Bearing steel pins. If they are a bit softer then they will keep the outdrives better alive

Nice. Still need to prove these. Case hardened metal from China has been shit forever and just recently began to improve. Like to hear about some testing comparing to stock pins. You have a point about softer, if you like going in more often.

I'll worry about this later. I need to pick up servos and a motor for the car. Looking at a Rex Legend 9. I wonder if this and wc35 have any parts compatibility for future upgrading of internals.

I always have at least a set of spare done one or draft for replacement, but i still change pin as routine. Replacing pin is much better than the replacing the one way joint cup or whatever

Just about everyone told me that a low profile servo would be fine, it's not. I bought a low profile servo for the throttle and the harness rubs. It can be forced into place and work, but it's not ideal. It would be ok on steering side from what I can tell. Moral of the story, unless the harness shoots out the back, don't get a low pro for throttle.

Hi guys from italia, I also declare low profile servant, can not mount on gas-brake, there is no space for cables, I wanted to mount futaba to recover weight but impossible. Now I am mounting titanium ergal kit kits to break weight and center of gravity

Do you think you need a possible 0.1 sec gain to be a winner? If not then those pulleys are a waiste.

I also confirm I put only kevlar pulleys does not need much.
Differences and improvements can only be noted if a complete preparation is combined with several optional options, so you can see improvements even if you are not expert pilots!

Thanks for the feedback. I wasn't looking for better times so much. Was more after durability and such. The color is easy, I'll change them up.

I got a good deal, I'll let you guys know how they do.

maybe a dry lube, grease will pick up dirt n dust and cause problems in no time.

The new pulleys seem to have an extra in the bag. I'll have to look closer, looks like they may give you an optional ratio in there.
