Should I use composite dogbones on a one way with a stock motor?

Also, since the outdrives on the one way are metal, I suppose using the dogbones with pin cusions is pointless?

Thanks

the combination of metal outdrives and composite dogbones really isn't good. I had the plastic outdrives with a front diff and i kept breaking the composite outdrives, so i started using the aluminum ones.

Sup guys need a big help here

I have a rtr tc4 bought it for drift
But my friends upgraded their tamiya to novak brushless motors so were playing drag racing for onroad cars now
I bought my self a MM7700 for this tc4
W/ fm radio ofcourse

My question is

What battery should I run this brushless?
Please don't say lipo
I'm looking for at leas 6 cells only cause my old charger can only charge 4 to 6 cells
Any ideas?

Do I need to change any parts on this tc4 rtr/ since this MM7700 is fast?

Thanx guys

I'm picking up outdrive and
Cvd's after work. Are this parts made specialy for tc4 rtr? Like an upgrade?

3800's will be fine. They will feel like theyare newer with the brushless set up!!

All TC4 parts are interchangeable

Foam. I know Im a little behind the times but I try to get what I can within my budget due to the limited means I have with my school job. Hopefully in the fall I will have enough to really step things up

Default Factory Team Edition goes bye,bye!!!

Hey guys,

Thanks for all the help. I am getting out of racing. If anyone is in need of a nice backup roller (Factory team edition) I am trying to get rid of mine. I will let it go pretty reasonable. It's on ebay and in the for sale forums.

Thanks again. You guys saved me a few times.

Josh
