| Overdrive/Underdrive with an open differential?
Always looking to improve the cornering with my Axial Bomber. Currently running stock/stock with scorpion open diff front and an incision spool in the rear. If I were to over drive the front, with an open differential, would this increase the chances of diffing out in corners? Or would it grab better in general? Unlocking front and rear would probably give me the best handling in corners, but wouldn't it wander a lot in a straightaways? Locked 4x4 is real fun, but it's an instant rollover in most cases. I'd like to try all cases, but removing the chubs and lockouts everytime is getting annoying quick. I am aware underdrive has better mesh and less of a ratio difference. I just don't have any on hand at the moment. |

I run OD gears up front in my rally HPI and it definitely makes a difference. Not something you want to do if you run on pavement a lot, but I noticed it for sure. Didn't notice any additional diff action per-se. Helps pull the car out of corners and it's way less tail happy on acceleration.
