Tyre Mounting and Truing

How I glue my slot car tyres to the alloy rims and true the tyres using a Hudy Tyre Truer.

I prefer slow speeds with my Hudy also, specifically 2.5-3 volts, even as low as 2 volts for tyres that pick-up readily. I know it takes longer but results are great. I also keep amp draw below 2 amps. . I notice you also do what I do which is line up the wheel grubscrew with the one on the pulley wheel which makes it easier to find on short hub wheels 😄

I must try to remember to put my meter on the Hudy and see what volts and amps I am using. I am inclined to do it by ear most of the time.

@@daveatwinterslane I use an old LRP Pulsar battery charger from my RC car days, it has 1-12v adjustable output with amp readings.
