Fyi: another way to lock a differential is to use silly putty which can also be easily removed if you'd like to unlock the diff.
@BLIND J will nondrying clay work
Holy shit thanks
Use a silicone ear plug it work perfect and its mess free when applying
cheers Tony all 'add ins' on this one welcomed
@@DriftomaniacsRC do you want to make this a drift build completely?
Gotta love it!!!! Scale version of the Lincoln locker!!!👍👍👍
Thx man ur a real one ☝️❤️
Great information,nice video
Great Video Brother nice little rig👍
Nice and easy 👊🏁
Very Cool, and Very Cheap!!!
Nice info Richie hopefully I see you at JJ Customs I was there yesterday👍👍👍
Great vedio sir for newbie like me want to learn 💕💕💕
I've seen several spools for my rustler 4x4. I've thought about putting a solid spool in the rear but I dont know if it will make it better or just break parts. Neet idea with the goo. I figured you would throw 2 part appoxy in it. The goo could probably be removed if you wanted to later though.
Hi Richie, I’m quite new to drifting rc cars, can I ask you, should I fit a locked diff front and rear, or just the rear?
I have bought the HPI RS4 after watching your videos, and so thank you for that.
Great Video, i need a drift car
silicone earplugs work well
i like the method thanks
No problem
What do I lock for doing drag racing center,rear, or front?
So are you basically just putting glue in there so it cant move and what other things can you use to lock it
Hi rich, another good simple mod video, another way which I'm sure you know of is hot glue but you have to work a bit faster font ya as it drys faster.. Happy rcing bud 👍
All tips and bonus feedback like this are much appreciated. The hot glue would be a good one when I’m in a hurry. Much appreciated!
@@DriftomaniacsRC always a pleasure richie mate 👍 hope you and family have a good new year..
Hot glue gun doesn't always work because some glue are harder than others but one wheel will eventually get lose assuming you drive a monster truck hardcore with Duratrax 3.8 six pack tires.
What would be the result if I locked my center deferential
There’s a grub screw u can tighten on the diff case that will lock it up on the rs4 sport 3. I did that in mine for a while then switched to a limited slip style diff using a bit of putty
no grub screw on the one in the creators edition diff. people keep mentioning it and I keep checking but no screw present anywhere
Ah man that’s a shame. Hpi coulda saved ppl money and effort
What’s your take on locking up the center diff with silicone earplugs on a Arrma infraction for drag racing or speed runs??
i just put 1m cst fluid in my kraton. it made a huge difference. idk if ear plugs would "lock" it up any better but i would recommend it.
Does locking center diff in infraction stop cogging on start? I’m building mine for drag racing .
no
Nice tip.
Will locking the front diff improve steering on an on-road rc car?
No it would make it worse pretty much undriveable
Did you mention why lock the diff? Just for drifting? What do you suggest for drag racing?
just for drifting although I think some use it for drag racing.
apologies you did ask what I suggested for drag racing. If your car has a centre diff then lock that center diff, I do on my cars but keep the front and rear diffs unlocked (for drag racing). Run the front lower than the rear. I really should do a whole video on the no prep drag thing (which bizarrely needs some prep to do!)
Kool video thanks bud hope u didn't get any nitro force in that coffee🤣🤙🏼
What rc car is thay i love that body
Nicely Done 👍👍 with shoegoo Richie next time try the 2 dollar plastic epoxy it sets up in 5 minutes ✌️😎👍 HFLPRCing
All tips added on to this one are most welcome and yours is a good one. Luckily this time I was in no hurry!
Still think the granite 4x4 blx 3s is worth getting over the stampede 4x4 vlx
not sure what that has to do with diff locking but you're probably right! That said you can't upgrade the 3s blx to steel diffs and the plastic ones wear out fast. The traxxas you can upgrade to 4s power as you can fit steel upgrades to everything
Driftomaniacs i did like this tutorial but I’m still debating what I should buy!
@@DriftomaniacsRC lol I was thinking that too, bit off topic.. As as it was mentioned rich, my 2019 arrma granite 4x4 3s blx come with full metal diffs not plastic. I agree though, the stampede 4x4 once upgraded will be a stronger model then the granite 4x4 3s blx but out the box it's blooming close, here in the uk the arrma is also a few hundred bucks cheaper too.. I snapped one of my granite rims the other day, arrma touch baby lol.. Happy rcing bud 👍
Hot racing has steel upgraded diff gears now for the 3s and 4s trucks FYI.
BVRC mine has steel diffs from standard. Not sure why others do not.
This works but good luck trying to replace worn out drives
What about using hot glue or something? I have also heard ear plugs?
Can you use hot glue?
Henri yes you could do!
Did you realize that grub screw on the outside of the diff....Actually locks the diff! And you don’t need to lock your diffs to drift! Just get a gyro and diff tires.
I'd just drill a hole in a thick nail and use that the whole way from the right female dogbone cup to the left one, with another nail in the hole, locking to the diff case, using the old gear holes.
I noticed Tamiya uses dum-dum to make their diffs “limited slip”, I packed mine out with the stickiest silicone grease I could find...
Do you want both front and rear diffs locked?
I’m about ready to go buy some silly putty or something and lock the diffs in my monster truck to crawl
Brake cleaner works better
Earplugs work better
yes and easier to remove
i tyed but the car was too powerfull and when you let it rest it locks again im prob going to jb weld or real tig weld
Chewing Gum?
