    It's amazing what a clean surface does to help with traction. Nice straight passes

      Sure does!! These passes were some of the best I've ever seen out of this car.

    First passes looked great! I run a slipper eliminator on all three of my drag builds. Drops weight and you never have to worry about losing power to a slipper either.

    • @FullThrottleRC
      @FullThrottleRC  2 года назад +1

      It has really seemed to help me so far. I was hesitant at first cause I liked tuning the launch with the slipper but I realize now how inefficient that was. Thanks!

    One other thing that I noticed is the angle of your dog bones. They are at a downward angle and for drag racing you want them to be as level as possible also considering that the axles want to straighten themselves out under launch. I would recommend looking into 3d printing a riser for your transmission like how the bullet and r1 chassis have to raise the diff. This will aid in traction and keep excessive load and wear off the drive train

    • @FullThrottleRC
      @FullThrottleRC  2 года назад

      I never really thought about a riser, could be something to look into. I'd be a little worried about raising the motor as well though.

    • @Lushiouscorey2011
      @Lushiouscorey2011 2 года назад +1

      @FullThrottleRC It will raise a motor but the benefits outweigh the bad add with the dog bones up above or level twor level to the hubs when the car launches it will push down to street note therefore driving force into the tire and making it plant Look at the TSR or Tim Smith racing Podcast and the episode when he talks to big chief about leverage. It's the first interview, this is how you would make a no bar car work.

  • @Lushiouscorey2011
    @Lushiouscorey2011 2 года назад +1

    Hey bro love the channel and the content that you provide just wanna say that the slipper eliminator is going to be a great investment and you will see the benefits of it I was sitting but I was suggest going with a bigger spur a bigger spur gear that's going to give you a better launch and roll out with the car make it smoother and easier to launch You should also be able to go 100% in the radio and take your 1st stage in Lent in the stage out you should be able to do everything in the ESC and not have to touch the radio if you need help hit me up I can walk you through it

    • @FullThrottleRC
      @FullThrottleRC  2 года назад +1

      Thanks man! I did pick up a few other Spur gears so I'll try a few out. The plan is to get to 100% in the radio and only use that for really low traction conditions where I can't get the car to launch without it.

      It may not give you more power but it'll make the acceleration feel more "punchy" if that makes any sense. That's what I felt anyway

I don't have a preference for any, just really appreciate the engineering and different styles of each manufacturer. As for supporting me, I do have a Patreon set up but I haven't gotten around to figuring out a good system for it yet. Right now it's mainly just for 3d printing files and such, anyone who supports me on Patreon gets all those files for free. As for gearing, I run 84/21 or 20 right now. Been playing around with that and it's pretty consistent. Good luck and thanks again for the support!!

    • @FullThrottleRC

    If you don't have a slipper eliminator does tightening your slipper all the way do the same thing?

    • @FullThrottleRC
      @FullThrottleRC  2 года назад

      Not necessarily. I tried this. It can still slip a bit and the excess pressure can wear out the pads quicker and cause it to start slipping more and more over time.

      I've stripped one spur gear since installing the eliminator but I think it was more due to the motor position changing over time and the mesh tightening or loosening up than the eliminator causing it to strip.
