I’m having the same problem. Part# ARA310946 keeps braking at the rear driveshaft hookup.

Amain is showing a different picture of the part compared to horizon hobby. Amain is claiming it is 4s but works 3s too. It looks stronger the back is smooth. Maybe made from different metal? Anyone know about this difference? Picture of the amain part# ARA310946
What you might be seeing is the new V3 slipper isn’t as long on the backside, at least that’s what rumors are anyways. Both will be fine. The 3S and 4S line have always used the exact same slipper hub. The 4S line just had a metal spur with an extra slipper pad.
I just got it in the mail and it’s not any different, same part.I assume you're putting good bearings in when you replace the slipper?
Have you checked your input gears and differentials? Looking at your photo, it seems to me the slipper hub would snap that way if the input gear/differential gets jammed. A bad bearing in the slipper or having the slipper too tight could also be a cause.I’m having the same problem. Part# ARA310946 keeps braking at the rear driveshaft hookup.
Yep. I think your right! I just fried my rear differential gear after the second battery pack after fixing the slipper. I’m just going to do a full tear down and look at everything, plus I have a new set of bearings I’ve been wanting to put on. ThanksHave you checked your input gears and differentials?

Did you manage to find a solution for this problem?Slipper hubs keep breaking on me I just want to get rid of the whole slipper if I could
Well guys I think I may have found a simple fix for the spline cracking issue on the slipper clutch to diff side. I installed the bearing as usual but took one of the factory bearings cut the outer race off the bearing and emptied it so that only the inner cage was left and then put the inner cage on the end of the slipper clutch hub I put a bit of gorilla glue around the inside of the race to keep it in place and keep it tight. Also this gorilla glue expands so it will keep pressure on the shaft and the splines went under torsional load. We'll see how long this lasts now but very easy and cheap possible fix.I’ve attempted to make a spool for my Typhon 3S too. I tried using an 8mm shaft with the CVD ends to connect the splines. The issue for me is bearing support on the rear input. If I had a CNC I could probably make a rear plate that could support it all. I’ve thought about buying a cheap Chinese aluminum motor mount to adapt to work. I’ve just been busy with other projects and let this one slide. It will get some time this winter.
