Default Slipping clutch???

Hi folks,

My Wraith is still very new, as am I to this side of RC....

I seem to have a problem with the clutch....
Every time it gets in a tight spot, the clutch just spins up!
I am sure I have done a good job building it.... I mean, it's hardly difficult but I did notice some lacking detail in the instructions particularly on setting the clutch....

Right now, its set with the end on the thread just proud of the nut.

Should I leave it as it is? or, can I tweak it???

Many thanks,

Dave.

Crank it right down as tight as you can. It'll still slip when you bind it hard but the other 98% of the time you won't even know you have a slipper clutch.

Standard practice seems to be full tight then loosen 1/4 turn.
Seems to work well for me
