QUOTE (hiuy @ 4 Apr 2012, 15:47) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>nice , but can not see wat chassis+pod comes with SLPL 00109 Reynard basic white kit ?

Sorry hiuy, i forgot indeed !

It is a hard complete chassis ( not EVO ) because the only one which can run on all kind of tracks , the soft chassis being really too flexible for some tracks....
We can say the hard chassis is the "normal" one and the soft chassis a "specialized" one with special flexible compound

Many thanks
Jacques

SLPL 00109 Reynard basic white kit, by the look of it they dont come with an engine, or axles, (although what is the item to the top right of the body under the rear spoiler?).
What engine would you recommend.
Zen

Hi Zen,

It is available for our distributors !
Item you quote is a plastic part for maintain rear transparent lights !

We don't recommend motors for good reasons : Whatever the clubs or countries, some racers like Sloting Plus Speed 2 but other will prefer NSR King and other Slot.it boxer and other ...etc etc
In Spain, it is even radical : They run very often with motors wihout magnetism power and so none of the ones quoted above !!!

We could put axles and spur gears for example BUT one more time, some racers will cannot have the ratio they want with such or such tooths number ??? Also, some will want hollow axles in front, other no !!! etc etc

Hi Mustang,

Often, racers use ultra light plastic wheels in front with low profil tyres and very light racing wheels in rear with their favorite tyres or simply the tyres provided by the race rules....etc
Do you want to pay parts you will change ?
Our idea is the following : Instead to pay a complete kit and change many parts because you prefer something or otherthing, perhaps better to have simply the basic parts and choose yourself the optimal parts for your needs

Of course, the idea is not good if customer search a ready to run car and more adapted to experimented racers who change and try often many parts before to find the optimal tunning in preparation of club or event race !

Kind regards
Jacques

Hi ,

The best is to give you a link --> Explanations_Eccentric_Bearings

Sorry for my translation ( for example, i think i have to put "track clearance" instead the barbaric "height about the track"

)

QUOTE (stoner @ 5 Apr 2012, 11:03) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>hy, whats the thinking behind ,having a rear detachable axle carrier on the motor pod. i thought this was the one area you didn,t need any flex because of gear meshing issues. wouldn,t the soft pod flex between the two. i can only think its for changing tyres or gear ratios quickly john

Hi John,

I don't understand very well but seem you refer to the Reynard which use special bearings BUT eccentric bearings are pretty standard and you can use them with many brands using the called 3/32" axles !

And if you refer to the chassis and not to eccentric bearings, the main reason of the axle support separated is because you have a magnet under in the complete cars ( you can put little ballast instead by the way ) !
Sorry for confusion...

Regards
Jacques

Thanks

Just one thing about parts : You must use a long can motor type NC5 , King, Boxer, Speed 2, etc etc and of course AngleWinder spur gear !

Cheers

Hi,

Rear wing is indeed enough flexible and if you warp it, it recover his form !
Of course, there is a limit

We verify each item before to put in a bag but we are human and also many shipments ( distributor --> shops --> customers ) can wrap the rear wing ....

So, ask to your retailer another one please and we will find solution with our distributor for compensate the retailer

Regards
Jacques
