Got a stupid question on installing the FT Slipper upgrade.
When fitting it up, should i keep the stock pad on the inside of the spur or not? Re fitted the inner pad but i find the spring retaining coller which comes with the FT VTS slipper pack is thicker than the standard one and tightens up far too tight when setting the nut flush with the end of the shaft as per instructions. Do i use the original retainer or the new one in the kit as i notice the one in the instructions looks more like the original one than the thicker and longer one in the kit. |

make sure your inner pad didnt fall off, can be annoying. But yes flush with vts. should not be too tight.
Using the VTS spring retainer without the inner pad originally, it was tight when i got the nut flush. made it very hard to loosen the nut of to fit the inner pad which i missed 1st time around. Changed to the standard retainer which made getting the nut flush possible. Coudnt get the thread started on the shaft with the thicker retainer. Question is, did i use the correct retainer and the thicker one is an option for harder setting or should i be using the thicker retainer straight off? :) |

I tilted it to the side to ensure the pad stayed in place.

The V2 spring seats differently. |

Shows the smaller retainer in the side pic so i guess its alright:sweat: |
I hit the LiveRC free video perfect to watch RM win the Championship. That's great to see. Now RC in 2wd SC Mod and Short Course goes to Associated!
I just finished mounting two shorty packs in my SC10 4x4. Should make for a much better run time with 8000mAH!! Two Reedy 4000 shorty packs! |
I am looking to switch my one SC10 4x4 to a saddle pack. I race outdoor on a large track. Can anyone suggest a kit?
Thanks |

Thanks http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...ed-Upgrade-Kit or if you just wanna run saddles on your plastic chassis, and have the other upgrades. http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...le-Pack-Cradle http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...-Battery-Strap <- expensive, almost why id suggest the full upgrade anyway. |
and i wonder how long it will be before we all have the new BK mod ? |
i just pick up a 15 tooth for a novak 550
