Internal gear ratio is 1.8181. What are the pulley sizes?

I don't have a snap ring pliers, so is there an alternate way to install the snap rings on the CVD drives

I used the tips of pointy body scissors and took it slow trying not to open them up too much.

Pay attention to the length of the CVD pins. The short ones go by the hubs and the very slightly longer ones go in the out drives.

I install the e-clips inside of a plastic bag. They may fly….but not far.

I found that Dynamite makes an e-clip tool that might work. I'll try the plastic bag trick.

The Dynamite E-clip holder doesn't have a tool small enough. I bought one for the BB drive e-clips on the X4, all of the tools were too big.

Mi9 ready for Sunday!

It’s freaking light! With a .5mm Wolverine body and tungsten to get perfect balance I am still 91g away from 1380g.

Mainly due to the battery being 237 grams instead of the 300ish grams like you said about your own LiPo.
However the MI9 is really light so I can use the weight :-)

Why has your track decided to run 1380 rather than 1320?
