car does donutes HELP!
I got a duratrax evader. Put the mamba max pro esc and a castle 6900KV motor. I get going runs perfect once i start to reach around half throttle the car just starts doing donutes. I took apart the gear box cleaned it all, lubbed it up. I did realize something that shocked me, If i sit it up, hold 1 tire and run it full throttle 1 tire balloons pretty good. If i hold the other tire and run full throttle the other tire balloons pretty good if i hold no tires neither of them balloon really any. any information about this be very helpful!

what should I check with the differential. that was my first thought. everything seemed fine to my untrained eyes.

Get some coffee to help balance it out . But in all seriousness, also check your rear drive shafts. Make sure you're not missing one or both are balanced. Goodluck.

Thank you. I know im not missing 1 as for them being balanced im not for sure

Fill the diff with thick grease, that should help.

its not your normal diff. its pretty much 2 of ya standard slipper clutches with a single gear n the middle

Then tighten it up if you can. If it's a ball diff you should be able to.

It is pretty tight now. Ill go even tighter and try that.
#11
Sounds like the diff is loose on it. Try just tightening it little by little and see how it reacts

when I first put it back together, i tried to go and the car just sat there, so I tighted it up alot and I can drive it up against my foot go full throttle and spin the tires leaving a nice black mark on the driveway. both tires spinning so I am pretty sure its tight enough. ill mess with the tightness of it though and see if i can get anything to change.
if i just go full throttle i can have the front tires straight and the car just does circles all i got to do is old the gas. so it has to be something in the rear end.
