hi guys im having trouble choosing either the 415 and the evo 4 im more leaning towards the 415 as it seems like the car needs less hop ups out of the box. i plan to get the std 415 not the ms edition
i was hoping you guys could share your knowledge and point and the flaws of the 415 out of the box.
all replies appreciated

yup... they stick to the outside rim of the pulley. i also figure that the adhesive indsie may attract the dirt that gets in there, and contain it too... maybe. good theory.
ill know more after this weekend...

And too Arun and Tamiya driver, what sizes are you cutting you sheet? internal Diameter mainly. I've been looking at doing a similar thing with mine, but i notice the outdrives are slopped slightly, in exactly the place where I want to mount the sheets. how'd you get round this problem?
thanks in advance

The other car using 64dp std is the p*#4
See i did`nt actually say the car, so no flaming
X-ray need the bigger spurs cos of the 1.77 & meshing, just wanted a update on the 415, since they are becoming popular prs pinion go from 25-49, spurs 96,100,104

I'm not sure. I have to get ready for nitro racing in Vegas. I was there Saturday racing 19turn. I SUCK! I should've raced sportsman stock or intermediate.

It's daft, theres a variable slot hole near the centre line, but no outter hole, thats just rediculous.... I know you could use double sided tape, but i've never been comfortable with using servo tape for such an application (which is probably daft given it's name..)
Anyone used one of these chassis yet?
I did see a lwt chassis (with cutouts) that did have two mounting holes for the servo, but it was the LWT version, and I can't find out anymore information baring that on the RCeasy.com site.

Anyone interested in a MS with 4 racedays on it? Titanium screws, locked pulley, heatsink beam, delrin outdrives. All CF has been sanded and sealed beautifully, has a nice shine to it just like the carbon parts. This will be able to be shipped on Wednesday, I have to race Tuesday again. No impacts, never broken a part.

Tamiyadriver, you need to bring the 415! It's fastest Tamiya car on carpet. Far as oil, on 415 for rubber we were running 50F 40R with 2 hole pistons. Unfortunately I'll be running foams at Novak race, but 415 just rips on carpet with rubber. Way better then Evo3. Not sure about 4, since no one's runnnig one here locally. All local Tamiya cars are 415, running indoors on carpet with foam or rubbber.
