Stock diffs are good for drifting...for track racing using rubber tires well tuned diffs help handing big time..i actually just got this blue car..diffs are very tight i need to take appart and maybe do some smoothing out than add a lot of grease....thanks for sharing
It's OK to use lubricant. I use Super White Lithium Grease. I also grease the wheel hub, inside the bearings. If the Diffs are out of alignment, and you go from forward to reverse rapidly, you can strip the diff and blow the gear out of alignment within the housing. I have an upgraded ESC with reverse and brake. The braking action I think is what cause it to strip.
ok and nice. thats good to know, thanks for watching my video. i will also be upgrading my esc and reciever at some point in the near future so that i can fine tune things a bit more. what car do you have?
Hey there dude. I bought another wltoys Xd. I found something interesting. It seems that the wltoys 284161 my model and variation has a throttle adjuster or so i think which is why whenever i turn my RC, i usually end up losing 20% to 30% of power from the motor. My new 284010 has none of this issues. Kind of dissapointed that i have to buy another one to see if there is a problem. I might return this 284161 and see if it is trully a feature of maybe a true problem. Sucks that i already invested a lot onto this specific model. I also noticed that the motherboard of the two cars, though are the same my 284161 has a blue board compared to the 284010 which is green. They are the same layout but the difference is the ending digits of my 284161 is AZ 1117D -5.0E1 111JG1 or 111JC1 ( cant read it well cause it is too small) Az 1117D 5.0E1 216M91. Could be be different parts or could be a defect, i am unsure what to call it but it kind of feels like i have been rob sometimes knowing it is limited due to an error or a design choice
thats interesting, yah man sometimes it just is what it is n you gotta make the best of it, whatever problem you face though you will be able to overcome it, just remember its all about having fun. I would just return the one your having issue with or just repurpose it, maybe use it to experiment with. anyways i hope everything works out for you and i really appreciate you watching my videos :)

Lucas Engine Oil additive. Its amazing!!
Are you referring to the Lucas engine oil stabilizer?
Grease moves out of the way. The Lucas Additive sticks to the gears. Thats what its designed for..
Thanks for the tip i will definitely try that :)
Or red n tacky grease from Lucas.
You wanna get it on every gear of the diff.
