No idea what I'm doing
Ty, I noticed in your Rally car build that you don't run a servo saver. Any problems with that? Chris and I noticed that my problems were coming from there, and I planned on just bolting a horn on.
Other than that, it seems ok...tight gear mesh that I will try to look into, but once the steering is fixed I'm ready "thumbsup"

Nope, no issues with it. I had issues with the servo saver when it was on there though, it was always coming apart for no reason. I figure there is enough steering linkage to deflect some of the force and with the metal gear servos I am using there are no issues.
Another issue that is pretty common with the DF03ra is rocks getting jammed in the steering linkage, check out my mod thread and add shrink wrap around the openings, it will save you a lot of headaches.
Is the tight gear mesh on the pinion/spur? Make sure all the screws holding the gear cases together are real tight, that can cause issues. And it goes without saying that you checked all the gears and anything that moves on the car before you ever drove it right?
Got my TC3 running! And discovered it had the Rally Conversion already! Sweet! Now I just need a 200mm body and I'm ready!
I'll say! The guy said he bought it from a friend to run carpet, but he is a nitro guy and never ran it. It's in like new condition, and I only paid $100 for it! Damb nice score!

that looks cool gjm...should be a blast on sat!
Did we ever decide on Sat (17th) or Sun (18th) for this weeks event? Maybe I missed it?
I prefer Sat but I can do Sun.
I'm working 8am-8pm both days so I am out, someone else is going to have to spend .99cents on the bracket app.

My girlfriend's Birthday is Friday, and we usually do something with her family, so I'm not sure what day I can make it.
This is why I keep my family back in Vermont!!
