HPI E10 Locked Diff
Hey guys, I just picked up a E10. I locked the rear diff via putty. It seems to drift a little bit easier but should I lock the fronts? Thanks in advance.

RE: HPI E10 Locked Diff
Which is better to lock the front or rear? and if you lock the rear what would you think about if you ran a one way in the front with a locked rear diff ? what would be the disadvantage or what whould be the advantage ?

Don't lock the front because that would cause understeer. Locking the rear and putting a one way in the front will get you better turn in and when you tap the brakes, your car will momentarily be RWD. Just long enough to help your car get through a tough turn. The down side to a front one way, you don't have the braking power you would have with a regular diff.
