BL Revo using Revo Transmission?

I was going to do that, but already steering is suffering. It was a good idea, but I just don't like it. Too bad too, because that CD is really a nice design!

Been looking thru the TRX site and the setup sheets as well, and the general concensus is that the TRX CD needs 500K oil. Even 300K is too light. A Main hobbies and others has a Kyosho 500K for ~$13.

Brian, how's the 2nd gear locker still doing? Fine I suppose. :) When you notched holes for the screws, did you notch the gear or the metal clutch or both? May get the 2nd gear locker form B0gh0s, but may try your meth 1st (free is always good :) )

I notched the metal clutch, then the 4mm screws threaded themselves in to the gear. I used a Dremel with one of these bits. It's almost exactly the same diameter as the 4mm screws. So far so good, it's holding up great.
