Belt drive

[japhia42]

So, I'm going to assume the belt drive is no longer a thing? Even The guy in Germany that makes them is "Out of stock" Anyone have one laying around they'd part with? Thanks.

I've not seen them available for a while.

Love my belt drive I see he lists a couple every now and then on ebay

I use the Stern-CNC belt drive on my Rampage MT and Dunerunner. That system is still available last I looked. Also not sure where you live, but belts are available in the USA too. I broke one belt so far out of both rc's. I found a US seller that offers a polyurethane belt with steel cords inside instead of the rubber and fiberglass corded. Looks pretty cool too. Check it out

Looks nice! I'm still having trouble finding the diff mount for the XT let alone the belt drive. Part number 054004. I have to wait till the end of October to get one from redcat and I can't find one anywhere else.

Google HSP 054004
They're all over the web
HSP and Redcat are identical.

Where did you get the belt?

I bought two of those belts. Only have used one so far in my Dunerunner in the above pic. Been on there almost a year now.

Here is a short video of that belt in action on my Dunerunner

Thanks @Phill . No I have never seen them available like that. Man that is a game changer. Would have to figure out the correct belt length

Certainly opens up some ratio combinations.

Just saw. That seller will not ship their products to the USA so I'm out. Uggh that sucks

You could always get it sent to me and I can send it on.

I'd appreciate that Sir! If I go that route I will hit you up. I am actually happy with my belt as is, but a different ratio to try would be cool. Thanks

 

[Phill2]

Just let me know if you have the same problem with anything

I'd be more than interested myself, however, I was searching and there may be some other options here too:

Nevermind. Just go to aliexpress.com and search "Timing Belt Pulley 3M 12T-120T Synchronous Wheel Gear For 15mm Width Belt".

Plenty of options will come up.

The only prob is you'd have to match the belt length to the pulley sizes.
