Brakes

Anyone else having problems trying to add the integy 4 wheel brake system to their 5bss. Seems like no matter the adjustment I was getting way too much drag, bad enough I took them off for the time being?? ANY HELP??

From what i hear the integy brakes are junk. If they are the early version they are even worse. Front brakes in general take a lot of time to get dial in just right also.

I have the version #1's and after I had them dialed in they worked great but for racing I didn't like them they made the car push hard in the turns, I did not know they made a 4 wheel kit?are you talking about the rear dual Cf disc brake kit that replaces the stock rotors?

Integy is your problem. Most people on here have had bad experiences with them. They don't use good quality materials or have much in the way of quality control. Their customer support is non-existent or worse.

How is it my problem? I had another company on before this and they were worse...Front disc brake just do not work that great on dirt there have been other that have used other name brands that have had the same issues with the brakes "pushing "while going hard into the turns on dirt..

I have been looking at possibly adding brakes to my 5b. After several bad experiences with Integy products, they didn't even make the list. The brand that I've seen recommended most often on other sites has been the RAMtech kit:

I have heard the Integy Front Brakes are pretty good if you upgrade the cables they come with.

hndaman1--- You should use a 3rd Servo for the front brakes and get a 3or4 channel transmitter/receiver that has break mixing. Then you can adjust front and rear independently like 60rear/40front. You can also set a delay so that the rear brakes come on just before the fronts to stop the "Dive" when breaking so you can maintain steering. Then you can also assign brake mixing to a button and toggle it on or off. Off and you would be back to rear brakes only
