Hi guys,
Today at the track in my last 2 finals my car started veering to the left on acceleration. I couldn't work out what could be causing the problem. I ended up compensating throughout the races.
Spoke to Ray Munday afterwards. He suggested;
What's your suggestions to troubleshoot. I'm thinking;
If no good after testing I'll have to just rebuild the entire drivetrain, cleaning everything as I go.
Has anyone ever experienced and problem solved this issue. I have a very slight gut feel it may remotely be related to steering issue. But probably not, it tracks fine on the car park. Actually I can't seem to replicate the problem on the car park.
Need to solve before a big meet in 3 weeks time. Helpppp please?

Spoke to Ray Munday afterwards. He suggested;
- Check rear shock preload are not uneven
- a hub bearing could be an issue.
- Rear shocks set unevenly someway.
- Cracked arm
What's your suggestions to troubleshoot. I'm thinking;
- Test shocks and springs on shock duplicator.
- Rebuild shocks
- Clean hubs, test bearings

Is it possible that there is something wrong with a wheel or maybe a tire has come unglued? Problems like this always seem to be caused by something simple. I'd swap tires and see if you still have the problem.

Just ordered a fantom 17.5 today. Looking for some gearing suggestions. I currently run a 32 tooth and get to about 90 degrees in these cooler temperatures. Should I be gearing about the same as my Hobbywing 3650? From what I read here, I am thinking I should start with a 30 or 31 tooth? Any suggestions would be appreciated for my mid size high bite clay track.

However, that said, start small and work up. Make sure your timing is at 55-60 degrees, and you have a very strong 8.4v fan on the motor.

Ok, I know it is hard to tell me what to do over the internet, but I was just hoping for a general guideline. I loved the rip from adding a 33 pinion but I just couldn't get up to top speed on the straight as much as I felt I needed to . I just wasn't sure if this motor was a real burner (as in heat), so I didn't want to go out on my first run with a 32 or 33 and see 160+ temps.
I do have a fan on my motor since I am way underweight so I am hoping I will see similar temps as I have currently just with more rip :P

Gearing a race vehicle is so simple when using Novak electronics. They do the hard work for you (timings)

Here's the information on your remote that would be useful, also check out the FAQ section on that site which will help.

Novak hasn't been relevant in racing since the brushed days, even then, LRP started wooping their asses on ESC's and Trinity with motors. The Novak 4 was their last really good esc and I can't remember the last time they had a good motor, maybe the havoc when SC first started to get big. Bob Novak, is an extremely nice guy and holds a very dear place in this hobby. But he's let the times steam roll over him and Novak's dead now in the racing world. Stop living in 1987
