I'm using a Tamiya Super Stock Motor 23T Type BZ #53930 in my top force evo with RW .6 Pinion 20 teeth. I am just about buy a second bz stock motor and wondered what spur gear i should upgrade to i have the high speed kit as well but cant decide what size spur gear to try next.
I'm not really sure how to work out hte best sizing.
-
Bearing in mind i have rebuilt the diffs approx 6 or 7 times from new to get this far haha... its only ran about 3 mins on the drive so far and had it 6 months
The rear seems to spin freely here, apart from the horrific noise, should the front have less tension on that diff? As soon as you cut the throttle it will lock tested in on drive run.
Have since glued the tyres as seemed to be sitting on the rims.
Appreciate the help :)

Hi guys, came back to it rebuilt the diffs from scratch.
I tried putting a 19t on the bz motor read somewhere it runs better. however, im still having massive issues, on of the gears is too big to fit in the gearbox, when it runs when suspsended in air, the wheels turn but as soon as it is on the ground i only have reverse. i must be doing something majorly wrong as ive rebuild this thing about 4 times now over months. ive uploaded some links which i hope may assist.
I have redone the links above as one thanks

Finally built with a bz super motor. Managed to throw away the undercowl in error during the build so need to add one of those.
I'm not sure if i havent set enough tension on the differentials? On test drive, it gains pace but seems as though slipping a lot. How would i know if the tension is right if i rebuild the differentials? To trial and error will have to keep taking the whole thing apart.
Hope someone can help thanks

ive got steering now that is very sharp and all 4 wheels move independently. the major problem ive had is trying to avoid knocking the steering when giving it some it moves fast!

I've been following this guide to double check
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_uhSpxgtmEI build the first one fine the second pictured below ive struggled to tighten it up. Not sure what i may be doing wrong there at all.
I have stripped the first one i build successfully down as well but cannot see any difference at all. Ive also now managed to loose one of hte small washers from the working diff ive disassembled

You might also check these steering limiters on your axles. See attached picture. Stock tires/rims should not hit the suspension if these limiters are in place.
i was told somewhere to remove these which i did ah god! lol. I believe this was because with a servo on each end there was literally not enogh movement before hitting the stops

After reading on here, i bought a flysky i6 for the clodbuster and ditched the other transmitter i had bought.
I was wondering how i can limit the turn on the servos so they dont extend so far as to hit the chassis. Any advice would be appreciated thanks.

I was wondering if anyone could recommend some decent batteries for a clodbuster, top force evo and a grasshopper II newly built. Ive got one 2500mah carson that came as part of a kit but will need some more. A decent charger too. The one bundled with the carson starter kit is garbage doesn't even have a charge light.

Thank you for the links will order one now

Hi guys, ive done the hard part of the build the differentials but i bought an upgraded motor for my top force evo. I bought an aluminium mount for the engine (pictured fitted) but i cant work out how i will mount it as per the manual instructions.
Thanks in advance if can help
-
That's great thanks. I've only got one sooner I've bought 3 other transmitters in the past month
-
thanks for quick response will order a diff model off ebay for new rc

I bought a flyksy so could use 6 channels on the clodbuster
Can i use the flysky i6 on more than one rc? i was hoping to use it on a new tamiya kit ive bought.
