That orange is sick. I'd get one and race it. What makes it a drift car....the tire's??? I bet rcmarket would have it before you could get it state side.

Got my hands on the new cyclone TC this week but have come across a problem. There is a lot (1 - 2mm) side to side movement in the layshaft fixing, it's looks as up rights the bareing sit in are to far apart giving this slop.

Has anyone esle come across this issue?

apologies if this has already been asked

spread the pulleys apart so they hold the bearings out.

Hi guys! Im sure this is in here somewhere but I cant find the answer. I just purchased the LRP 13.5 motor with the Sphere TC. Im running the Cyclone with the 16t pulleys and a 104 tooth spur. What size pinion am I looking at to get a good ratio? Will I need the brushless motor mount? Thanks for your help!!

Try a 91 tooth spur gear and pinions in the 50's should do good depending on your motor.

We run 96 spur with either a 51 or 52 pinion out at Speedworld. It really depends on your track layout.

Hey thanks for the help! We are running a fairly large track in a parking lot. When I ran brushed I was running 36/104 and it was coming off at about 190 deg with a Stockstar using MuchMore 36 tires.
