Will the set up work on stock..... Never race stock on the 415. That set up based on modifield. Perhaps further one click might work on stock....I guess

Hmm so 2-3 click more. This would make the belt much more looser right? Hopefully i dont experience any skipping. Thanks ver much for your help.

Yeah i have seen the square and Kai upgrade there is not really much i need there but thanks for mentioning

What i mean is away form initial groove. I only adjust the belt to 0 click in wet condition. Hope this will clear the mis understanding

cheers

In the instruction manual, you were provided two options for shimming the carbon plate. Did you use one spacer or two? I use one and "forget about it" As for the axle shims I don't have part numbers off the top of my head and I keep forgetting what size it is...is it 4mm or 5mm dah! hehe? In any event, if it's the same size as the the steering post shims (5mm) use those

Ah cheers mate, well its just im starting out in a bit of a puzzle you see. the 415 i brought was from a mate. He built it up good and proper raced it once indoors then decided he never wanted it, he was sent it by mistake in the first place. anyway he sent me the kit but forgot about the manual so thats later to come. the steering plate does have 1 shim i think. Its got the bearing with the flat edge on one side , and then a 1mm shimm shim

ill just wait till i get the manual n check it up
thanks

Now that I think about it...I don't really remember how much spacing there was in the steering. I just used the option for less slop. Try a 0.7mm spacer, it wouldn't hurt to try

If Tech or anyone else produces a FRONT diff for the 415-will it fit a MY02?

Thanks in advance for answering,
Ray

Talking GEARING FOR 19T SPEC MOTOR

GEARING INFO

I going to race the 415 w/ a 19T Spec motor. But not sure what the appropriate gearing needed for the track I will soon race on. The track at my LHS pretty much resembles the track layout of the Tamiya, CA (RROC'04). The spur gear I'm using right know is a 102T-64P and pinion size is 31T-64P which according to the manual gives the final gear ratio of 7.20.

Would the gearing be suitable for the track I'll be racing w/ medium bite as well? Set-up of the 415 is similar to Rod's (RtypeC) set-up used at the RROC'04 except w/a center 1-way layshaft (still working on that part but might as well wait for the one Tamiya's coming out with) and stock front bridge suspension mount D.

Any info re gearing will be appreciated. Thanks!
