I’ll have a look at the spacers tomorrow, but surely can’t be them as I haven’t actually taken the engine out? But will check them anyway

The corresponding number faces the tank on the 5ive. If your spacers have 2 numbers on them make sure the number matching you pinion faces the tank.

I’m fairly certain these km ones don’t have numbers on them but again I’ll double check when I get time

Couldn’t get the spacers to fit in anyway, ended up taking the advice and just loctited them in there. Just got to come up with some spacers for the d845 to use as steering. As for the brake cams what way do they sit in the neutral position?

 

[crucialRC]

What pinion tooth count you using? Brake cam should be pointing slightly to the throttle/brake servo in neutral position. Just have to think about which way the servo linkage will be pulling the cams when brakes are applied.

Just the stock, but whatever way I did it would not line up just way too tight on the mesh. I’ll have a look at the position of them and change it

Ok I edited my post for clarity. Are you using the stock spur gear? Maybe the center diff tower moved the spur closer??

Again stock spur gear, I suppose that’s a possibility. That’s the only thing that’s changed. But there loctited in there so should be alright

?Well your spacers will most likely work. I'm waiting for someone to chime in on the clone with aftermarket parts issues rant? Cue Z

little bit of an update been busy recently, so haven’t had a lot of time. Dominator exhaust now on, 1st time I’ve sprayed a lexan body not too bad but it’s gonna be a basher anyway, swapped the servos over. Postman bought a 3pv as it will be more than sufficient for what I need. All that’s left is to set the linkages up properly, bind and set the end points and finally get it out for the first time??

 

[crucialRC]

Looks like red bull theme. Good work. Now give us some run videos.

 

[evssv]

looks sweet dude?

 

[Lopes3d]

Thanks guys?? Hopefully be up and running tomorrow if no dramas

 

[Lopes3d]

So all up and running, haven’t taken it out properly yet. Ran in to an issue where steering servo end points just left at 100% at the moment. But when turning right it’s fine, whereas turning left it doesn’t give as much lock. Had a look it’s not hitting or catching anywhere. Anyone come across this problem before?

 

[mark35]

You might be able to get more of a turn if you adjust the end point ??

 

[Lopes3d]

What adjusting it past 100%?

 

[Basher5iveT420]

Sounds like you may need to recenter your steering servo and then go ahead and do the final adjustment with remote settings

 

[mark35]

If possible yes, or like basher above has said recenter your servo horn?‍
