3Racing Sakura Zero S
#1126
Ok, so ready to pull the trigger on one of these but can't find a single location that has the kit, 19t pulley, laydown adapter, vertical motor mount, etc all in one. At this point I would have to order from 3 locations. Figured that starts adding up on shipping. Integy seems to have great kit price but no parts, TQrcracing says out of stock on kit and parts for pulley, and rc mart has the remaining parts. Trying to get best price as possible. Is this the norm? I am also willing to buy a used one with these parts already if the price is right, but do not see many for sale.

This is my local track/shop's site and they carry 3racing. The only thing they might not have in stock that you might need is the aluminum gear adapter for the lay shaft pulleys. They might have it in stock but not have it on the site you could give them a call just to be on the safe side.

Hi all,
I'm planning sakura zero s as my touring kit (previously as drift machine). Is there anything that i should upgrade and what is the essential spare part that i must have. Thanks in advance.

We just had a discussion on the spare parts and upgrades. Look at the last 10 pages and most of your questions will be answered.

OK...what if we don't change the 10t pulleys...any problems with bend parts from the stress...OR just rolling resistance?

Can i use pinions ranging from 17-25 if i keep the standard motor mount?

Did a search and could not find anything firm on this. How are the tires that come with the kit on carpet? Also are the rims pretty sturdy? They run sweeps a lot here and can save $13 if I just get tires and mount to these rims.
I am pretty frugal when I can be (Since I also fly Helis, and launch High Power Rockets), buying good used and only buying things that are needed and not for the cool factor. So any time I can save a buck here, means I can buy the other things I need to spread around all my Hobbies.
Thanks,
Rob

With the vertical motor mount, the pinion starts hitting the arm around 53 or so (depends on the size of the spur since there is some front to back play based on the size of both gears).

I mean what pinions can i use before i won't be able to set gear mesh because of the spur gear holes not aligning?
