RC-DriftNewb- hey whats up. well took it out on Sat and noticed that the cvd pin is eating the cup up and is causing the car to fell a jerky. Do you know of any other shafts i can use beside the cvd's (purple) but otherwise it feel good. I put some T-Drift on them too and drifted with some of the guys but the car felt the same jerky but otherwise felt ok. Re-geared the Avid for speed and got it up to back 50-53mph but cant seem to keep the car on the ground. lol. Gona to try to make it out to a drift comp this weekend at SpeedTech in San Gab. if i can get the parts for the car. ill keep you updated.

my brother runs NTC3 front CV bones instead of the HPI purple aluminum ones. He kept bending the aluminum ones with the front one-way so with these ones, no more bending.

Just thought I'd bump this up. Anyone still running a pro4?

Outdoor season starts in a few weeks and I'll be running my pro4 in the stock, possibly pro stock class.

Should be fun!

Default Please Help. Battery Posts Wanted

Hello,

I got a PRO4 on ebay and Im getting it ready for a friend. Im impressed
with it. So much so that Ill probably buy a cyclone this year for myself

I need a favour though. My friend uses stick packs at the moment
and the PRO 4 is missing some little parts I need. I have ordered the
screws `Z305` from an `edealer` and I have the keeper parts to stop the pack moving left or right.

Now I need the two battery posts part 73512 (4) to complete the
job.

Anyone on this forum feeling charitable and let me have them for
a small fee? I can paypal the money.

Regards

Nigel (UK)

The only thing you should have to do is put the screws in the correct holes. That shouldnt both be on the same side of the motor. The upper screw should sit close towards the center of the car, and the lower one, should sit towards the outer edge of the car. Then it slides right on.
