Official Erevo 1/8 scale center diff thread

[isuck@rc]

I'd love to make two of these for my revos but i lack the tools necessary and being a site work (construction rigging) i work very long hours (up to 70 a week) would realy love to be able to get the power down in my revos they certainly are so torquey it's not funny.

If you saw the tools I used to build mine you would fall over laughing. 1970's era bench grinder and 1950's era drill press. The key thing is getting the right drill bits, carbide. I'd like to say the spot annealing helped, but I have no baseline to compare it to.

Wasn't someone playing around with using a Kyosho plastic spur instead of the hardened steel spurs? How did that turn out?
