Question does the RR kit have open diffs? (and newb questions about kit)

im looking at picking up the kit version. i want to do a track focused build.

so i actually want all 3 diffs to be open/not locked, like a SCT. for best handling/cornering.



losi lists this:
"Drivetrain:4wd (locked rear, gear diff front and rear" (do they mean center?)



are they saying the front and center are gear diffs, and the rear is locked? could a gear diff be added to the rear?






also what other areas need to be addressed? i plan to run a 2S, 550 4 pole 4300kv setup. ie SCT race setup.

weaknesses?

There's no center diff you can unlock on a bomber. Front and rear diffs come locked from the factory but the yeti front diff parts will drop right in.

The answer to the question is NO , not without some serious modding ,...
a chap on fb group did unlock the rear by using a vanquish axle ,...
but you could pop into your local engineering shop and get them to turn out some rear axles for you , I can’t seeing being more expensive than a vanquish axle setup !
The square ended axle shaft just need to removed and replaced with the front output design which has a cross pin that engages with the king gear inside the diff , not that difficult at all really if you know what your doing !
Creeper bob (a vendor on here ) might be able to help you he machines titanium axles for lots of different rigs
