Default RE: Heng Long tanks using ball bearings?


ORIGINAL: GTRice

I see then. Same, bearings aren't really necessary for the wheels. But really, I'm guessing the HL tanks can't really use ball bearings in there tanks I think, when I see the gearboxes in the tanks. I guess bushings or anything they have in the gearbox and wheels are probably the way to go.
If I could afford the bearing wheels I would get them, less slop, less likely to throw a track, less resistance means less strain on the motors/board and more run time, but I have 12900 mah li ion batts so I aint worried about run time
Same goes for the gearboxes, when I get a chance I will try to fit bearings into them, I have the HL metal boxes, just waiting for my asiatam 3:1's to show up
