Clutch engagement

[agenttnk]

Hey, i have the .25ss engine with the 3 cluthch shoe and RB steel clutch bell and spur gear and i was wondering if theres something i could put on the shoes to give them more grip like powder or something.. cause i can do little wheelies but it sounds like the clutch is slipping to much and the slipper cluthch is 1/2 turn from tight

You could try putting a dab or two of CA glue on each pad ad let it dry i remeber hearing or reading of people doing that on larger scale rc's

The other recommendation I would make would be to scuff sand the contact surface of the shoes very slightly. Just enough to rough them up a bit. You could also do the same to the interior surface of the clutch bell. This would create a little more friction and allow for a bit more grab.

or you can a set of aluminum shoes for 20.00 on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=49215&item=5908970063&rd=1

so the aluminum is better than the stock plastic? i want it so that it would take off right away like the racing clutch for my rs4 3
