Hi!!!
I removed the battery brace Exotek, because, for mè il too heavy.
and replaced with battery Brace Top.
Battery brace TOP is much lighter and adjustable, comes with 2 mounting options, short lateral support (mounted in photo) and support laterlale to add any weight.
I preferred the Move Lipo for my cyclone
is perfect for Exotek Chassis.

Absolutely correct - when you sign in and confirm you address, this is posted at the top of the page:

Online ordering is available for the US or Canada only. All other orders will be cancelled immediately.


And thanks to san for the heads up on the sale....

ok guys, i got a really, really, really, really, really, really silly question...

the center oneway - does the one way pulley go to the front or the rear? its always been my understanding the oneway pulley goes to the front (be it a diff or spool or oneway), but i was looking at the Cyclone manual (on page 12) and it DEFINITELY shows the one way pulley going to the rear - which is kinda stumping me as to why...

So Korey, Hiro anyone got an explanation why it would go to the rear instead of the front? or is it just a mis-print in the manual??

I just looked at a WCE manual and it shows the center oneway on the front belt...

so i'm assuming the 'standard' cyclone just has a misprint?

so if it is a mis-print in the 'standard' manual, what are you guys using to hold the oneway pulley in place and not sliding around on the center shaft?

make any sense

thanks!

Hi,
I have checked all the instruction manuals for cyclone series but all show that the center one-way pulley is for front drive belt.

To adjust the center one-way pulley, you need to adjust the spur gear holder and spur gear holder actually holds the one-way center pulley.

Thanks,

Thanks Hiro, but the Cyclone manual I have (the pdf) definitely shows the one way going to the rear, I even had someone else look at it to make sure i wasn't blind and/or nuts

and thanks for the way to hold the pulley in place

does your car roll freely without your electronics installed. I had an issue of my center pulley binding because it was not centered properly

I had a similar problem when I replaced the belts in my car.. the old ones where allot looser.. so I moved the diff holders to the looses position for the belts and it fixed my problem..

Cheers

With my Cyclone the threaded end of the inner link ball studs hit the diff bearing carriers.

you might want to check your ball stud placement,short ones are for the bulkheads and the long ones are for the susp. if you put the long ones in the bulkhead they will hit the diff.
