@snafu, I after i replaced my rear diff shims and diff oil, I reassembled my car and left the rear belt off, it spun the same if I put the slipper on or not, so I dunno what is binding on yours.
I beat my record, only 1 hour this time to reshim and change diff fluid........ lol. I will give the truck this, it really handles was on black top....... lol. I put the exotek front locker in. The only difference I could tell in the street is that the front tire peeled out and the rear slipped. I could actually see the front pull the rear around. Hopefully this helps me on the track. This is the last mod/upgrade.part i plan on buying. Really hope the truck is drivable now. does not have to win every race, just drive in a straight line.
on a side note. who here believes in radio lag? Because I think I might be getting some radio lag. Please dont ask me which radio i have and suggest I get a spektrum like 90% of the people out there, lol. Just asking if you believe and radio lag and what it feels like to you.

lol, darn you, I said dont suggest a new radio, lol. I ask what it feels like to you. Mine feel like turbo lag. I rip the trigger and it paused then goes like a bat out of hell, lol. Would a low C rating cause the same issue? My pack is room temp. no heat.

I had an airtrinocs m8 and sold it for a 2.4 ghz radio. I wont say which one, because every issue i have will be blamed on my radio lol. I will come here and be like, my truck is pushing and people will say its your radio..... lol
I really liked my M8, but I think i was glitching, and wanted to go 2.4 ghz after some guys were teasing me about my "sword" lol.

I would call their tech line.
Otherwise sell/junk that radio and get the Airtronics!

well, I changed motors, and the esc and it still exists. The drive line is free. Its not binding. But when you trying to come out of a corner and it pauses, so i give it a little more gas and boom, I get it all at once start bouncing off pipes. It is kinda hard to drive to tell you the truth. I am use DR on the radio. my dr is at 50%, would that do it? I thought DR was steering only.

im curious if it has something to do with the internal spring on the throttle.
add: also maybe the minimum drive is set high on your speed control.

I used the same radio with my b4 and dont notice the issue. But i dont use DR on my b4. So it could be a faulty receiver I guess. I will check the neutral on the esc. I can narrow that. But it also does it from 1/4 throttle to full throttle. If i coast at 1/4 throttle then punch it, it will pause then explode with power. Does not do this on the bench with wheels off the ground....... Thats why I asked about C rating.

Try zero and see if that fixes your issue and then add expo to your liking. You really shouldn't be over 20% max though. Especially if you have a curve built into your esc on top of expo... oh man.
Edit: DR is travel adjustment... steering only. No effect on expo. But expo is steering and throttle.

what's your expo at?

Well, I will probably try to swap my receiver next. I ran on the street for 5 mins. Came of at 115 motor temp. 115 esc temp, 95 battery and 100 on the esc wires. The chassis was 96 deg is anyone cares, lol. Its hot here in AZ. Chassis was hotter than the battery, lol.
