I used the gear diff for the last couple races and I gotta say it was nice. I tried 5000 first and had a little oversteer comming off the corners so I went to 2000 and it was perfect. I have two gear diffs so I can change the setting quickly...great tunning option.

looking for any 1 willing to produce the 1 piece top deck as shown at the above post by stuey... i know the design is almost the same as the 1 dat tamiya 416 use but the front end is still S400... the latest from tamiya is 1 piece (unlike the current 416 n the proto shown in above S400), the old design is actually 2 pieces design wher the rear part near rear diff can be seperated (look at tamiya 416)... ther's another problem dat might involve with the proto upper deck, do the mid 16t pulley cause clearance between the long drive belt with the top deck???

any1 having the access to CNC machine dat can make the upperdeck n rear bulkheads mod???

Re read post #2507 and contact V-design, maybe they will help you. It also appears that it has a second deck to it and is not fully a one piece design.

Hi guys,

if lots of you are interested, I could have a batch of long S400 EVO 1piece top decks for sale in few days. The thing is just that one would need to machine some material away from the motor pod to get the deck on place. If thats not a problem, I can have those available.

Will have TRF 416 1piece top decks available in few days. It would be easier to sell it via distributors than sending one to each driver.

So if distributors read this and are interested, please contact me

will post before friday evening

The right side bulk for std topdeck needs to be cut (the long stick cut away) and the motor pod needs to be modified by cutting some material away so the top deck has enough room. This can be done with proper tools (dremel + metal saw). Pods are not delivered with decks and so they are not available from me.

Just need to do the modification to pods by yourself.
