With the diff, tighten it up fully but gradually, while twisting the diff now and again so everything settles properly. Dont go and over tighten it though,, you dont need to be Mr T (sucker!). Once its carefully fully tightened then back it off 1/8th of a turn.
With the slipper, you need to set it at the track really. It shoul slip for about a foot or so before biting.
Thanks, what do you mean it should slip for a foot? How do I go about testing that? At the moment it's pretty tight so i'm guessing it's not actually doing anything (don't matter as havn't used it yet due to a wierd servo problem) so should probably loosen it. A guy said that he had it so that the screw was only just on the rod thing... mines like 4/5 complete turns on I think!
