A chassis swap and a few mods make all the difference! In this video, we make some big changes to the Team Associated RC10 B6.4 and then take it racing to find out if we have unlocked more speed or made a big mistake.
Today's main video sponsor is Valencia Home Theater Seating. These are some of the best movie seats I've seen, don't for a second think low cost budget fake leather, these are something special. The leather quality is top of the line and the smell is divine. If you are in the market for a new movie chair and you want to splash out a little, 1000% worth checking these guys out. Just Google the reviews as the chairs get rave reviews online and stand up to the test of time. I'm keeping these as the kids love them for gaming and movie watching valenciatheaterseating.co.uk/

Good news! The diff is an easy fix. Get Green Slime shock lube, grease both sides with a light coat, and hey presto, diff no longer wets itself. Slime is a good buy because it works magic on shock seals also!

The buggy is still too fast for that small track. Turning down the power and end points will give more consistent lap times and be faster over 5mins.

Get some liquid Permatex from ur local automotive store to stop the diff leakage. They should have blue, Grey, and black. They will tell which one is for each application I think the darker is more for withstanding hotter applications. But that should be a cheap Maybe $10 a tub. And it can be as permanent as you want to be. And I promise u will not be disappointed

@RCKickschannel 8 ай бұрын

I’m trying to confirm that the Team XRAY diff works as I would like to give that a go. It looks like it does as it’s supposed to be a much better diff option. I’ll order some of that green slime seal from TA today and see if that fixes it.

@johnboyrichy5452 8 ай бұрын

The plastic ones fine if you don’t over tighten it, but Kevs right the alloy one stops the leaking.

@@villesalmi899 xray leaks also, its just something to get used to or in my case im using regular grease in the gear diff to make it more of a feel to ball diff (more turn in in tight corners and smoother acceleration) but the strength of gear diff and bonus the grease dont leakout.

@TastierBackInThe80s 8 ай бұрын

Its responsive AF now Gav, seems slightly skittish even. Maybe that differential needs seeing to, and filled with appropriate fluid. Please update us, itll be interesting to see what you did and if it made a difference overall in handling.

@ronaldlatosinski4066 8 ай бұрын

Kevin mentioned alloy diff cover for leak fix. A temporary or alternative is a bead of silicone grease around the gasket.

@RCKickschannel 8 ай бұрын

I have the alloy diff cover already. That helps stop the diff from flexing a bit but the gasket is too thin. I’ll try some green slime to see if that fixes it

It seems you have missed how qualifying works in RC racing. Because of the staggered start track position does not reflect position. Just cos you start 5th it is possible to not over take anyone and be first if your lap times are quicker. Also in the first heat when you crashed into the other guy it’s considered decent manners to wait for the other car and not take the opportunity to go quicker than them.

@RCKickschannel 8 ай бұрын

That doesn't sound right! I think it's more about having fun with other easy going people and laughing at all the stupid stuff we do and enjoying RC?

@dynamight1124 8 ай бұрын

He is right, everyone runs on their own clock so technically its possible to start last, not overtake a single person and finish 1st but thats only likely to happen with some extremely competitive onroad racing. Even with offroad, its not uncommon to start way back, only go past 2-3 people but end up 2-3 places higher due to the staggered start. Also you're not racing people in qualifying and generally most clubs would expect drivers to let faster drivers through rather than holding position if they got ahead.

I'm going to state the obvious and I will say it really slowly. PLEASE for the love of God, remember THIS IS RC ENTERTAINMENT! It's not a bloody factual guide to ANYTHING. It is made to entertain people. OMG, these videos are edited to encourage people to try RC racing as it looks like fun and a laugh!

I thought they were trying to be helpful. Gavin, you say it's for entertainment, and I agree because that's why we come to KZfaq. But if you're trying to represent what racing is like to people who never have raced, Just get an entry level car and race in the novice or spec class which is more fun than mixing it with the big boys. I wonder how many people are enticed to racing if it means shelling out $$$ for the top buggy, then more $$$ just to make it competitive.

@@RCKickschannelwoah… chill your boots! How defensive are you? I would suggest that not knowing the basics of how something might work could spoil people’s fun, but maybe I’m wrong. When someone is spending £100s of pounds to go a few 10th of a second quicker I would think a basic grasp of the rules might be a good thing. I wasn’t criticising I was just pointing out an error which I think is something that new racers might like to know. Also waiting for someone you have crashed into is just manners I didn’t realise that manners were exclusive to serious racers, in fact I would propose that good manners makes people get on better and therefore leads to a more “fun” environment.

I sold the B6.4 on a while back and now have a PrSB401 Type R with even more power and it’s a track weapon. Fast enough to get me into some A finals and win a few B finals. Not bad for a rubbish driver but it’s all the car.
