I played my A700L for the first time & its handling & acceleration was superb compare to my other Japanese made touring cars; however, the rear gear diff cup on the right side popped off after a few laps of running and I've been trying to rebuild the gear diff a couple of times but the problem persisted. I am hoping someone here can help give me some hints on building the diff, so the diff cup won't pop off during running ... Thanks!

Hi, i have just bought a A700L kit. Initially I will race on low grip asphalt due to low temp (now under 20°) here, any advice on inital setup? Should A700L-STD-LowRC.pdf a good setup to start with standard kit? I race stock 13.5t blinky
What are the optionals that will be worth to try on asphalt? I think grip will remain low to medium on my local truck but temps will get hotter this summer (over 50° on asphalt).
Thanks!

In case of ST07 outdrives popped off the geardiff please:

1. Check the inner OR05 O-rings. The rubber material of both O-rings should be hard. These O-rings should be noticable harder than any conventional o-rings that are using in others RC cars.
For example our OR02 O-rings for balldiff are noticable softer at about the same sizes. So the mistake in O-rings is possible.

2. Don't fill too much oil inside the geardiff ! The enough amount of air should be inside our geardiff.
