Frog, Blackfoot, Monster Beetle. Is Frog a gray chassis, and BF and MB are red? Other than chassis color, are the chassis the same?

Basically, yes. Little changes here and there, but the chassis itself is the same.

There is also the dark grey King Blackfoot chassis. Like the Bush Devil, the ORV chassis is the only thing in common with earlier versions.

Does anyone know the size of the "Bellcrank Shims" used on RC10 Worlds (ReRe) ?
- these shims are included in the ASC6254 Bellcrank Set

Or is there a good alternative to replace these shims?


Thanks!

Yes.

I have used them in place of the nylon versions.

The JConcepts bellcranks are aluminum copies of the Worlds version, and they use an identical shim.

The top set look like a 2wd front set (advance engineering?), the bottom set, agreed with above.

Schumacher Bosscat has one-way front driveshafts. I understand "why" they did it, but will have to pull one apart to see "how". Before I owned a set, I assumed they worked like the rear hub on a bicycle, but now that I have them I notice they are silent. :? There must be a clutch of some kind.


Edit: Maybe it is a tiny version of this:

The anti-reverse on fishing reels use the same type bearing.
