Thank you T.A. Back into the hobby after a 25yr hiatus. Awesome.

[@MadScience13]

I’m just learning to work on RC’s and this was really helpful! Thank you!!!

[@monsterchannel24]

Great, thank you!

[@PnwRClife]

Super helpful, thanks! Im pretty confident you saved me breaking parts before I even get started.

[@RyanHarrisRC]

Nice work dudes!

[@adamtroy8739]

Sensational video. I thought I'd butchered my diff/slipper however this vid and a bit of perseverance sorted it. Thank you so much.

[@sammygonzalez7627]

Thanks for this presentation, others just shows you how too adjust but will not explain why. Great video

[@sunsetbashers]

man i loved my rc10gt back in the day i still have a new inbox 10 gt and a gt2 in with people where still into nitro

[@BlvlWmpower]

I sold my gt2 and rc10t2 (aluminum tub chasis from back when everyone thought a chasis should be as stiff as possible back in the 90's). Now it seems like the car's handle better, but they seem more "flexy", and less durable too, what is up with that??

[@philthyco1]

Good info bro

[@waltwalt9632]

I just switch my RC10 T3 over to a brushless system, the factory slipper can’t handle it, do you know of any aftermarket slipper clutch that will fit my rc10 ?

[@terryd144]

I purchased a sc10 rtr it has the sc600-bl esc , the truck seems slow. I'm running a two cell wolf pack. (Battery it came with) does this have race mode....ecetra ..ecetra..I guess likes a traxas ...sport , race , beginner ..sorry for using that as comparison..

[@ExaltedRC]

So I've got a b6d..I'm trying to set this up. I can clearly hear the tone change, but between tone changes and adjustments, it never lifts up the front tires? I thought the car was really slow for 7.5t motor..but I'm brand new to 2wd buggy / racing. Any ideas?

[@phillipfrey6597]

Does this testing method work on all brands of trucks and on 4x4 as well as 2wd

[@GeckoRC]

Hi there. Is this method a good choise for the DR10 Drag Racer too?

[@allenaguilar9331]

Very good

[@ridindirtyrc]

Ty

[@littleraptor9898]

what about ball diff clutches? the clutch on my HPI mini recon is too loose, and how do i tighten it?

[@RUZTY1311]

Mine never lifts up off the ground no matter what I do. It goes around the track smoothly though. Could I need to rebuild the diff already with new balls?

[@peersupportcounselor1904]

Hi it’s another Tj from West Virginia

[@internalrefraction]

What does it feel like if the diff is notched or pitted

[@LordDirus007]

I got a HotRacing gear diff for my T6.1

[@jooonsRC]

Does the same set up apply for the trophy rat

[@nonexegimonumentum8583]

Slipper eliminator? What do u think about it?

[@jayjohnson488]

how do you set your truck slipper? im assuming the same method doesnt apply as the truck weight is different?

[@WreckinStreetsDaily]

What about for the b44.2?

[@ozzstars_cars]

You know what would be good to go with the excellent info you discussed? If you actually pointed the camera at the adjustment screws so we could see exactly what you were doing.

[@brianberry5225]

OKI broke my different and all that everything worked out good there but when I go to hold the back tires and hit the throttle my motors like rotate and what's going on with that

[@RBAERO]

What is the best setup for outdoor dirt tracks with lower grip and for high grip?

[@modex20]

This method work on a slash 4x4?

[@gigi9467]

So does this only work on ball diff not the other?

[@brianberry5225]

I watched your video and I see how it's supposed to go but my motors like rotate am I doing something wrong

[@TheRabidDoGone]

I have the Prosc10 trophy...I have a ???? pinion gears and spurs..I bought a 24 tooth pinion,,not thinking,,now what size spur is needed.. is there a list of matching gears someplace? up and down cause i want to get a 14 also..

[@wasabipet67]

Hi ,gear diff. is the same setting？

[@markpitts2853]

So how tight should the nut be as per first build, before adjusting…(manual says flush with end of pin). This is far too loose, I’ve now tightened, no barking but can’t get the front wheels to jump. Don’t want to over do it, or am I being too careful? Does it need to be toghter

[@josephdeffendoll3056]

AWD nitro?

[@tonyallen8626]

I thought if your slipper is set to tight the front wheels would lift a lot more, when you over tightened the slipper the wheels didn't lift at all?

[@MX304]

Do you set the B64 slipper the same way?

[@tjeller9345]

Yup, only there are no ball diffs to adjust so it's even easier. I set the 4wd so the front wheels come off the ground the same amount as the 2wd.

[@superjoint57]

Does this also apply to a SC6.1 with a gear diff? Thank you!

[@RC-ty5ym]

This applies to every rc car.

[@bis4blair]

@@RC-ty5ym No it doesnt

[@RC-ty5ym]

@@bis4blair why?

[@wasabipet67]

HI , RC10B64 Geardiff 2WD, I according to your video , but the car would not putup the front wheel ,WHY ？？？

[@Js_junkyard]

what if the motor just cogs when you get it tightened just past the point of slipping?? just guess??

[@sigzor302620]

When you gonna re release another vintage RC-10?

[@STEVOD313]

Good info, but what if ur running 4wd?

[@STEVOD313]

for setting the slipper

[@tjeller9345]

@@STEVOD313 You can set it with the same principal only without the factor of adjusting the diffs. Hold the rear wheels, give it gas, set it so the front wheels come off the ground the same amount as I showed in this video (about 1-2 inches or so)

[@grumpy1469]

great video. but it would be nice to see everything you are doing. maybe turn the car sideways so it can be seen what you are doing. thanks

[@wasabipet67]

Hi , RC10 b64 2wd geardiff. in your video 1:16 but my car would not to popup ！I had try to loose and tight nut .！！！！PLS

[@loose-hotline5026]

I like to have it slip just a little on my stampede so I don’t chew out the gears

[@KrashKan]

shoot most of my cars are so tight they just do a whole wheelie if I try that

[@Max-hy9ud]

Why do you have a ball diff?

[@tjeller9345]

Because I race on dirt and I like the ball diff.

[@Max-hy9ud]

@@tjeller9345 is the Balldiff with the MIP Pucks good for 13.5 carpet? (Highgrip)

[@tjeller9345]

@@Max-hy9ud I don't recommend using the pucks on carpet with a 13.5 setup. The components wont last with that much power.

[@jeffbryner5355]

Bark one time and your screwed?like really? There has to be a better design then this lol. I run gear diffs in my sc6 and there just fine

[@saltybutsain6348]

@Gregory Bjorn you totally didn’t switch accounts

[@rhinusbreedt9772]

Whaat..?? rebuild your diff because of those 3 tests.. f.. you are scaring me. What about the slipper eliminator? Doesnt that completely mess up your diff then ? And what about just reversing the slipper shaft and fastening it to the other end? To make space for a fan? Can that work?

[@rhinusbreedt9772]

Aaah sorry was for a ball diff.. makes sense

[@dreamer2355]

This method doesnt work on people running low amp ESC and 17.5 motors

[@gigi9467]

Geez there has to be a better way especially for newbies

[@terrya450]

The manual says to oil the clutch and I know that's not right team associated sucks...
