Did you guys ever see that Triton case?

https://store.rc4wd.com/mobile/product.asp?itemid=2953

It's like a beefed up Hammer case & 1:1

I wonder if there is 3 gears.. Hmm

Edit: it definately has 3 gears judging by the spacing & diameter of the outside gears. It's 1:1 so, the outside gears are the same tooth count. Hmm, might have to pick one up & look closer.

Isn't that the same case that is in the TF2?

[Die-Laughing]

It looks similar but, its a little bigger & beefier... Its called the Triton. The one in the TF2 is the Hammer.

One of the cool things about the Dinky DDK is it uses Axial trans gears... in both the transfer case and gear reduction unit.

If anyone wants to gtg this weekend a few of us are meeting up at Bartlet spot on Sunday.

Jason, I got my new 7950.. plugged it in, same thing. It's weak & limited to the left. So, I figured it must be some transmitter setting that I played with or something.. So, I go straight to steering EPA's and they are still where I set them to.. left is set to a lesser value than right because that's how It ended up being.. that's where I wanted my end points at the time of setup. So, I bump up the values going left and it goes further left... I'm like "wtf?".. dude, it was the EPA's that was limiting the movement to the left. Obviously, I know that that's what its for but, I figured it was still where I set it and it was. So, I'm guessing that my servo arm jumped or something.. I know I didn't loctite or crank down the clamping screw on my horn because I was just going to the GTG for a trial run but, I'm thinking thats what it was. The arm jumped.. and created a sort of manual EPA decrease to the left.. I'll have to reset the servo arm and adjust my EPA's again and run it for a while and see how it goes. I'm pretty sure it has nothing to do with the servo being opened up for WP'ing at this point. Well, I needed a spare 7950 anyways.

Jason's waterproofing reputation remains flawless folks!

[johnnyh66]

got the shirts!

and, the Ford is C1 legal now!

So kept finding worn/ severed wires on my steering servos and hoped I could just fix the wire. But no such luck

Looks like I need to order some servos.
Found some brand new. 1976 era hitec servos and my moms house changed the plug and good to go.
For now, I'm sure those are old plastic gear servos that won't last one good bash

But, is will be ready.
Time to order som pizza find som beer and get back to work

[badhoopty]

thanks for letting me know rick.

i was bumming thinking that i wasted a servo on your dime.

[Die-Laughing]

bumming? Is that like.. going around putting your bum on stuff?

You guys with the Pro4's, have you been running a bearing or a bushing on your diff pinion? If bushing, where do I get one?

[johnnyh66]

I've been running bearings but have gone through a few so I picked up some HPI (I think) bushings but haven't installed them yet.

There's a thread in he Wraith section that talks about it but you can look in the manual for the correct bearing size and then just order bushings.
