed you can move the Lipo around in the chassis to where YOU like the weight the best
#2726
I think the CofG of the servo is not skewed towards the side facing the chassis anyway, so I just stick the weight on top-side or 'bottom' of the servo which is a tad closer to the chassis. With the RB5, a short servo allows some room to stick weights behind the servo directly to the chassis, ableit a little further towards the battery. The same could apply for the RB6. I see you point though with moving the entire CofG higher (or towards the rear in my case), YMMV Cheers,

Team tidbit... Buy the Carbon Composite gearbox (UMW504C). They are manufactured with more carbon/glass (to be stiffer), there is less shrink and the tolerances are better which allow the tranny & gears to run smoother.

That's what I plan on doing for testing. I do have to admit I am liking the Orion servo a lot. Just think the KO is much better quality. I need to try the tests with the new front tires I have on the car now. I noticed that the outside rib on the tire was basically fried. OC/RC "clay" for yah. Cant complain they lasted through an RB5, B4.1, and the RB6.
