What are we looking at for price on the HSR Slipper? Is there any information on it I can read? Are the Integy diff cases made by GA or are they different companies? Should I upgrade the bulkheads too? If I should, would doing only the rear diff and bulkhead be ok?

Double post sry idk what happened.

What are we looking at for price on the HSR Slipper?

Pricing is yet to be determined but I anticipate $75 dollars for the HP 2-Speed version, $50 for the Standard 2-Speed Version, and roughly $7-10 less for the single speed versions.

Is there any information on it I can read? Not yet. Spec sheets will be made in the next week or two and photos should be availble by Monday.

Are the Integy diff cases made by GA or are they different companies? The GA's are 10 times bettr made than the Integy's. Better material, better machining, better hardware, and the GA's include all the set-up shims.

Should I upgrade the bulkheads too? If I should, would doing only the rear diff and bulkhead be ok?

I thinks so. The FLM or GA bulks are nice. If you have the $$$ buy the FLM combo diff/bulk w/ the 1/8 scales diffs. Or maybe I'll sell you my GA's bulks, diffs, FLM diffcups, etc. and upgrade to the FLM's Who knows.....we could talk if your interested.

Do the FLM combo bulks have the diff cases built into them? Where are these 1/8 scale diffs?

Yes the cases are built in. And the strobe comes with everything you need except the pressure plate and stuff. It comes with the bearing and all that, see the description for that you need, there are also directions stickied. This is your best bet!
the 9920 or MM with an 8xl will be good. A 9xl, you would have to over gear it to get speed, a 7xl IMO gets less run time than the 8xl, and the 8xl should run cooler.

HB makes 1/8 scales diffs as does OFNA. unlimited engineering has typically used/sold Ofna's and the HB's are newer to the market but seem to be holding up well.

Troy,

The maximum holding power of my slipper will be greater than that of the strobe. The maximum toque the input shaft will hold or tolerate be greater on mine as well.

I may be able to offer different slipper pads (varying friction coefficients) but that part of the project is still in it's infancy.

But yes, the Strobe is great....I just wanted to design one that was one step better!

Very good Procharged, btu the strobe is already out! LOL :)

minor details..............:027:

It seems that there always are! LOL, WELCOME TO RCING! HAHAHAHAHA:005:
But, if you are using the gmaxx chassis, the sliperential is top notch!!!

But as Pro said, you can either go UE 1/8th diffs, or the HB's. If you are using the 1/8th scale, you need the hybrid bulks I believe, not the combo's. Both are designed the same with the case built in.

Thanks for all the info ill look at this stuff and think it out. This is a lot of money so I want to make sure its what I want to do. I have one more year of high school and then college so im not 100% set on this idea. Are any of you guys in college? I dont see any 1/8th scale diffs on UE's websight. I see the Hot Bodies diffs on here that are 1/8th. Whats the difference between the two on here. Do the hybird bulks come apart or are they one solid piece?

Nope. Graduated a while back...............

Did u have time and a place to run your rc cars? Did anyone ever say anything to you cause some people think its a waste of munny and stupid. I love rc cars but going brushless in my e is a little more over my head. What if I sold my e and my nitro rustler and got a e-stampede or rustler and did brushless in them?

Tough to answer.

A stadium truck would be cheaper both on the base truck, batteries, and the brushless system.

I prefer monster trucks so I'd vote for keeping the maxx and buying a Warrior 9920 (or mamba maxx) with a UBEC and Feigao 8XL. Cost would be $290 w/pinion gear. Not too bad.

If you need a power boost swap out the motors! I have a set I'll sell you cheap. They are brand new 550 cans (never used) with 156watt rating vs stock 119watt titans. That's a 30% boost in power and would be a cheap bolt-on! That's what I was going to do and then deceided to invest in a brushless system. It's an option anyway and you could keep your EVX controller but pick up some power and speed.

I still need the following in order to handle brushless: center cvd's, front cvd's, new slipper, front & rear diffs (seems the best way to go is hybird w/1/8th scale diffs which isnt much more than just diffs). Thats about 450 in parts and then another 260 for motor/esc/ubec. Total of 710. I love mt's but mostly everything around me is flat. Me and my neighbors built a go-kart track and running on its fun but the stadium truck would be better.
