“The way I drive the three “Henntek” idlers have never held proper tension and caused me more issues then they solved. They work great for people with less aggressive driving styles though.”
Less about rc tank wear and tear and more about the poorly designed…”the Henntek System” only kinda works with plastic stock tracks and not with the Kenny Kong Leo 1A4 metal tracks. The newly finished Leo went less than 3 feet and the Henntek lost tension, and the heavy metal tracks took off the side and forward skirts. The Tamiya kit idler system would have worked without issue using metal tracks.
To say I was disappointed in the useless Henntek idler adjusting system is a vast understatement. Went back to running the inaccurate Tamiya kit plastic tracks. Still have the Leo 1 heavy metal tracks 5 years later and are now donated to Rich’s new Leo 1 build.

Heavy metal tracks.
Tamiya kit tracks.
Useless Henntek, to weak to hold tension using
heavy metal scale tracks.
Lost the side skirts, in less than 3 feet of indoor test driving.
