Or you could take my unbuilt EVO IV off my hands for just £200 plus £10 insured P&P.

Thanks! I just bought a Evo IV this weekend, when my TC3 broke down during my first pack at a big race, but I didn't get the manual and no one knew the internal drive ratio, but now I can make a gear ratio table instead if guessing

Thanks again :-)

Is the manual available online somewhere?

Or better - can someone provide me with a list of the common spur-gear sizes? I think mine has 96T now, is that standard? And what other are there?

Nope, the manual isn't online.

96T is the usual spur. Range available is usually 90-110T

Default Square and Tamiya alloy shaft cups

Like the soothsayer in Blackadder..... I have news!!!!!

R10 can now get the alloy rear shaft and cup from Square STV-23R, 1800 yen and the front one-piece with cup STV-23F (although on Square's site it shows as STV-23e), 1200 yen

Also, I have had confirmation that the Tamiya alloy prop cups are to be issued at the end of October, not September as everyone was led to believe. Price for these 500 yen apiece, I think.

They are not listing the Team Bomber carbon prop at the mo, but obscurely they managed to either find or get another one for me.

Outdoor mod EVO4 finally loses its weak spot!
