Torsen is holding pretty good, changed oils after ~2h, i thought i do break-in. No wearing to be noticed.
It works great on launch, it does wheely for less than 0,5 sec and then off it goes.
My gearing is about stock, changed torsen spur to 52t (had to be made) and pinion is 14t, motor is Medusa 36-80-2200kv with 2x 4S Zippy-R 4800mah 25C.
I dont know if its torsen or my chassis rear balanced, but it understeers.
Well its pretty hard to say yet, how it does, as we have snow on ground here, so not much traction, to test transmission strenght.
But yeah, for those who suffer from front wheels ballooing with open centerdiff and wheelies with solid centerdiff, torsen is great choise.
I use HongNor (OFNA) torsen. There is many other brands, prices go 60-200€.
Torsen is more common centerdiff in RC Formula Offroad and front/reardiff in Buggy competitions.
edit. I have upgraded torsen's bolts that hold spur from 3mm to 4mm. To make it more durable.
