Hm ...

That cars are very nice but ...

Again, front end 12R5 -> allu block, there is two screws from bottom which can touch screws from a-arm

I'm going to do my 1/12 just for fun from scratch and that part will be redesigned that bottom screws move outside so screws will not touch
and then RH adjustment will not made PITA in that place

Anyway, why t-bar? In the past I break a lot of t-bars in 12L4 ... they do not break often in pro10 ?

I have been running the car for over a year now and broke just 1 T-bar and that was due to me clipping a curb way to hard.
For the rest i send the car flying, did a Le-mans flip and more crazy stuf but not broken a T-bar again.
So dunno why you broke so much T-bars.
Perhaps it is due to the fact you use a lot off hard boardings on the track?


Regards Roy

Dude... The R5 front end is GOOD!!! As for the screws touching the other screws? Use SHORTER SCREWS!!!

There is a huge difference between 12th scale and Pro10. You broke a lot of T-bars in your 12th scale because you were not driving good enough. Not to disrespect you because I had the same problem on my 12L4
I wasn't good enough so I hit the boardings all the time >> broken T-bars... A LOT!!!

In Pro10 we don't have that problem. Large open tracks with grass inbetween. I drive T-bar Pro10's for a couple of years now and I have broken only one T-bar because of a sideways encounter with a steel pipe...

I still run my rc10l2.5 (with dampertubes) even though I bought a corally 10sl recently. I didnt realy feel the need yet to run a link car because the l2 still performs good.

Oh Yes I did. I had a phantom problem with my l2 that I couldnt get rid of. When I got the prc car I got the same exact problems lol! with a steerimg adjustment the car wanted to stay in that direction even though the wheels were center. It felt like weird rear steer with every steering input. I switched back to the l2 to look for the problem. Took me two seasons going through all the setup sheets from mark anton and other drivers but all of a sudden the problem was gone without knowing what it was but the car was on rails with huge corner speeds. I didnt look for the cause as I was happy the darn car finaly worked lol. Last year or so the problem came back all of a sudden and found out that I accidently had set toe in where I had toe out before.

Looking at the steering geometry it now makes sence as the ackerman of a l2 is low. Toe in wil probably make the wheels countersteer eachother. Eg, the inner wheel remains more to center than the outer wheel making for some weird steering. With 0 or toe out that is gone.

basicly the prc car is still new in the closet and I stil drive my l2. Reason is also that I had 3 uears of problems with it and now that it drives

good I want some payback. The car with some small updates can still hold its own against newer cars. At least in boosted 10.5t it has no problems. And I did win races with it. Another reason I havent switched yet.

Ps: I am in china and connection and typing/editing on this phone is troublesome.

I'm new in Pro10 with a Corally 10sl coming soon, I'm lost with the roll out. I will run a 5.5 engine with 2S on a fast Outdoor track, I thought about 30-32 mm roll out, am I right ? Thanks.

Tire diameter x 3.1416=A
A devided by spur teeth= B
B x pinion teeth is rollout

With a 5.5 32mm is a safe start.
If your motor runs cool, don't be afraid to gear up.
Without timing, you'll probably end on a rollout around 37mm.
