Infraction Hey guys I got a new toy...

[RC enabler]

Okay I got a new infraction I'm wondering about the diff fluid what weight should I be running a center the front and the rear it doesn't want to do like a cyclone donut it's like it hesitates when I let off the steering and it takes off so I'm thinking it has something to do with the diff fluid and does anybody know where I can get those mud guards besides scorched RC in the UK and any other tips would be greatly appreciated

I personally run a center spool, with 500k in the front and rear, in my infraction. It handles like a dream!

You mean like a locker

Yup, my spool is out of a limitless. I switched out the spur to a 44 tooth. The stock limitless spool comes with a 34 tooth.

I really like 500k center, 60k front, and 30k rear. Drifts beautifully!

What would the benefit be running a spool in the center? I thought its mainly used in speed runners? Thank you

It ensures that the front and rear both receive even 50/50 power from the motor.

Is it good for bashing/drifting?

The other benefit is the use a smaller spur gear to allow for larger pinions. The stock motor mount has a limited size of total tooth count (TTC) and by reducing the spur size, you can increase the pinion.

So a spool replaces the center differential?

Yes it does. Like "Sargent_Horse" mentioned; it provides equal power to the front and rear wheels. In my opinion a spool is so much better than a center diff.
