Rcabj: Thank you, i thought that a new kit would come with the diff case and diff gear, but wanted to check:)

Anyone: Does anyone know if the screws i posted above would be suitable for the diff? I have been looking on rc-mushroom.com and this about all i have found in 3x8mm???

ROll Center
 
Guys, just need to clarify something and brotherman if you do see this, hope you can shed some light...


Doesn't HIGH RC = Less Roll (Because the RC point is at its highest and nearest the CG of the car) and therefore appropriate for high traction/bite conditions because we do not need added traction and need the car to be more aggressive. And LOW RC = More Roll, suited for low traction/bite conditions because we need the added weight transfer to add traction which also results in the car being a little lazy?

IN essence is it correct to assume with all other parameters equal;

HIGH RC suited more for HIGH TRACTION TRACK
LOW RC suited more for LOW TRACTION TRACK

Or vis-a-versa?

Or is there more that meets the eye??

Thanks in advance.

Standard MTX-3 with a Prospec chassis- no eye candy on the car.

Mine's standing at 1747g with body shell and pins (w/out transponder) this is with the Kawahara neg. diff.

Bundy,
The diff needs 4 of 2.6mm x 6mm Flat head screws. :)

solid front/ spool
 
guys,
anybody running the front spool configuration? if so, what's the rear diff oil? does it help on the medium size technical track? pros and cons?
cheers

RClover 03-08-2005 06:44 AM

i am thinking about buying a MTX-3 Prospec and i am wondering if the car needs any other hop-ups other then the ones that come in the kit for example the kawahara belt conversion

Derby Bros Racing 03-08-2005 01:17 PM

i personally like the 16/19 conversion. other than that the prospec is a serious racer out of the box. but i still upgraded to titanium screws to shave off some weight and i'm gonna go get aluminum shafts to even shave off more weight. lightened two speed is a pretty good option also.

but box stock is really good already. i just personally like shaving off weight to make the car even faster.
