If you replace the diff screw with the heavy-duty diff screw from the Cyclone D4. If you break this as well, it could be due to some other factor.

Hi .... It's me again ........ The 2MM trust bearings and washers for my Cyclone will not fit when you use a bigger diff screw in the aluminum diff, so I would just like to know what some of you might be using.

Thank you

I will give this one a try, hope that new diff will be out soon.

Are you using the aluminum outdrives? I found that when I had my car the hole the diff screw went through wasnt big enough and the diff screw was actually threading into the outdrive. I switched to ae diff screws soon after getting my car, and once I found that the screw was threading into the outdrive and fixed that, I never broke another one.

If you find yourself stuggling for traction try these:
-HPI high traction A-arms
-Remove roll bar at the end you need more traction.
-Reino's Marinade/Ragu traction compound - this stuff is great!
-Tire prep is VERY important in rubber tire racing. A good set of tire warmers can really make a difference.

Good Luck!

WOW - I had to add a ton to GET mine to 1525....even running NiMh...

i've got a brushless 13.5 & Nosram ISTC motor/speedo combination, i have a low profile servo to put in to save a few more grams. I'm coming to the point where 50g is a lot of weight to have and im noticing performance differences compared to a mate thats running the same as i am but bang on the weight he's faster than iam.

my micro spektrum reciever is on its way, low profile servo is ready to go in, might remove the heatsink for the speedo. don't think there's anything else i can do but drill holes...
