im sure many have stated this before me. But while using the TaylorRC clutch shoe holder(plate), one must use thicker washers(so 4 in total). The stock washer are a tiny bit too thin even when you stack them. i'd call this solution 1 -thicker stacked washers 4x. solution 2 is completely removing the TaylorRC part and replacing it with stock, which is more work but in the long run keeps your drivetrain running smooth! Im glad you pointed this out for people who are interested in this TaylorRC part.
Well great video thanks for sharing this. I certainly appears that there is just o much meat on that clutch piece. I personally like the stock ones myself because that billet draws heat. I know its supposed to cool but Im willing to best that piece gets hotter that the stock , let alone the binding issues! RB innovations made something like this I called it a bad innovation hahaha! Glad you got it spinning free! That was a lot of work tearing that down!!
My next car is going to be one of these I love them I had one when I was about 16 17 but didn't no much about rc then couldn't even fix my self but now I know a lot about rc and fix them
Yes, it does but you don't want to be piling up shims to take up the space there. Too much torque. That's why Zenoah and CY only recommend and use 1 shim. I got an answer from Taylor and will have it in a new video soon.
I sent Mike dimensions of the cooling plates. He said some earlier models were shorter and not compatible with Zenoah or CY clutches. He sending me replacements.
the stock clutch mount will break at higher rpm and power i use the FG10530 FG teflon clutch FG7472 tuning clutch bell for more cooling and never have any problems with mine
YOU'R RIGHT ON THE TROUBLESHOOTING PROBLEM, COOLING CLUTCH MOUNT. R&D ERROR TAYLER RC,MONEY BACK OR FIX IT? I USED A ROVAN COOLING FAN CLUTCH MOUNT NO PROBLEMS YET
Go to a machine shop and have the guys mill a few millimetres off the face so that you don't need shims and you will have some clearance from the face and the clutch shoe plates
is what happens if you dont have an actual engineering team. whoever designed and built alot of 5th scales just did it all wrong. u need to remove 500 parts to get to one thing. and all these aftermarkets seem to have problems with fitment. or need a bandaid like shims..
You don’t want to use many shims on the clutch Mount because of the torque involved. I’m in contact with Taylor RC and will have a update video coming soon. Thanks for your comments.
