Nice, bit slow but very nice, geared perfectly so it whispers. If i had the money i would have a set of those wishbones as it does look stunning

OptimaFan 17-10-2014 07:45 PM

Slow? I think it will easily do 50 km/h or more on a flat surface. Does it run brushed or brushless?

isobarik 17-10-2014 10:19 PM

Alcyon usually drives brushless

I was planning on keeping the one-way unlocked so it only brakes on the rear wheels, or does this affect the handling under power as well?

Hi guys that lazer is fitted with team powers 10 5t motor with orca vx esc that is boosted to 15degrees . The speed is more than enough for where i am running.
i urge you guys to lock the one was because I am worried the loose one way may brinnel or wear out the shaft at that area.

Welshy40 18-10-2014 11:05 AM

Locking the one way is the way to go and actually doesnt really change much so worth doing. Braking with a permanent 4wd shouldnt affect the handling if set up well.

Ok speed was good for that motor but can handle a lot more. What pinion did you use?

Rama also what issue did you have with the layshaft?

Welshy40 18-10-2014 11:07 AM

Dan, do you race against Jody Denner?

I am not really facing issues with the layshaft..but with the rw spurs. I am using the smaller section pads and one of my spurs melted.
the other one wobbles. So i wonder if rw has tolerance issues because one spur fit perfectly while the other had a noticable gap. And yes i installed the correct type for the b4 and not the old type. My pinion is 24 tooth so final ratio is 9.2

Welshy40 18-10-2014 05:56 PM

Think slipper was a bit loose as i had the same issue. Plus found the high torque slipper pad far superior as its a bigger pad.

Hi James not sure which Dan you meant but if you meant me, I am yet to race, haven't actually built something that runs yet, but I am getting clsoer! Fibrelyte will be taking care of my order next week and my anodising is well under way

BTW I was meaning to ask, if you use a standard layshaft which layshaft does the RW spur work with, the ZX or the ZX-R layshaft?

alcyon 19-10-2014 03:57 AM

I beleive i found the problem of the wobbling spur. Welshy have a look at your slipper. Remove the spring. Look at the outer plate. It seems the flat part of the shaft isnt long enough to support the outer plate to keep it straight. I compared against my optima mid shaft and the flat part is only about 0.5mm inside the plate. Whereas the zx one is about 1.5mm inside. Solution is to lengthen the flat part by 1mm. See if i am right.

alcyon 20-10-2014 10:25 AM

I will get a new prototype made up very quickly. I tested my ZX at a new track and found one annoying problem besides the wobbly spur causing some noise.

The front inner block keeps coming off after a hard knock on the arms. So I bought some longer screws today and hopefully this will solve the problem. Will re test my lazer on Wednesday and hope I can finish a pack without any more issues.
