front brake release mechanism...
hiya folks,
I remember reading about some mechanism that attachs to the front brake on the mp777 that allows the steering servo to disengage the front brakes when the steering is turned. the rear remains braked.
Does anyone have pictures of the device and does it actually work well?

If you have a good radio you can use the mix options..I use a futaba 3pk and using the brake/steering mix I can program the brake to become softer and softer the more steering is added..If I'm using the ABS function (which I don't but anyway) I can also use the mix to make the ABS pulse more frequently and with less EPA as the wheels turn which is the same effect.works great and doesn't add weight to the car either..Generally as you steer/brake it's the REAR braking you want to reduce anyway to stop the back breaking away under hard braking as you enter a corner fast.

yea, ive checked it ALL! i went to a race this past saturday and i took the center diff out. the center diff was fine as well as the brakes without the top plate on the center diff mount. both front and rear brakes moved freely.right when i put it on the center diff, it binds up and the front brakes dont move.

brake problem
the only other thing i can think of is the lower brake rod maybe hitting center diff other than that it sounds

also try winding your brake rod out see if that frees it up

Thanks for the help!!
How do you adjust your toes?
How do you adjust your toes?
hello, the ackerman angle controls the sensitivity of the steering, when using the A hole, the steering is very smooth and the car reacts normally to steering inputs where with the C hole, the steering becomes very sensitive to steering inputs and the car will be turning like crazy. the B is something in between 
i always run the C hole (IMHO, i think its easier to drive a car that oversteers than a car that understeers)
and yes, recheck you toe setting after words because the distance changes, it wont take 5 minutes to do so.
hope this helps
cheers

Hi guys,
when first ran my MP9, i used the stock linkage, had few brake problems here and there, soo i went with a pro linkage from Dynamite
http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...ke-Linkage-Set
i never had an issue after i installed it. its great, easier to fit and way easier to adjust. you just have to bend the ball-end rods a bit just to make sure they dont hit the center dif plate.
also one more thing, you better check your brake disk, if its bent, the brake will act weirdly, try it on a flat surface to see if its bent or not, you wont be able to say by just looking at it.
cheers
