TIP 20:

Tip by Tarimon
Do you know the problem to adjust the carb on a Novarossi or R&B engine in a Kyosho MP-5 or 6?
Normally it is hardly not possible to reach the lower speed setting screw on the carb, because of the radiobox. So i drilled a hole in each side of the radiobox in the right height of the screw. In order to make the box water-resistant again I glued a piece of a pen-cover between the two holes in the box. Now it's one of the easiest things to reach the screw of the carb!   The rest you can see on the pictures.

TIP 21:

To prevent the hingpin from rotating mount a 3 m/m set screw as the picture shows.
The example is a aluminum rear hingpin holder of Thunder Tiger EB4-LE.
But all aluminum ones can be done like this as long as the thickness is enough to fit the 3 m/m set screw.

TIP 22:

 Most people snap the steering knuckles from disassembling them too many times for maintenance. Here is a good way of cleaning the bearings of the knuckle without unscrewing it from the rest of the suspension arm. Slowly file the outside housing of the knuckle enough so the ball bearing can be removed by just tapping it. That way you can remove the outside bearing without disassembling anything.
Take the inside bearing and remove the seal on the end that meets with the outside bearing of the knuckle .NOT the end that is exposed to dirt. Then put it back. That way when you remove the outside bearing you can see the inside bearing and wash it with alcohol (since you removed the seal) and all dirt goes away. Re lube
