It is the the same drawing only streched-out
I can understand its difficult to understand how it works......... Just remove one side of the slipper and see if the other side will still work. |

hi, after yesterday testing and have no problem with the car after four batteries the car seems to have a very good
corner entering, very agressive but it loses steering under throtle (mid-out corner), the track was very slippery and wet so the grip wasn´t good, nevertheless I used bow tie rear and hole shot front and the car had a great traction, very good. the test I made against a friend with a losi xxx-4, my friend is much better pilot than I but my car works very well ,traction, corner entering and no rear slip was the key for racing with him almost at the same time. The car lost some front traction passing through the dubbies we have at the begining of the main straight because of the light up of the front train, no matter, I speeded up equal or better than xxx-4 and brake better so in the straight I eat him and in some corners too. first battery the differential finished a bit hot, I could hear the diff working hard at the beginning of the main straigth but no loosening happend and the diff was ok at the end. I tighten it a bit for the second batt and all was ok, I think I will need to tight it a bit more if we have more grip another day (is the usual)

From what i have heard no.
The b44 slipper means the shaft lengths are different and they dont use MIP cvds where they enter the gear boxes. This is only what i have been told i have not tried to myself. Lee |

Thomas, the outdrives will not fit, the gearbox of the NTC3 (BJ4WE) has the outdrive support bearing closer spaced. However... There are ways to make them fit, and of course all of the other parts as well if you really want to use the B44 slipper. I have a race coming up this weekend where I hope to put my little "B44 slipper in Bj4WE" to the test. I will have feedback on it next week. Some of the main challenges with the project are these: * The whole slipper assembly sits higher in the B44 (to allow larger spurs) * The motor sits higher as well in the B44 (not a prob in it self except that you move up the C/G even further). * Outdrives are longer (support bearings are wider spaced), and the gearboxes themselves are very different so it is not possible to bolt on B44 boxes either to allow the wider spacing of the bearings * B44 and Bj4WE top decks, even though they look very similar around the slipper assembly, is not compatible, screw holes are offset * Slipper assembly top holder blocks are then of course also very different even though they look very similar If someone else is working on this, please share your solutions and ideas. Regards, Roy |

BJ4WE Slipper Conversion
Hi guys,
As promised I have put together a .pdf guide that hopefully will help at least some of you guys out. I tried to attach it to the post, but it was unfortunately too big (260KB). However, It can be downloaded here. Please let me know what you think. Take care. //Roy |

Well worth the money if you ask me And by the way, did I ever mention it was going to be cheap?

And what, have the B44 snap in half on the first hard landing and then have to spend another 100 for replacement parts?

Apologies for the resurrection of this old thread, but I've just found it while researching what to do about the slipper in my BJ4WE.
I'm weighing up either doing this mod, or fitting a B44 slipper and centre shaft mod, mentioned in another thread, and the PDF instructions are available online, I found them with Google. What are the handling differences likely to be between the two? What kind of surfaces does each favour? It's possible I would build one BJ4WE for each surface type. Jordix hasn't been here in a while, and I believe he sold his BJ4WE. Quote:
