Thanks, it's made with universal joint shaft in front , cheetah 8.5t combo, low profile savox on the right side, slipper clutch and obviously double metal differential nut..I need time to try it .... I think I will go for metal bavel gears...

Servo Modification

Multiple videos have surfaced of a servo modification using the TD2 servo mount positions on the other side of the chassis. Easy thing to do and it eliminates the crank system for the steering.

Parts used: 

2 x Ball Cups (i used low friction just because) & 3x65mm turnbuckle/rod for the steering connection. You'll need an 82mm length in total.

M3 x18mm threaded tube /connecting nut - Accu.com has these for a good price.

As you can see, no issues with clearance if you use the left most hole on the Q part of the Hi-Torque saver as listed in the manual.

 

Hi all

I want to put the servo on the right side as in TD2 

I wish to know in which position put the servo connector when the servo is in neutral.

 

Can I use the original servo mount on the right? 

 

Thanks

Rebuilt ready for the first indoor race of the season this coming Sunday. 

 

Now running a Muchmore Fleta V2 ESC and a Speed Passion 13.5T motor. Shorty lipo installed up front with some lightweight foam blocks stopping it moving rearward.

It's got DF03 shocks, a Kimbrough servo saver, UJ's, slipper TA06 gear diffs, and alloy servo stays in there too.

Recently fitted the steel bevel gears to the props / gearboxes as well.

Still got rollbars and a set off Schuey/Lunsford titanium turnbuckles with reinforced adjusters to fit.

Not sure what I'll do next to it, it needs to go on a bit of a diet so I think some more alloy and titanium screws are in order, and I'm going to get a carbon brace cut to replace the front shock mount and another for the ESC tray / rear chassis brace. Not sure where else it could easily loose weight from.

I also need to get some alternative slipper pads, as the stock ones don't appear to wear very well

Hi, can you fit an hard case normal 2s lipo instead of a shorty?

[TD4 Superavante and lipo]

Hi all, I need to know the battery size for TD4 without making any change.

I want to fit a standard lipo hard case 2S, can I? It's a gens ace 5500 2S 50c

Thanks
