Cammie838 Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 i dont get that in that case they just need to change the center gearbox and spur to upgrade engine You need a bit of 'give' in the drivetrain somewhere mate, as annoying as it is replacing a plastic gear cog, its more annoying when you gotta junk the whole drivetrain cos a stone or something flicked up and got jammed in between the clutchbell and spur gear (if its metal) and rips up the gearbox or your diffs... I wouldnt be a happy bunny!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordanp Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 thats what the slipper bit before the shaft comes in it still slips ive seen as few rocks in between it already Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cammie838 Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 The slipper clutch isn't for when a stone gets caught in between the spur, its to help ease the drivetrain slop when you blast full throttle and off and back on again and also when going over jumps.... Again, to protect the drivetrain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cammie838 Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 Dam u red threadlock,I think I have tried everything and still can't budge these dam engine mount screws,not even a little,they r rock solid You got them mount screws out yet or still scuffing your knuckles lol... Just thought maybe if you put an ordinary allen key on, then put a ring spanner over the top of it to try and give it a bit more leverage it might help it to crack loose..... Or give you more scuffed knuckles!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharkster Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Nope not yet,I will try today with normal Allen key and c if that's any better,they def must of had red threadlock on to withstand the heat I placed on them lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chirri999 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 (edited) Need help on hop up's for the s50 cannot find anyone selling ally shocks, ally shock towers, rpm knuckles. Also are the Shock towers same front and back they are labelled as pd1515 and pd1516 but look exactly the same in manual. Any companies you guys recommend here or overseas, anyone tried ASIATEES, they seem to have everything? Morpet any chance you can PM your contact number had a look at few parts you have available.

Sharkster Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Ok guys how do u put the engine on the mta4 s28 mount,i know its like any other where u got the 4 screws but they dont get tight in the mount,am i missing something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordanp Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 the engine mount itself is moveable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordanp Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 this is the mount itself underneath the chassis and heres the engine on the mount Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharkster Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 right,the pic showing the top view with engine sitting on mount with the 4 screws keeping it on the mount,im wondering if im missing something as these screws dont get tight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrPug Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 (edited) The 4 screws underneath screw straight in, if they don't you need a new mount as the threads have gone. The 4 bolts on the top that attach the engine to the mount require nuts that have to be squeezed through the slits in the mount. Its a bit fiddly but you'll get there. I'm assuming its an s28 btw Edited August 13, 2014 by MrPug 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharkster Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 thats what im doing wrong,didnt realise it needed nuts squeezed through the gaps,the thought of this is putting me right off lol,must be small nuts i take it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chirri999 Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 RPM/80035 on ASIATEES website is available for 1/8 MGT. 1/10 T-Maxx and E-Maxx, but doesn't say MTA/4, since the MGT is the same as MTA/4 S50 will this part be ok. Does say over sized bearing, there is another hop up in anodised aluminium AGM1021b. What to do?? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dalex Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 (edited) Well that was her first outing with dual tanks, works a treat....got a good 35 minutes Shock socks fitted. Two shocks bust the tops off, found old alloy EB4 ones fitted a treat so I did all the front ones. Cooling head came loose, only thing I did not threadlock, done now Snapped a pin through the hex, cut the head off a bolt and squeezed it in Steering servo moved over to throttle/brake, throttle/brake is now steering the EB4. Going for a Alturn high torque servo this week, was gonna use the one on the EB4 but that went tits up today....typical. Bloody good fun though.
