Nova adjustable clutch shoes

[Diver6127]

Change the way your clutch engages, by simply adding, or moving the set screw weights. The set screws don't weigh much, but at 25,000 RPM a little weight will cause a faster, stronger hook up. The weight of these shoes are the exact same as your original carbon shoes. The biggest difference, because they are made from 7075 aluminum, they will grab better, and last longer than any other clutch shoes on the market.


If you prefer a lighter shoe, drill them out, the pilot holes are already there, this is not recommended, but if you want a custom hard slamming engagement, most of the work is done for you. Run your favorite springs, and tune these shoes to your exact needs. Included with the shoes are 1/8", 1/4" 4-40 TPI set screws and .050" Allen wrench.

=================================
I came across this on RCXotic.com I was wondering if anyone has ever used it? I was thinking of putting this on my ntc3 if possible.

Does anyone have anything to say about these clutch shoes?

I say they are pretty darn cool. I was reading on another forum where people drill holes in their clutch shoes and use special springs to increase bottom end performace. The Nova system would make clutch tuning a science and not a hoky poky hillybilly going after his shoes with a drill bit.

Good find! thanks for brining the information here.
