Front 1 Way: Up front
Spool(Direct): In Back
I feel comfortable with this setup I am afraid to switch out parts but I will to see what makes it drift better later.
Thanks for all your helps guys, TIMMIE!!!!!! TIMMIE!!!!! TIMMIE!!!!!

Ask me what about the old Yokomo SD? Maybe you should dig up the Yokomo SD thread on here. I wouldn't want to clutter up the TB03 thread.

I tested my TB-03D today for the first time:
My Setup:
-TB-03D
-Novak Havoc Sport 8.5T 5000kv Brushless System Motor/ESC
-Futaba S3010 Servo
-Futaba R162JE 2-Channel AM 75MHz Receiver
-Tenergy Battery
It drifted pretty good but had a few kinks. Maybe your guys can enlighten me.
-It seems it turns better to the left, more turn radius. When it turns to the right it has a much larger turn radius. I used a caliper to measure my turn buckles too. I dunno what this is about.
-The motors smooth, but sometimes it seems to "glitch" or "slip" possible I dunno. It will have sudden sporadic bursts of power. Sometimes when it's not even moving after I stop. It will do it in the drift sometimes. I have my Diffs tight, maybe slipping? Why would it then do it when it just slows down with no throttle or is stopped? It seemed to get less and less until it rarely did it. Maybe stuff(I dunno what) needed to brake it? These random bursts tended to happen more when I drifted turning left rather then right. As I said though, it seemed to get less and less. I am happy to say my motor and esc were never hot. Even after a long run.
-Does anyone know how to get the servo on its neutral position? I plugged it in and let it "reset" but everytime I do that it seems to "set" to a different neutral position.

Just your standard 6Cell 7.2V battery.

Sounds like you need to set your end points for right and left on your radio, try that out.

Wow you have some crazy problems!
Sounds like you have some radio interference. Try moving the antenna of the receiver and see if it fixes the problem. Check that your crystal is nice and tight ad didn't get knocked loose from a wreck. Check the wiring on the receiver, and speedo to make sure nothing is loose or broken. These are the only things I can think of that would make your car move from a stop without you controlling.

Thanks for the response. I will do that and check it out when I install the front one way and the spool.
I did have a capacitor sticking out from my Novak Sport Havoc esc zip tied to my antenna tube. I took it of and it go better. The esc is next to my antenna.
The random bursts seem to happen when i throttle or I'll be feathering the throttle in a drift and I'll get some random bursts some can cause me to over steer. it happened MUCH less as I drove it. It really didn't happen all that much and the last 10 minutes it didn't happen at all. It seemed to do it when i wasn't moving but i think i was moving the throttle a tiny bit.
My steering radius is not even though, I gotta do the stuff you told me and see. Thanks for your help.

Hello everyone,
Just trying to find out what the inner diameter "in metric" of the one-way gear is.
I need a Evo IV spool for my 414 (using a 415 one-way pulley) but they are difficult to find and have been discontinued.
It looks like the TB03D spool might fit but I'm not sure if a 415 pulley's inner diameter will fit and the screw holes line up.
If anyone can pass along the measurement, or better yet, fit a 415 oneway pulley on the TB-03D spool I would be eternally thankful to you.
Cheerz.

TB03 one way gear inner dia. is 12.3mm. Hope this helps you out.

When I install the Front One Way up front, and the Spool in the back do i need to shim? Or just ad the same amount of washers as I have on my Front/Rear Ball diffs?
Just treat it like the I did the ball diff in the directions right?
