Not racing and tbo not that much use due to my circumstances, just thinking if my current motors turn out to be a bit slow or sluggish a 19 or 17 might be enough, thanks

Hi, I’m just wondering for general use how much maintenance these motors require? It would be in a buggy but the motor wouldn’t be too exposed, not hanging off the back . Thanks

TD2 ball diff vs gear diff general use help?

Thank you all , I think I’ll give it a go with the upgraded nut and hopefully it gets built correctly -

I have an xv01 and have 30k front and 10k rear so I’m familiar with that type of diff and I green slimed the necessary areas. Just never had a ball differential -
Hi, I’m going to be building a TD2 just for general use with something similar to a sports tuned for the moment. Not getting a slipper clutch, I’m wondering if I’m better with a gear differential rather than the ball differential ( never had one) ? I’d need the ball differential nut kit but I could just put the money on a gear differential that will need little to no maintenance? Any thoughts?
-
hi, i know this is an old thread but does the kit come with spacers if the servo mounts are a couple mm too low for the servo?

currently on sale as a new version is out so only £14 that's why I'm interested. If I can't get one then a core 21t maybe ok thanks

Hi, I was looking for a summer project and thought a rere would be nice but the prices are crazy. Saw the TD2 at only £145 so couldn't resist. This is just going to be a park runner and I don't want it too fast. The only thing about brushed is heat, can a fan be fitted under the cowl? it does look like it . I'm thinking about a holmes hobby retro sport 17t about the same speed as a sport tuned . Are these motors ok? Does anyone know if it's long enough for the pinion? i believe it can be touch and go if the grub screw hits the shaft on some motors. Any other motor suggestions welcome, don't want to invest in brushless atm on this project as I believe it's best with the tamiya brushless motors due to the space . many thanks

I think the yeah racing has 2 flanged bearings but could still be that size
-
Hi, do any of you know the size of the bearings in the yeah racing steering upgrade ? Thinking of getting it but the bearings pictured look metal shielded which is pretty pointless so before I pull the trigger I need to know I can get hold of rubber sealed equivalent . thanks in advance

Hopefully get a chance to do this one, weather and covid kept me from the last one -
Hi, it’s a plain m05 no droop screws, it’s just a fun runner so I’ll tinker with the shocks a little bit more, maybe have to increase the preload a bit

Standard servo saver, diff is well run in, this only started really when I raised it and softened the suspension. Might be weight as you say
