Any new info on RCM slipper?
 

I'm going to upgrade my clutch and remembered that Mike was coming out with a new design. I'm a little hesitant on the strobe. I read that they were no longer making the disks anymore, so I'm looking for the new best system

Slipperential is the key!

and most likely the new e-maxx transmsission will use the revo slipper, which is one of the best slippers out there. Mike is currently working on the slipperential.

My emaxx is a few years old with the friction pegs. Do you know when Mike is expecting to have a finished product for sale?

New E-Maxx Trasmision????

Is this news that I havent heard, or are we assuming this based on the fact that they just redesigned very other vehicle in thier line up except the e-maxx.

Whats a slipperential ? J/K -

For all of you that dont know what a slipperential is - it is a center diff with a slipper on it - and it has been thru its testing and it works well.. From what i've heard anyway ;)

To my understanding it can be on the market any time now.

The slipperential completely replaces the emaxx tranny, it is a very nice set up.

Is Mike going to use 6061 grade aluminum or 7075 for the center diff carrier?

You think it would matter for a gear/diff holder captain?

6061 aluminum im betting - the way it mounts up - 6061 is plenty strong - im not sure about the motor mount - I cut mine out of 7075 - and its plenty strong - but it might need to be redesigned a tiny bit for 6061 - not positive - but im leaning towards 6061. I'll talk to mike about it a little more...

Well that took a whole 2 minutes Just confirmed with Mike - slipperential mount 6061 - motor mount 6061 ( with a minor redesign change ) change shouldnt take any time at all.

Yeah, Serum, I thought it would be cooler to have it made out of 7075 grade.

Thanks, Walter, I know that Mike is trying his best to keep the slipperential's price within the customer's range and probably that is why he used the 6061 alloy.

BTW, how thick is the motor mount and is it morphed to the slipperential or attached via screws?

Captain, look at the pictures...By they way, 7075 would be pointless on something like that when its that thick...That would be like making a pinion out of titanium...Not necessary in my opinion.

Yeah, right, I remember now how thick it is.

The motormount is seperated from the diff-holder bytheway.

Good thing to hear. Thanks, my friend.

And is about 1/4" thick in its current configuration - Thanks Serum.... You da man - ( ps - got my MGM heatsink figured out - so ill get ya a couple that hold 30mm fans for you to have at.... i mean if you still want ):005:

Where can I wiew the pics? I think I missed them somehow.

Find the " Quark Durability Test" thread using the search engine.

Thank you.

Cant you use the new stampede slipper? Cause its a revo slipper.

The slipper is the same, you need a Revo spur either way....Whats the point?

Traxxas did a great job on the slipper.. And they know that. They are using it in allmost all their vehicles now. It's only a matter of time that the new e-maxx will also use them.

Currently working on a conversion kit. Could be ready by the end of October.

I'll offer them to Mike then to you all the RC-M members if anyones interested.

Conversion for what?:032:

yes do show & tell....but i think I'll stick to the slipperential...since I saw it work first hand and it performed great.....but it would be nice to see what your working on as well

Two words...GOT PICS?

I think your confused dude....it's suppose to be got milk.....not pics....but a good one to say the least

I think you both are wrong.

it's YOU GOT MAIL..

Bet you say that to all the girls SJCRSS....

Very funny serum....I've been married almost 10 years now...maybe back in the day when i was single.....but not now......now i say...give me some $$$......long pause...please....

A conversion to fit the Traxxas REVO 3.3 Slipper into an E-maxx transmission.

Prototypes should be "in action" shortly.

Anyone interested?

Erhm, wel werrhhmm lemethink..

YEAH!

Man is that ever sad! That happened to me too!

:002:

You guys are playing instruments on the street to collect the money for RC now?

Yes. Care to donate?

"Will work for RC"

BTW procharged, if you are planning on putting the slipper up for sale, would you please contact Mike about this first?

Thanks..

Pics please, they beat a thousand words anyday.
If Mike says its ok to market them here I'm sure you will have quite a few customers on this forum alone not to mention Ebay!
:018:

On the subject of slippers. Would anyone be up for making a non slipper that will fit the ofna 51t spurs? I keep destroying strobe pads, and I have the slipper locked tight as possible.

C'mon slipperential! Eagerly awaiting...
