Yes the bosy works very good on the cyclone, the body doesnt have alot of front downforce which is good for the clone since it has so much steering. Also www.speedtechrc.com has them also.
Anyone try the Tamiya B4 (orig ver) body on the Cyclone? It too has a longer back deck, making the body a little "pushy" on most cars - however, with the Cyclones steering it might be the ticket?

Changing the mid gears to 18T lowers the ratio to what? 2.? And what advantages do you get by doing that?

Want to say it goes to a 2.1667 - which wwill allow you to run a more normal gear to atain a good ratio for brushless...

Hi all, I will soon be getting myself a Black Edition Cyclone to run stock, i will be using the Novak 13.5, just wondering is there any options i should look at buying or any parts that are known to break easily?
Cheers

Get a smaller spur(90t - 95t) to help with the extreme gearing demands of the 13.5. I would keep spare arms, c-hubs, steering blocks, hub carriers and diff screws in my box just in case. The car works well out of the box. Are you running on carpet or asphalt? Foam or Rubber tires?

A new diff is in the works. Check back a few pages for pictures of Hara's car. There are also a few diff tricks that some people get lucky with but I have broken diff screws using the tricks too running foam mod on carpet where traction is much higher than asphalt and it requires a tighter diff setting.
