    Help with Hydro. Brakes

    I just checked the spare parts diagram at FG-Hopups, and part numbers are the same as for the SCS brakes.... (Brake Pad pn 1020) German SCS parts are just much cheaper than German Top-Scale Tuning parts...

    FG Leopard Pics

    I use the Elcon Marder shock tower on my Leo. It works fine, but I did need to lenghten the slots in the Alu plate that it mounts to.

    Steel 48t Spur Gear

    Is the gear made specifically for the Firehammer MT? (Or the Carson version) Else if it is made for an FG, you need to experiment a bit, to find the right pinion to get the correct gear mesh, or replace the gear plate and the engine mounts for the FG ones.

    Upgrading diff due to clinking...

    I have been running with Ball drive on my FG Leo for the last 2 years. No problems, Engine is now running with a DDM Race ported 29cc top and a Samba Leop pipe. I have recently upgraded to the Elcon reinforced XL Ball Drive axes. They are a bit thicker than the FG ones, and made of a higher...

    Quick question, what throttle servo you got?

    It is the other way round... The ACE Servos are made by TT. I think the model numbers are identical. At least they are for the DS series servos I have seen.

    Quick question, what throttle servo you got?

    The DS1015 is sold as ACE in the US, elsewhere it can also be found as Thunder Tiger DS1015 or Thunder Tiger ACE DS 1015. (same servo, several names) On another forum, someone compared the DS1015 to the AirTronics 94359Z that has Identical Specs, but is more expensive. He states that the...

    Quick question, what throttle servo you got?

    ACE DS1015 x 2. one for throttle/Rear brake, and the other for Front Hydraulics. VERY fast, they state it is 0.108sec/60degrees at no load.. I have a distinkt feeleing, that that figure is an uderstatement. It "feels" and looks at least twice as fast as the 0.15/60 degrees servos it...

    When running front and rear brakes of a single channel, then all mixing has to be done mechanically, and you need the car standing still, in order to do that. If you use a decent system and 2 seperate channels for front and rear brakes, then miksing can be done in the controller, and while...

    Popped the diff and a dent!

    Remember to get the reinforced Diff Tube. That way your new diff isn't toast if you get a rock wedged between the diff af the bottom plate. I run the stainless steel one from http://www.top-scale-tuning.de Elcon Models also has one, and Hobbythek makes one in extra thick Alu...

    Pipes...

    German dealer Hobbythek makes Steel Pinions for the Carson/SmarTech/DuraTrax. Else if the Gear plate and large engine mount is exchanged for the FG ones, then FG Gears fit. (If done, go for Alu) Hobbythek: http://www.rc-car-online.de
