Decided to join in with XV-01

[Yonzariq]

So, I got my XV-01 on the way
Had to get a rally vehicle again, had a full 3-racing DF-03RA in the past, that was a blast to drive with a hobbyking 6000kv set.
Everywhere I went I took my rally, took everything I threw at it like a champ.

For the XV-01 I intent to run it with a brushed set from one of my other cars first.
Will use a 2s lipo and 7kg 0,06sec servo.
I will also order the slipper clutch from Tamiya and was wondering if there is any other upgrade I should order right away.

In the future a HobbyWing MAX10 with 5400kv is on my wishlist

And, what exactly does a front one-way differential do?
I know it came with my DF-03RA, and I liked the way that thing drove.

Long time no post here hahaha
Had a lot of fun so far with my brushed XV-01.
Upgraded it over the last few weeks with a lot of aluminum upgrades, stabilizers and slipper clutch.
It's running a TrackStar 70A/8.5t sensored setup with stock slipper spur and a 25t pinion
Still on the lookout for some nicer looking shocks, was thinking of getting the Tamiya 42254 Aeration dampers.

As there is no real rally racing going on around here I use it to race around on parking lots and unpaved roads
It really is a blast to drive with so much power on demand from the new motor.
Even feels like I could gear up some, motor and ESC still are still pretty cool after running it.

Now I have one issue, and I hope one of the XV-01 guru's on here is able to help me in the right direction
After the switch to CVD's it whines a lot when steering, doesn't matter if it is 1% or 100% steering.
It seems the CVD's slightly hit the C-hubs, but those are still the original plastic ones.
Anyone else experienced this?
I use the recommended Tamiya # for CVD.







Switched back the aluminum wheels for stock plastic already, couldn't get the tires to hold on them.
