That sounds wrong. If the center ball screw is snug in the pod plate, then the ball is loose in the "football" If the screws that hold the "football together are snug, then either the ball or the plastic "football" is worn out. I'd replace both the ball and the football together if one is worn out. There should be no slop in the center ball and football, and no binding.

ROAR announced a change in the weight rule for the Carpet Nats.
It is 865g. Electronic choices make the biggest difference in car weight, you can add some aluminum or Ti screws to the car but that's about it on the chassis. Bodies also can make a difference. |
Dropped about 10 grams with aluminum screws. Huge difference going to the Speed12. Also Trinity Duo is quite a bit lighter than the Novak.

These are the parts you need to make the "brushless" pod.
8511 -10R5 lower plate 8512 -10R5 upper plate 4608 -12R5 diff hub narrow 4609 -12R5 thrust cone The motor plate is repositioned on the graphite pieces to change the weight balance of the pod. The hub and cone are needed to keep the rear width legal. |

Craig - it is a combo of graphite top/lower pod pieces and a hub. Sean Cochran said it best. Are you going to jump ship??

I find it hard to believe that Associated isn't selling the car with the brushless stuff in the kit. Is anyone using brushed motors any more ? WTF!

It is sold as brushless ready and brushless motors do fit quite nicely in the pod. (I've had four in there; a Tekin, Novak, LRP and Speed Passion. They all fit.) The parts that the other people are looking for will move the motor about 3mm and supposed to balance better.
