I still think Tower Hobbies is the best place to get this kit. If you can't find a local place for your parents to pick it up, check Tower

Easy Pay is only for US and Canada. But they have $50 off coupon codes if you become a super saver club member for $9.99.

If you want, I will call Tower Hobbies for you and ask how much shipping to Perth is. Since I know it would cost me nothing to make the call. They might ask for more specific city info like a city code to deliver too. Just PM it to me, I will call for you.

I haven't run it all the way down to the LiPo cutoff, but I'd imagine 15 minutes or so? This is just running it outside, not on a track, so it's not constantly at WOT.

I don't think Tower would do it, but you might ask if they'd ship to a hotel? I didn't offer that option, as I'm guessing Tower won't do it. Too much of a fraud risk.

GreggW, where did you get your GRID top plate? Does it come with the mount? They're site doesn't show it.
It looks like the stock mount is gonna be a pain in the arse to change pinions!
Thanks!

Yep, I just got mine in the mail the other day and the top plate is in fact included. At least with the inner model.

The Center diff. leaks :-(

Did the sanding, I know I got all the burrs off. By the way it was sitting off the car (on it's side with resting naturally)......... the leak I have no clue where it came from, but at this point it has to be that damn gasket.

Anyone have a part number for these? I can't remember the models you can use. Kyosho / Mugen? Yes, I know that associated has the new clear gasket if you order it right from the manual, but I kinda wanted to grab it locally and not wait on the shipping and wanted some options.

Thanks guys.

Is this the Gasket you used Billy? I found one of your posts from early January for the Mugen Gasket.

If so I'll grab this.

Yes, the top plate definitely comes with the kit. Here's what to expect in the package.



And Billy, you definitely need to make it to the track. I can't remember being able to got WOT at all. especially at the technical track I run at. It's blip blip blip blip half throttle blip blip blip half throttle hard on the brakes blip blip.

Have you fitted the newer clear seals? Stopped my diffs leaking.

I'm running the stock seals, all sanding, no problems. It did originally leak, nothing now.

That is the right PN. They come 10 to a package, so plenty to rebuild all the diffs 3 times.

Are you ever at WOT? Or just on the large tracks?

Can someone measure the screw they're using to secure the servo horn to the servo? Some how I lost mine, and the manual says it's an M3 x 18mm. So, like a dummy, that's what I bought. It's obviously way too long, so I bought 10mm and 12mm long screws. Both of those are too long too!! I'm thinking it's 8mm, but before I go buy another screw, I thought I'd check here.

Beautiful weather here today. I'd love to go out to the track, but I have too much stuff to do here, and I'm taking the wife out tonight for Valentine's Day. Too bad we're both sick, but it'll still be a fun night.

BTW, you don't realize just how handy your Dremel is until you loan it out to someone.

BTW, when you guys go out to the track, what kind of stuff do you usually take, and how do you carry it all?

Mines ready to race right now or I would measure really quick. It's loc-tited in too. I'll do it as soon as I can for you. It's really small though. Like 5-6mm. You have a savox too though. So it may be different.

And I pile it all in my trunk and back my car up to the table and offload. But I'm going to be looking at pit bags today. Looks like that's what most people have. To go cheap, some use the 6 gallon milk crates. The ones that hold 6 in rows of 3. One guy has a laundry basket. Lol

Oh yeah, I didn't think of that. I Rubbermaid tote with a cover might work nicely. I have a bunch of them in my garage and use them for storage. I also use them a lot at the track, as you can put liquid containers in them (oil, brake fluid, window cleaner, etc) and if something leaks it doesn't get everywhere.

Do you guys usually leave your stuff unattended or do you have something that locks and you put all the valuable stuff in there when you're on the driver's stand?

Everywhere I've raced I've left everything open. It's kinda the racers respect to not touch what isn't yours. Somewhere there is a thread on on here about anything being stolen.
