How well do the RD Logics universal swing shafts hold up?

Do you know if the universals are different length?

The ones at the hobby store had the front ones longer than the rears. With the front width set to 199mm the long CVD causes binding. The original set prior to this current batch had the front ones shorter than the rear.

So it's fair to conclude that Mugen is packaging the current batch of CVD incorrectly. A call to Mugen USA verified that Robbie is using the "rear" universals in front.

What other mistake has Mugen made? I don't know. I'm just answering this one question and there's no need for you to get so defensive. Everyone makes mistakes....lighten up!!

huh? i dont know what you are talking about dude?

lighten up? I dont work for mugen and i dont need to be defensive.

I, as a consumer, really want to know what mistake has mugen made and when you said they made a mistake, tell us why you think so.

you are making assumption that mugen made mistake is because RC uses rear CVD in front?

as expected, a hygrometer for RC
 
As expected and much long awaited, OVA has launched the Hygrometer for RC.
http://home.earthlink.net/~azarem/im...hygrometer.jpg

Will it worth a try? Well, for under $20 it may be so.

Uhm. An hygrometer is fine for doing engine setups, but like everything, you must decode what the hygrometer is saying you and how to apply it for the engine setup (not talking of carb setup).

But for 20US$ is a killer product, paid for mine oregon scientific much more than those 20US$ (some time ago). :flaming:

Only measures Relative Humidity or gives too barometric pressure?

Hey Corse, where the heck have you been? :D

I thought you gave up on us...

Got very busy. Lately I work on debugging an application that has written by drunk monkeys :cry:

BTW: You have PM. :sneaky:

stefan 10-14-2003 01:02 PM

OH, I was thinking/hoping you'd be working on engines;)

kreidel,

Do you have any pictures of what the "universal swing shaft" looks like?:confused:

alvinm 10-14-2003 04:29 PM

I ran this tight track last week and noticed the rear wheels chattered(hopped) on some of the tight turns(on power through the turns).Has anyone experienced this and how can I get rid of it?Thanks.

JustRace 10-14-2003 04:37 PM

I told you the mistake. They've been packaging the longer CVD as "front". When installed it binds the front end. The one packaged as "rear" are shorter and works in the front along with the o-ring.

This wasn't always the case. The fronts were orginally shorter and were packaged as such.
