Does anyone know if I could use 61315 in place of 67711? Are the screw hole positions exactly the same?

Should be the same. The only difference between those two that I know of is the edge fillets (rounded edges) vs the one on the TC kit doesn't have any.

I need some help with my used Cyclone TC I just purchased. It's the black version, which is basically stock. I'd like to run a 17.5 Novak Ballistic brushless in it. I'll probably be running a Mamba Max Pro ESC in it. I see it's difficult to get the FDR down. Can anyone make any suggestions on the right FDR to use and what spur/pinion combos will really work, without changing the pulleys? Is it possible? I searched and searched, but never found any good, concrete info. Thanks in advance!

Not too familar with the MM Pro. Does it have any type of timing advance like other brands? If it does, you'll use a lower FDR. Starting around 6.0. If it does'nt, you may try around low 4.0's to start. On mine I ran 4.3 on a medium asphalt track. 88x48 spur/pinion. My IDR is 2.43 as I have the Moorespeed. I believe yours is 2.1? Just some ideas to consider.

His will also be 2.4 if it's the black version unless the pulley's were changed. FDR will all depend on the speedo used. I'm sure someone with MM experience will be along to help him out.

Ah, was'nt sure. I thought when the change to TC version it got the 18t pulleys.

I've been using a battery tray weight. I'm going to ditch it. How much weight should I add and what's the front/rear bias?

Thanks, Rob.........

the TC did get the lower internal ratio (18t pulleys) - but none of the 'earlier' cyclones came stock with 18t pulleys, they all have 16t ones

as far as a gearing issue - if you are running an 'advanced timing/turbo/boost' like speedo, you really don't need a super low FDR...A gearing start-point might be something to seriously ask in the MMM thread - in there you get guys running that speedo in everything, and you'd probably get a few more experts on the speedo as well

here, you get some MMM knowledge - but lots of cyclone knowledge

here's a 'for instance' in my cyclone (w/18t pulleys), i would gear the car for a 4.0-ish FDR with my tekin speedo (yes, i know its NOT a MMM), when tekin released v203 with all those extra timing features, i ended up gearing my car high (FDR around 5.5-6) and still had the speedo...so that might be something to consider when i said you may not need to get for a crazy-low FDR

That's a good call on the MM thread.

Curious. What are the tracks you drive on like? Are you using a battery tray weight?

mostly med-to-large parking lot tracks...we do have a real sweet setup in Jackson, NJ (http://www.jacksonrcracing.com/) - nice permanent facility with CURBS

on my 'standard' cyclone i AM running a lipo battery tray - mainly because i never really ran a 5000mah pack

on my cyclone TC, i am using an exotek chassis with the weighted battery retainers

quick question, how are you managing to get a 88T spur on? I tried putting on a 84T and it bound up on the chassis.
