I had mine slip more than I liked once. I was running it loose and letting it slip allot. Too much really. It basically glazed the slipper pads over and it seemed to slip no matter how hard I tightened it.

It was a simple fix. I just took it apart and rubbed the pads on some fine sandpaper to get the glaze off and then did the same thing to the metal rings the pads slip against and it was good as new again. Any slipper clutch requires maintenance. Even the little ones in the 1/10 cars with the lightweight cars. This kind of thing should be fairly routine maintenance for any slipper clutch.
