I was actually looking at that myself.

The bulkhead itself is not that thick at only 5mm. Okay, 4mm would have been fine provided it wasn't machined out so much (the Kawada bulkhead is 4mm and...

If they are not that complicated I can take a shot at machining for you. Complicated parts are very time consuming to set up and cut on a manual machine and you have to do it for each individually...

Not much to discuss. I just went ahead and designed a system that would allow the single belt drivetrain to clear all the other componentry (but mainly the battery) so I could centralise as much as I...

Juan, the bearings are identical, 850 flanged. The pulley is machined shallower on one side, that is why the flange on that side sticks out making the pulley sided.

Well, thank you for your data....

Well, I machined everything and now it's all perfectly lined up but it was a surprise and not a good one.

One of the bearings sits flush in the pulley, the other one is not supposed to sit flush....

Yes, I know the pulley is sided. I wouldn't go machining stuff willy-nilly. That is the last resort.

The spur thickness doesn't shift the belt around and anyway, I spotted the problem with no spur on at all.

No, the problem was that the counter pulley was sitting too far out on the shaft. If this...

Very difficult to convey the problem in a picture with a limited depth of field.

Look square on from above at the belts and see if the counter pulley stands out of the belt line. If you have the...

Did anyone else find there was a misalignment of the spur and counter pulley on their car? The belt was running offset right (battery side) about 1mm on my car and I had to modify the shafts to bring...

I suspected as much.
This is not a Tamiya thing. It has to do with either ebay, the EU or both.
As far as I know there is no trade accord between the EU and HK so they can't tell shops in HK what...

I am not sure how Tamiya can force HK shops not to send to the EU? Take their sales away? That would really hurt Tamiya, because the highest sales outside Japan are from HK.

On the other hand the...

Hence I can only leave it to mind readers to make more detailed suggestions.

And of course, weight transfer has nothing to do with grip.

I think you need to read back a few posts and also check the difference between opinion and reality.

Without making sure there is enough weight transfer to the rear, everything else is as useless as trying to cure pneumonia with flu medicine.

That may be true, I don't know. Tamiya I think has a very large distributor in Germany who does their job well. But from my experience I can say Xray has more presence in physical shops. Just an...

Xray. Well, they "optimise".

Jokes aside, Tamiya has been very slow to adopt innovations that had proved themselves useful and performant.
