OK quick question. I stepped up from a TC3 to a V ONE RRR. Got it all together, broke in motor (7 tanks) and finally got ready to run it a bit. take it pretty calmly through some corners and hit the straight and gun it. The motors signature did not reflect the cars actual acceleration and when I breaked at end then gassed it to get out of turn motor wailed but car didnt push. I couple of throttle pulls and the clutch finally engaged again. I did this continually coming off high RPMs. Could this be my clutch spring was too tight? any help would be greatly appreciated.
Did it scream and do nothing, or burble its way up and then start to engage?
Maybe your clutch spring may be too tight, but if its screaming its ass off and going nowhere, and then going every other time, I would say its the one-way bearing in the first gear slipping.

Well the first time you gun it its like a rocket down the straight. But then you gun it and its a lot of engine wailing but no power to the wheels. It comes and goes sporatically. I have two of them so my plan tomorrow I guess is loosen the clutch and if that doesnt work rob the one way off my back up until I get another one in.

If so, I would definitely either replace the one way bearing or give it a good clean out and re-oil it with quality one-way oil.
But only replace it if you are absolutely sure that the rear belt pulley is not loose - ive done that before, no power and check ed the rear small pulley, sure enough the screw was loose.
If everything is nice and tight, then Im almost certain its just the one-way bearing giving out on you.

Thanks! You've got a similar?
My running is such limited so I'm keeping this model instead of going to latest and greatest. Plus I have a box of spares that I rarely need, if at all. I installed High Voltage servos and a lipo, though the weight savings are rather subtle. Well at least they're super fast and strong. This baby weights well under 1700 with a transponder in running condition tank empty.
edit: 1696 grams to be exact with transponder and used tires (not worn out). Minimum here is 1700 so it's good news; just a small weight somewhere and we are legal tank empty.

Nice! How much it weights? What's the pipe? Orion?
#2575
the pipe is the 2630 novarossi with one orion no conical manifold.
it weights as is in the pic but with body and air filter at 1705gr.
it is a rrr wc.that i turned the upper deck in semi evo-r4 style,with reciever in the left side.the chassis that i use is the sp that i plan to turn it in evo style.

I noticed ur upperdeck cut!! kinda like shimos, I did mines the otherday, did u notice any difference in steering or handling?? and do u use the additional holes to mount the front smaller upperdeck piece? I see u drilled the holes but there r no screws in them...........shimo has screws in his!
#2578
the holes are standar in there.now for any diff,
i can't say,because i have not run it yet.tomorrow maybe.
what about you?
