Project E10-CSD (update)

This should be the final set up for this project. Been tuning this kit for a while and went throug a grinded $30 Yokomo OD2.0 gear and burned a $150+ Novak ESC and finally solved it all with this. I found out that its better with a Tamiya black can brushed motor on 22t pinion gear. The top bar or rod solves the problem with the rear shaft cupjoint jumping out of alignment, and the hpi.racin Oni-Kyan adjustible arms are perfect for camber set up.

Now I just gotta fine tune it to make more controllable and figure out why it favors to kick out more on one side than going straight. Other than that its been pretty good and I love how it looks now. There is definitely more countersteering now...

I might need to mod a Yokomo prop shaft center oneway with this just to see if that helps it. Hyperdrift's SpelOner mentioned that a lot of the shaft driven CSD in the mainland are both using front oneway diff. and center oneway. Might also need to mod the Yokomo OD2.0 gear shaft to a Limited Slip Diff to help with straightaways and switchbacks...

Just visit regurlary for more updates on this ongoing project either here or at www.hawaiiscalemodels.com in the Drift Section under Countersteer.
