Marcus, when will your second round of center diffs be completed as I'm ready to place an order, along with dual stage pistons.

I have a question: Should I be running a pinned top shaft with your center dif?. Currently I only run the basket and exotec chassis with saddles. I'll be running some indoor with this setup but mosty running outdoor. Will that 25/20 shock setup be pretty universal? Also, do you have any videos running on a true 1/8th track as the ones you posted seemed to be in rather flat layouts? This is my track that will be racing at during her summer season:

Looking forward to trying our your newest creation!

Running pinned locks the front and rear together which makes the ball diff useless. If you want to run pinned use garo disks and/or clutch basket

Your statement about where things are NOT made would be just as ridiculous as ThunderbirdJunkie claiming that none of your stuff is made in the USA, and it's a terribly dangerous mindset to assume these things. Might as well say Coke cans are not made in the USA, or you can't buy a Plano toolbox made in the USA, or Jeeps are not built in the USA.

Hmmmmmmmm

btw: Old argument is old! :P

If your front tires are ballooning and all the weight is on the rear I think running and overdrive on the front would make it worse no?

Maybe run a stiffer rear spring so the back end doesnt squat as.much could be a fix? And/ or running lighter front diff fluid?


Just guessing here.

Nope. Didn't fix the problem

Anyone know why the Pro 4 would sit under Throttle and make feint stutter noises. If I spin the shaft it will kick over and spin on throttle but the motor is almost a little glitchy in it's rotation. (rythmatic glitchy)

MMP Speedo

Pull the motor apart and clean it out with air, your motor is.cogging, probably got dirt on the stator etc.

Coyote if the whole system heats up while you are trying to fix the promblem then something is definatly wrong. I remember you saying that you put the 1410 in for a little while, so I guess the MMP was working fine then? So it has to be the motor. I would call Tekin asap.

Double check to see if your sensor wire is not damaged.
I have tried MMP with many types of motors and worked fine, but i noticed that the Pro4 motor woks best with the matching Tekin RX8 ESC

Brand spanking new wire, and used another brand new one out of the Redline 540 I got for my sc10 2w

Well didnt he just get the motor? How much dirt could actually get in there. ( I am assuming I dont know if he ran the motor before this promblem started)

Chad Smith 01-14-2012 08:18 PM

Coyote did this promblem start after you ran the motor?

jnyrcr 01-14-2012 08:22 PM

Did you try a new sensor cable? If not try that first, then if that doesn't fix it look at the sensor in the motor, that would be my course to start off.

Just a couple post up he said that he is using a new sensor wire.

Sorry, I didn't see this post, I would think you have a bad sensor, I had one go out in my novak a couple of weeks ago and changed the sensor and that fixed it.

I see...hope I didn't stumble upon an RC Tech meme.

CoyoteSlash 01-14-2012 08:27 PM

Brand. new. motor. hasn't left my bench.
New Sensor Wire
and the MMP has worked flawlessly for my 1410 and my 1415 until this very moment.

I appreciate the help guys.
