RE: schumo king tiger wheel bearings ?
Thanks. I drilled out the brass bushings a little bit and now it spins freely. I'm wondering if I should have gotten ball bearings instead of these bushings. Anyone have any experience with ball bearings vs these bushings? Thanks.

schumo king tiger wheel bearings ?
I just got the Schumo wheel bearing kit (KT0028FO) for my Tamiya King Tiger and it seems like the tolerances are too tight. The axles are very difficult to turn. Anybody have this problem? Any solutions? Thanks.

bk lehner esc programming cable problem
I've got an older BK 18120 micro esc and am having trouble connecting to a pc. I built my own cable following the schematics that I found on the Lehner website and it seems to work, but is inconsistent. I can only connect to the esc maybe 2-5% of the time. The rest of the time it says (in German) "Data reading: eeprom read errors and/or missing". I've checked the connections and the circuit many times and everything looks good. I'm using a lab power supply at exactly 5 volts and the parallel port is working. The servotester in the bk program works fine. I hooked it up to an oscilloscope and can see the pulse trains go by, but it seems like some of the data is getting corrupted and that is why it only connects infrequently and gets read errors most of the time. Has anyone built their own cable or have the same problem with an official bk cable? Here is the link to the schematic: http://www.lehner-motoren.com/download.php?la=en Any insight into this would be much appreciated. Thanks for your help

Seattle Duratrax parts?
I'm looking for some parts for my mini-quake and would like to get it this weekend. Does anyone know of a shop in Seattle that stocks MQ parts? I called everyone listed on the Duratrax website and the yellow pages, and they are either closed or don't carry duratrax. Is this a common problem with Duratrax? Thanks
