I raced today and I was the only 710 at the track. i had some problem loosing rear trackion but my car was pretty quick. I was told. My mistake was getting late to the track. So next sunday I will be there early to have time to set up. - I will be gettin my caliper this week (digital) to I can set my centax properly.
my friend told me my clutch was slipping? how do I fix that? |

Originally posted by InitialD Have you done the flyweight mod? Loosen the pre-tension nut for the clutch spring till you get no slippage.. Do it 1/4 turn at a time. |

Originally posted by InitialD Well, as usual, luck and driver skills will always let you down again ! :cry: Anyway, I was actually very satisfied with my 710. The car was fantastic on a tight infield / technical and a high speed straight with a sweeper hook at the end of the track. Too much traffic and the solid front was very useful. When tire selection was right, the car was very responsive ! Did not change my car setup at all from the previous outings on other tracks. Just played a little (plus minus 5 minute turns) on the rear diff screw. I just changed tires using 35 shore front and 37 shore rear or 37 shore front and 40 rear. Tire wear was the same front and rear ! Was it RCTecs' new track? I was lucky enough to get inivited on their opening and drove a few tanks. A lot of grip and certainly longer than it looks. My Rody was screaming by the time I reach mid-way through the straight. Keat Seng was fastest amongst all of us ... especially in the infield. Who won in this race? I need to look your set-up closer ... wondering how you managed to get equal wear with those set of tyres! |
Originally posted by Marcos.S710 InitialD how was your racing? im jealous i had to work , cant race until next sunday, i want to try my ney body (Alfa-Romeo) After all the hard racing, the original kit rear bottom arm (right side) had the treading loose which I replaced with a new one. Not other parts broke. Oh yes. Stripped the 1st gear spur too during practise the day before due to own fault when the car flipped. The meshing of the spurs / pinions need to be very good to avoid the the gears stripping. After the change of spurs and aligning the engine and gear meshing properly, the spurs lasted the whole day's race without problems. |
Have you done the flyweight mod? Loosen the pre-tension nut for the clutch spring till you get no slippage.. Do it 1/4 turn at a time. BTw i have cut the weights so they seat in between the posts. |

Let me know if you want the set-up to be diferent. Your own web space maybe? Or web journal? Own ftp account? RC Reviews at your service! :nod: |
