TOPIC:

Before a good restauration, (cleaning and rebuilding with some new spares), I want to run with my clio. And easier to run with it than the lunch.
A radio, and a teu 104bk.
Soon, I will make a point on my spares body and rims.
The matter is that my room is unavailable for several days weeks.
So to patient:

What's up with the foam around the MSC?
Heat insulation ?

I was young and I ran on a dusty floor and that was to protect the msc contacts. This ugly system worked a little....

So, grand mom was checked this afternoon. And she is in healthy.

No big damages.
Front shocks upper holes are lightly cracked

Ball bearings are lubricated with sand...
And good surprise, I forgot that she had aloy 12mm hexagons.

The 25teeth GPM motor pinion is in very good condition

The ball diff is new (I used the original and I didn't drive a lot after)

Gears are nice not dusty like I supposed.

Now, I am waiting a new hearth for her and to catch her new body.

Maybe a new bearings set and a set of tamiya tires. Pictures will come sooner. Tomorrow surely

now she looks better.

first run and all my remind are back. Especially the sound of rear tires wich are griting the ground.
Too fun. And the balancing back.... I love it.

with her new hearth

Small question: on the sport tuned box is written for the ff01 24 teeth and 66 teeth. I have a 25teeth motor pinion. Have I some risk for.the motor or esc? I run with 2 2000mah. And relatively quite runs

According to the manual that's the tallest optional gearing (1:6.44), & in general it's better to drop the pinion size when you're going up on the motor - but I think the FF-01 chassis is not very fussy... if it wheelspins from a standing start I think you're good to go

Check the motor temperature after a few minutes, the ESC should "thermal" (i.e. shut down in a non destructive way, and be fine once it's cooled down again)

Thank you Jonny. I will try this combo maybe tomorrow if I have the time with my new job (yes another.... 3 in 16 monthes).
