lol, sorry.

Well when i opened it up and pulled the shoes off one of the pins that held a shoe in place came off with the shoe ( i'm using aluminium shoes ). One or more of the shoes had gotten stuck to the CB and would not disengage. It happened quickly enough that i didn't realise what was going on with an end result of a stuffed engine which i can fix when i can pump a few $$$ back into it.

Clutch bell is fine, the bearings were brand new ( protek rubber shielded 10 for 9.95 off Amain )

For the record i do periodic maintenance on the shoes and had just done so during the week prior to this happening.

i've been using the hobao fly wheel with the rc8 nut and clutch shoes/springs, simply awesome. so easy to work on and adjust and should last a while with the max life shoes. 1.1 springs give the truck a nice kick when the motor hits mid, i love it.

I'm thinking i was just having one of those days...Well i was due to havea bad day out so i suppose that was it ...lol

hey guys, really quick question.
Do the hyper st pro chassis braces (cnc'd ones) fit straight onto the rtr or have they been moved for the pro?

cheers

Adam

not sure but i've seen a lot of people upgrade to the aluminum with no mention of mods.

My Pro kit is finally here!!! I can't wait to get this bad boy built. Anyone know if this part number will fit for a replacement tranny?
PART# 19240 [link=http://www.ofna.com/h7opt.php]Tranny[/link]

sweet man, cheers

Is the PRO is heavier than non pro?

I would expect it is, because there is so much more metal, but Ihaven't weighed them.

hyper st pro 10lb 2oz with 1/2 tank at florida regionals this weekend. 12th in b-main, motor issues.

Hmm it isnt a pro.. do i get kicked out? lol.

Go .28 6p
Ace ds1015 (x2)
orion battery
futaba 39m fasst
dynamite 053mr

After a three day strip and clean here she is. sorry for poor pictures, didnt get any from good angles.

How do you like that Go 28??

love it, starts first time everytime, runs forever, and the power delivery is unreal. no matter where im holding the throtle if i punch it, the wheels will spin haha.

OK So I got 7/10/5 diff oil in my diffs and it pushes around the bend on power really bad. Was going to change out to 10/20/3. Thoughts?

Drop the rear to 2000 and see how you go mate

What typeof surface areyou running on ??

Baseball mount clay/dirt.

I think 5000 is too much in the rear.
Most people use 1000 to 3000 in the rear. I think...lol

what are the good points of the Hyper ST RTR and the bad points?

Yea I think I am going to go 10/20/3. It pushes real hard on power around the bend.

Maybe try posting that in the Official Hyper ST RTR Thread and not the Pro.

wouldn't a lighter center oil increase on-power and reduce overall acceleration? wouldn't something like 5/5/1 be an on-power beast?

Hey guys, I am almost done with finishing my Hyper ST. I didn't use any grease on my diffs, (not in but on them, just to make it clear) Is this ok or do I have to put some on it? And what kind of stuff do I need? That yellow-jello they supplied in the kit (cuz it's metal on metal)? Thanks

If you are talking about the crown gear on the outside of the diff to the drive pinion gear you need to put grease on it. I think the kit comes with a grease that is red in color. NOt exactly sure, but I do remember the kit supplying grease for it. And yes I hope you did put Diff oil in the diff itself.

Lighter oil would increase on power as less dense oil mean easier to move. So how would that reduce accelerations? 5/5/1 I agree would be a on-power beast, but for what setup of a track.

Ok thanks, yes they included some yellow grease. But I didn't use it but I put some Anti-wear Grease on the diff that was layin around. It was included in one of my Tamiya kits.
