Lol..my mate Arron(bebop rc) blew quite a few brps up with his 71?

I saw that video ?? for how much those damn thing cost they shouldn't pop, tho u do get bragging rights ?

If you go too low your rig will diff out an you can say bye to your tyre, that 71 will destroy wheels for fun?

You run a bigbore engine?

Yup?7.5hp Gizmo 30.5. Not a 70cc but not bad

He did get warranty replacement like.

We think why they failed was down to the foam on the brps getting wet through running in winter, I've not seen or heard of one blowing for a while though tbf

Not bad at all mate but also nothing like the power of a 71

Yeah I was referring to too light of oil in the trans... bad mojo oil get too hot and thins out. Heat breaks down the oil as well. Imo with higher hp engines and greater drivetrain stress a thicker weight oil will be more beneficial. Or an oil cooler but I don't think that's realistic on our rc...

What's "Diff out"? Or did you mean give out ?

Not sure i can explain it well but here goes...Diff out is when your diff oil is to light and normally happens whilst cornering, all the power goes to the inside wheel with less grip thus losing momentum and blowing the tyre off. Hope that makes sense..lol

Ya nailed it . I've never heard of this before . Thanks for explaining it so that I could understand it .
