Its the inner section of the bearing that spins not the outside. Our the inner circle not the outer circle.

Now theres a new problem with my tt-01... I cant go full speed, and when i pull the triigger on the remote all the way the car just stalls. I can only go half speed and im conscerned. Do you think its the esc or servo? im prety sure its not the remote, because i just put fresh batteries into it. If u guys have any thoughts please respond.

Lol you are full of problems huh, my first guess is the es, try replacing it with another if you have one, I don't think it would be the servo at all.

You put tape on the bearings? That doesn't sound like a good idea.

Yep, on the outside of the bearing so that it fits tightly in its housing and if necessary also on the axle to eliminate play between the axle and the bearing. This way I have eliminated all play in the wheel axles and drive shaft.

If you put tape on the bearings, then how do they spin? I'm not sure if I understand what you're doing.


Dfiantii is right, you apply the tape to the outside. Below are some pictures of how I do it.

Pic1: The tools you need are sticky tape and sharp scissors. I use one that is slightly curved, but a straight one will do.
Pic 2: Wrap a piece of tape around the circumference of the bearing. You adjust the tightness between the bearing and its housing by varying the amount of tape you apply. Usually one layer (one full circle) is sufficient. If that is still too tight then apply only part of the circle. You may have to try the fit a couple of times before you get it right. If you find that the fit is too tight and you have wrinkled the tape when you inserted the bearing, remove all the tape and start over again.
Pic 3: One full circle of tape applied. Now it is time for trimming.
Pic 4: Use a sharp pair of scissors for trimming. When finished, gently but firmly rub the tape down onto the bearing so that it does not peel off when you insert the bearing in its housing.
Pic 5: This is for axles. Trim a piece of tape approximately the width of the bearing.
Pic 6: Apply the tape to the axle where it will fit the bearing.

You can apply this tape technique to all bearings, axles, suspension arms, king pins etc. Be aware that the sticky tape glue dissolves when it contacts oil. It also won't work if the surfaces are dirty.

Sounds like your car batteries are near empty. Discharge them and fully recharge them again. It's definitely not the servo and unless you cooked the ESC it will not be the ESC.

Hey guys, some more pictures of my now battle worn Toms Supra on the 3R carbon fibre chassis

Pic 1: The small modification for the battery holder. The originals are useless, the battery falls out too easily.
Pic 2: This is how I prevent bits of shell breaking off. I use duct tape on the inside. It keeps the lot together even when it is cracked.
Pic 3: My servo setup. I use HPI ball ends because they are tighter than the Tamiyas and look cool.
Pic 4: My ackerman setup. I use the forward hole which creates more aggressive steering which is great for a technical track.
Pic 5: I use rubber O-rings to eliminate play in the anti-roll bars (top arrow). I also use universal shafts (bottom arrow).
Pic 6: The CF chassis needs stiffening at the front. I use the carbon stiffener made by Square.
Pic 7 and 8: Toms Supra shell

In case you were wondering,
- Motor is a silver can (540, 27 turn) to compete in the local 540 PRO class.
- 28/55 gearing.
- Aluminium drive shaft, wheel hubs, steering gear
- 2 degree toe-in front, zero at the rear
- 2 degrees camber all around.
- oil shocks, medium springs at the front, hard at the rear. Matching anti-roll bars.
- 5 mm ride height.

Hop ups for the new year include front one-way, rear ball-diff and 2 degree toe-in rear wheel hubs.

Those are excellent pictures thank you. I run a 58/23 gear ration on my ride with a Trinity P2K2 motor and will be looking into the o-rings to stop the play in the sway bars. I am also thinking about moving the ackerman setup to the forward holes. I switched out my axles for these
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120192528414

I have two degree toe in the rear and will be going zero toe in the front. That might be a good setup for you once you get the rear toe hubs.

It will be fine. You will eventualy want to upgrade to an aluminum shaft. I run a Hack C40 6-Turn motor in mine and no problems yet.

I have stock pinion/spur/diff on mine with no issues. I am also still running the plastic prop-shaft. Figure run it until it breaks. So I would leave the rest of what you have alone until there is a problem then upgrade. Save the money for something else.

Ok, Thanks Studysession!

I think i will order from b-p-p.com , i hear they are reliable . The price is not too bad! (in Finland everything costs alot, -mamba combos 249 € - and that was cheapest price!)

Anyone tried Mamba´s ? - on 6 cells what kind of speed should i get ? ~40-50 mph on stock gearing?

I guess it depends on which motor, I think the 8000 would be capable of hitting the 50's.

What kind of rpm´s does tamiya´s black motor have ? less than 25000?

-MM 5700 if i calculated it right, will do 41000 rpm´s on 7.2 volts , so will it go about 40% faster then with tamiyas motor - or am i calculating things wrong?

The 7700 MM does 56000 rpm´s, (8000 X 7.2v) but i doudb that it will be a good choice for Stampede. (allso limited to 8 cell on 6900 -> )

oh, and are all mamba´s with the same esc ? -so if i would later get another motor i would not have to change the esc ?

Ok, i made a choice! -MM 5700 combo ordered.

now, if someone could give me info about gearing this beast right... is the standard 19/61 gear ratio good for speed or torq? -so if i want to go fast, witch gears to use, and when i need torque (drifting) , witch to use. -again i want to keep this system cool, so it wont fry itself.

First on 6-cell, but if it is not fast enough, i will get some 7-8 cell packs later on.(my charger does max 8 cells)

And do i start with the plastic motor mount, or do i need the metal one? (on plastic mount the standard tamiya motor wobbles some ,when i try it).

That's really cool but really impractical, especially when you're racing and need to make a quick tire change.

for connector's, go with dean's (or T-plugs)

try this battery deal - it comes with everything you need
http://www.rcmart.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=52_351&products_id=25570

this is a good, cheap motor for drifting
http://www.rcmart.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=293_948&products_id=7535

this is a great ESC for drifting, and works fine with up-to 13 turn motors

the standard gears are fine for drifting
