Nice job and great info, but some unsolicited suggestions; 1)... Use a silver Sharpie (fine point is best) to mark the CENTER of the TOP of the tire (on the inside sidewall), after it's through settling. This gives you an absolute zero point to aim for. * I've used the prop balancer for this from day one, and I've been racing 1/8 and 1/10 off-road rc for over 20 years. I always balance my tires, and it definitely helps, but I'm sure it's even more important in drag racing* 2)..You only need ONE piece of putty! Adding more than one is unneeded weight, and it's the worst kind, rotational weight. Instead of adding smaller pieces (putty) on either side of the main (biggest) piece in an attempt to "center" the weight, continue to add to the original piece, but SLIDE the entire chunk of weight LEFT or RIGHT to center that silver mark (up/top). What happens is, when you add that first piece, your original piece of weight is hardly ever EXACTLY center of the offset balance point, so the temptation is to add "left or right" smaller pieces to center it. Just keep sliding the putty left or right/adding more putty until it settles on the bottom (slower and slower as you add weight), and the silver mark s.l.o.w.l.y finds it's TOP center. At some point, you'll be able to spin the tire (or stop it's rotation) on the balancer and the silver mark will not move...... at all ...... no matter where you put it. When you can do that, it's perfectly balanced. PS, since I'm anal about stuff like this, lol, I'll weigh each finished (balanced) tire. You need more than a few sets of tires anyway, so let's say you have six or eight sets of BALANCED rtr rear tires. Weigh them individually and write the weights in grams of each (on the tire itself or number each, 1 through however many on the tire itself, then on paper). All you need to do now it's pair up the closest weights.

U mentioned BeachRC , are U local to Myrtle ? I'm interested in getting an rc drag kit , which one would U recommend ? I think there is different trans ratios & other plus/minus things each kit has to offer . Was also thinking of doin a FiveStar conversion kit ? Thanks

@Dorkyand40 2 жыл бұрын

I’m very happy with the breakout kit. Hard not to recommend it. If that’s too much to bite off then seems like a Traxxas is a safe bet and eventually move to an rcri or drc chassis. They are more advanced then other current dr10 conversions.

Could you possibly walk me through how you made that air pressure tool from a blood pressure cuff. I purchased the two items from Amazon that you linked in description. But having a problem seeing how they go together. Thanks

@Dorkyand40 2 жыл бұрын

You’ll want to use the long y piece that has the stethoscope attached. Pull all the pieces off. Then pull of the bulb and the meter and heat the tube ends to slip over the connectors on the two upper tubes of the y and then do the same with the needle end.

@Dorkyand40 2 жыл бұрын

dr10 takes the b5 platform stuff..i think mip makes some if youre snapping them..if thats the case i would check your ride height and squat..you want them as level as can be before and during the hit..never steep angles or youre going to lose power and risk breaking them..you can raise the ball ends of the sway bar and if you really wanted too space the transmission higher but thats a tall task..not much tuning room on the dr10 chassis

Sup man. I used this same clay to balance my wheels and the clay literally flew out of my wheels lol. I cleaned the wheels prior to balancing them and let the clay dry for a day and the same thing keeps happening 🤷 Now I balance another set using JB weld and that has actually held up. Was thinking bout maybe light sanding the wheels to see if that would help the DAS clay actually stick. Question....what tire glue you recommend?

@Dorkyand40 2 жыл бұрын

I’ve been thinking of gluing the clay once it gets balanced to see if that helps. I’ve also been people use tungsten putty. I use the usual hobbytown brand of ca snd bob smith tire glue but I have some racers edge stuff on the way to try. Heard it’s good.
